Section 2 Recommendation
June 29, 2010 Golfdom InsiderTourney can be used on necrotic ring spot, take-all patch and other diseases.
Valent Professional Products has released a Section 2(ee) recommendation for the use of Tourney fungicide on necrotic ring spot, take-all patch and Waitea patch (brown ring patch) on turfgrass, thus adding to the broad spectrum control already provided by Tourney.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYDEC), meanwhile, has approved for immediate use a FIFRA 2(ee) Recommendation for the use of Tourney (EPA Reg. No. 59639-144) to control the aforementioned unlabeled pests in the state of New York. The decision from the NYDEC follows its recent registration of Tourney for unrestricted use on golf course and landscape turf in New York.
Tourney is already labeled for control of a broad spectrum of diseases, including anthracnose, dollar spot, brown patch, fairy ring, snow mold and summer patch.
“This Section 2(ee) recommendation is of particular importance to superintendents and LCOs in New York who have long needed new tools for selective or broad-spectrum disease control," said Jill Calabro, Ph.D., plant pathologist for Valent Professional Products. "We are delighted to be able to offer them additional help in their fight against turf diseases.”
