As part of the chlorothalonil task force Sipcam have championed the use of chlorothalonil in UK agriculture particularly in cereal fungicide disease control where the threat of resistance to other actives is a constant risk, and alternative products are limited. We have fought hard on a European level to retain this key active but regrettably the EU Standing Committee voted for non-renewal of chlorothalonil approval. The use up/sell out period has yet to be defined, and so the use of this key […]
Sipcam’s microencapsulated clomazone herbicide products Mohawk CS & Sirtaki CS can be used on a wider range of crops than before and no longer have a 10m non-target plant buffer zone. Peas, beans and carrots are added to the labels which already included winter and spring oilseed rape and potatoes. In addition to removal of the buffer zone the hazard phase has been removed from the labels. Technical update sheets can be found for Mohawk CS and Sirtaki CSRevised labels will […]

With the recent wet weather crops are in danger of developing N deficiencies. Heavy rain washes away soil mineral nitrogen and applied nitrogen, causing problems as crops start rapidly growing. Sipcam’s Efficient N is a combination of readily absorbed N in both the ureic and urea polymer forms designed to support strong and healthy crop development. Ureic N is readily converted to protein for growth, whilst Polymer N releases N as crops mature. For more details click .
A number of recent technical communications on cereal disease control have correctly stated that some brands of chlorothalonil may only be applied twice to a crop. Some of these sources have advised that growers need to switch brands in order to apply chlorothalonil as they may wish within their programs.This is an inconvenience with some brands and unnecessary to users of Rover.

The current cold & wet weather conditions are putting over wintered crops under stress which will impact on nutrient uptake, causing the potential for reduced photosynthesis increased disease & ultimately yield loss. Oilseed rape is particularly susceptible to boron deficiency in these circumstances, so an application of Pearl 0-0-18, 6 MgO, 6S 6B, 1.5Zn at 2kg/ha is ideally suited to providing the nutrients required to maintain healthy growth this spring.
