Syngenta Canada has decided to end sales of Actigard 50WG in Canada after the 2015 growing season because of declining sales. Actigard 50WG is registered for the control of Blue Mold in tobacco and will be available to purchase until October, 2015. After this date, the product will no longer be available in Canada, however, the Canadian registration for Actigard 50WG will be maintained so growers who have product can still use it on their tobacco beyond this year. Use of Actigard 50WG should be within three years of purchase according to Syngenta.
Other products registered and recommended for the control of Blue Mold in tobacco are Aliette WDG and Quadris Flowable.
