Application

Supported non-ionic surfactants for use with Miravis® Ace, Miravis® Era and Miravis® Bold

January 23, 2023

Miravis® Ace, Miravis® Era and Miravis® Bold fungicides are formulated with ADEPIDYN® to deliver power, spectrum and stamina for protection against Fusarium head blight in cereals and Sclerotinia in canola, respectively.

Each product should be tank mixed with a non-ionic surfactant (NIS) to help ensure consistent performance. When combined with an NIS at the labeled rate, we see better product coverage, increased retention of spray particles on the target, and ultimately, better product performance.

As per the product labels, add non-ionic surfactant to achieve a final concentration of 0.125% v/v in the spray tank.

NIS products supported by Syngenta for use with Miravis® Ace, Miravis® Bold and Miravis® Era include:1

  • Agral® 90 (92%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • Agsurf II® (90%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • LI700 (80%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • Activate Plus® (90%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • Sentry™ (90%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • CO-OP® Surfactant NI (100%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • HiActivate® (90%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • Liberate® (100%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • Pro-Surf II™ (90%): Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • Keysal™ 90: Add at 1.25 L per 1000 L/water
  • MasterLock®: Add at 3.25 L per 1000 L/water (this rate will deliver a final NIS concentration of 0.125%)

Here’s the formula to determine how many litres of NIS you need to add to your tank: Rate of NIS listed above x Litres of spray solution in the tank* / 1000 = Litres of NIS needed

*1 imperial gallon = 1.201 US gallons; 1 US gallon = 3.785 litres

For example, Farmer A is planning to use Agral 90 with their Miravis® Bold application and would like to know how much Agral 90 to add to the 3,636 L (800 gallons) of spray solution in their tank. The calculation would be:

1.25 L (rate of Agral 90 per 1,000 L of water) x 3,636 L spray solution in the tank / 1000 = 4.55 L of Agral 90

1 Syngenta will support the tank mixes that are listed in this chart, as well as all tank mixes that are presently included on product labels. If a tank mix is not on this list, then anyone who applies or recommends an unlabeled mix does so at their own risk and liability. Should growers, crop advisors, agronomists, retailers or provincial extension staff make tank mix recommendations that are not registered nor supported by Syngenta, they are assuming the liability.

Follow all precautions and restrictions on the label of each product.

Supported NIS products listed above have been tested for compatibility in the tank, but not all have been tested for crop safety or performance.

Always read and follow label directions. Miravis® Era is a co-pack of Miravis® Era A and Miravis® Era B fungicides. ADEPIDYN®, Agral®, Miravis®, and the Syngenta logo are trademarks of a Syngenta Group Company. Other trademarks are property of their respective owners. © 2023 Syngenta.
