Resistance
Strains of certain cereal diseases with decreased sensitivity to triazole fungicides are known to exist in the UK. Where these occur or develop the activity of the epoxiconazole component of Opus Team may be reduced.
Opus Team contains epoxiconazole, which is 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 Fungicide Resistance Action Group (FRAG)- UK web-site.
Crops
Opus Team is a systemic fungicide for use in winter wheat, spring wheat, winter barley, spring barley, triticale, rye and oats.
Time of Application
Apply Opus Team at the start of foliar disease attack. A maximum of two applications can be made up to and including flowering just complete in winter and spring wheat, rye and triticale and up to and including emergence of ear just complete in winter and spring barley and oats.
For optimum effect against eyespot with Opus Team apply between the leaf sheaths erect and second node detectable stages of the crop.
For protection against Fusarium ear blight and sooty mould on the ears of winter and spring wheat, apply Opus Team during ear emergence.
For control of Septoria tritici and Septoria nodorum, treatment should normally be made after the third node detectable stage when disease is present and when weather favouring disease development has occurred. A follow-up treatment may be necessary if conditions continue to favour disease development.
Rate of Application
Apply 1.5 litres Opus Team in 200 litres of water per hectare. Increase the water volume where
the crop is dense.
Mixing and Spraying
Apply as a MEDIUM spray, as defined by BCPC.
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.
When tank mixes are to be used, each product should be added separately to the spray tank, taking due note of any instructions given as to the order of mixing.
