Cheminova to Launch Equation Fungicide
14 August 2013 Cheminova Inc. said it plans to introduce an azoxystrobin fungicide for use on row and specialty crops upon securing EPA registration, anticipated for the 2014 season.
The fungicide would be marketed and sold under the trade name Equation Fungicide. Azoxystrobin has been manufactured and sold by Cheminova elsewhere in the world since 2011.
“Adding a strobilurin to our burgeoning fungicide portfolio would give growers more tools for crop protection throughout the growing cycle,” said Deneen Sebastian, marketing director, Cheminova. “Equation is designed to control numerous economically important diseases on labeled crops and in using it, growers would be able to equalize the odds against an outbreak.”
The product would join the company’s Topguard fungicide, launched in 2010, and Fortix fungicide, launched earlier in 2013.
