By far the biggest change to The UK Pesticide Guide in 2020 is the loss of a number of active ingredients that have been fundamental to many crop protection programmes.
The final use-up of chlorothalonil formulations; propiconazole, fenpropimorph, chloridazon and diquat occurs in 2020 but there are also a few of exciting new additions.
- Aclonifenis a new residual herbicide for use in potatoes that already has a number of EAMUs for use in minor crops.
- BASF is launching its new triazole,mefentrifluconazole, which promises to restore full triazole activity, at least initially.
- On the insecticide front the new active ingredient from Corteva agriscience,sulfoxaflor, is now listed for use in Cucurbitae and ornamentals under full protection for control of aphids and whitefly.
