Resistance Management

Use Kingdom as part of an Integrated Crop Management (ICM) strategy incorporating other methods of control, including where appropriate other fungicides with a different mode of action.

Kingdom contains epoxiconazole, a DMI fungicide. Resistance to some DMI fungicides has been identified in Septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola) which may seriously affect the performance of some products. For further advice on resistance management in DMIs contact your agronomist or specialist advisor, and visit the FRAG-UK website.

Kingdom contains boscalid which belongs to the SDHI (carboxamide) group of fungicides. To minimise the risks of resistance occuring, apply a maximum of two SDHI fungicide sprayers per cereal crop.

Crops

Kingdom is a broad spectrum fungicide with systemic, protectant and curative properties for use in winter wheat, spring wheat, winter barley, spring barley, oats, rye and triticale for disease control as summarised above.

Time of Application

Apply Kingdom at the start of foliar or stem based disease attack. A maximum of two applications can be made up to and including flowering (anthesis) just complete (GS69) in winter and spring wheat, rye and triticale, and up to and including emergence of ear just complete (GS59) in winter and spring barley and oats.

Rate of Application

Apply 2.5 litres Kingdom in 150 to 300 litres of water per hectare.

Qualified recommendation

Kingdom may be applied at 2.5 litres per hectare in 100 litres of water per hectare although efficacy at this reduced volume has not been evaluated. Therefore application at 100 litres water per hectare is at user’s risk with regard to biological efficacy.

Following crops

After treating a cereal crop with Kingdom, onions, oats, sugar beet, oilseed rape, cabbages, carrots, sunflowers, barley, lettuce, ryegrass, dwarf French beans, peas, potatoes, clover, wheat, field beans and maize may be sown as the following crop

Mixing and Spraying

Half fill the spray tank with clean water and start the agitation. SHAKE THE CONTAINER WELL before use and pour in the required amount of product. Rinse any empty containers thoroughly and add rinsings to the spray tank. Add the remainder of the water and continue agitation until spraying is completed.

On emptying the container, rinse container thoroughly by using an integrated pressure rinsing device or manually rinsing three times. Add washings to sprayer at time of filling and dispose of container safely.
