| Cruiser Maxx Potato Insecticide and Fungicide thiamethoxam + fludioxonil | IRAC 4A; FRAC 12 | G | 0.19 to 0.27 fl oz/100 lb seed See Label | 12 h | This product will limit the spread of Fusarium spp. from infected seed during the cutting and planting process, but it will not cure disease already in the seed. Some Fusarium strains have shown reduced sensitivity to fludioxonil, so rotating or combining modes of action is important for resistance management. | |
| Cruiser Maxx Vibrance Potato thiamethoxam, fludioxonil, difenoconazole, sedaxane | IRAC 4A; FRAC 12, 3, 7 | G | 0.5 fl oz/100 lb seed See Label | 12 h | This product will limit the spread of Fusarium spp. from infected seed during the cutting and planting process and should suppress some of the disease already in the seed. | |
1Mode of action. NC = not classified..
2 Efficacy ratings denote the relative ability of a pesticide to control its target. The ratings are E = excellent, G = good, F = fair/suppression; P = poor, and ND = no data. Efficacy ratings are based on the inherent toxicity of the pesticide against its target, the likelihood that the target will contact or ingest the product as applied, duration of impact on the target, and undesired effects, such as negative impacts on natural enemies that could lead to future pest outbreaks.
3 Rate per acre per application. Refer to the product label for maximum use rate per season.
4 Reentry interval.
5The minimum pre-harvest interval. Some products do not list PHI.
Note: always read and follow the directions on the pesticide label.
