The Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) recently announced the approval of an URMULE registration for Milstop® Foliar Fungicide for suppression of powdery mildew on field and greenhouse mint and suppression of powdery mildew on greenhouse-grown lettuce in Canada. Milstop® Foliar Fungicide was already labeled for use on a number of crops in Canada for control / suppression of several diseases.
The mint minor use project was sponsored by OMAFRA and the GH lettuce project was sponsored by MAPAQ as a result of minor use priorities established by growers and extension personnel.
The following is provided as an abbreviated, general outline only. Users should be making pest management decisions within a robust integrated disease management program and should consult the complete label before using Milstop® Foliar Fungicide.
| Crop(s) | Target | Rate (kg/ha) | Application Information | PHI (days) |
| Mint, field and greenhouse grown | Powdery Mildew | 0.268-0.56 per 1000 m2 (GH) 2.8 – 5.6 (field) | Apply at the first sign of disease. Repeat at 7 – 14 day intervals until conditions are no longer favourable for disease development. Maximum 10 applications per season | 0 |
| GH lettuce | Powdery Mildew | 2.8 – 5.6 | Apply at the first sign of disease. Repeat at 7 – 14 day intervals until conditions are no longer favourable for disease development. Maximum 10 applications per season | 0 |
