General Information
ADEXAR is a broad spectrum contact and systemic fungicide with protectant and eradicant activity. ADEXAR is taken up via the stem and foliage and is translocated upwards and outwards to provide some protection of new growth. Thorough coverage of the crop is necessary for best results. ADEXAR has curative activity against early stages of infection but optimum results are obtained from application prior to the onset of infection.

Resistance Management
ADEXAR contains fluxapyroxad, a caroxamide fungicide from the SDHI (Succinate Dehydrogenase inhibitors) mode of action group GROUP 7 FUNGICIDE  , and epoxiconazole, a triazole fungicide in the DMI mode of action group GROUP 3FUNGICIDE . Resistance to this fungicide could develop from excessive use. To minimize this risk use strictly in accordance with label instructions and resistance management strategies that exist for any fungus listed on the label. Frequency of application must be strictly adhered to in accordance with the Directions for Use. ADEXAR should be used in a programme that incorporates fungicides with different modes of action to that of GROUP 7 and GROUP 3 fungicides. Apply no more than two ADEXAR sprays per season. Refer to the NZCPR web site (www.nzpps.org/resistance/index.php) for more detailed information.

Direction for Use
Add the required amount directly into the partly filled spray tank with agitation operating. Complete filling and maintain agitation until spraying is complete. Do NOT leave spray mix standing overnight in the spray tank.

Compatibility:
ADEXAR may be tank mixed with most commonly used fungicides, e.g. Comet®, insecticides, herbicides (e.g fluroxypyr) and growth regulators (e.g. Cycocel® or Terpal®). All tank mixes should be used mmediately after preparation.

Do NOT apply if rainfall is likely before ADEXAR dries on the crop.
