Headline

Group 11

 

Headline is an innovative, broad-spectrum fungicide that delivers a high level of disease control and plant health.

  • When your plants are not challenged by disease, they can divert more energy into yield. It provides premium protection of diseases in pulse crops.
  • Headline fungicide delivers a new level of disease control in lentils, field peas, canola, dry beans, corn, cereals, flax and potatoes.

Benefits of Headline

Unprecedented Control of Key Disease

  • The formulation and chemical properties of Headline fungicide allow it to bind tightly to the waxy cuticle when applied to the leaf’s upper surface.
  • The systemic properties also allow Headline to move through the leaf and control disease on the lower surface of the leaf.
  • This unique activity enables Headline to protect both sides of the leaf regardless of the side it is applied to, delivering dual-sided protection.
  • Once applied, Headline stops spore germination, preventing spores from infecting plant tissue.
  • By interfering with fungal cell respiration and the production of energy, Headline fungicide also causes fungi to stop growing and die.

Product Info & Application Guide

When to Apply

  • Do not apply Headline more than twice in a growing season.
  • Apply a second time 10 - 14 days later if disease persists or if weather conditions are favourable for disease development.

Canola, Brassica juncea, rapeseed, mustard

  • For blackleg control apply Headline at the 2 to 6-leaf (rosette) stage.
  • For alternaria black spot control apply Headline at 20 - 50% bloom to early pod stage (90% bloom).
  • Use the higher rate to obtain extended protection with maximum yield benefits.

Lentils

  • Make the first application at row closure or at first flower, whichever comes first.

Field Peas

  • To control Mycosphaerella blight in field peas, apply Headline at the beginning of flowering or when 10% of the lower canopy is infected with disease.
  • For powdery mildew, apply a single application prior to the onset of disease or as soon as powdery mildew is detected.

Dry Beans

  • If Anthracnose is detected in the crop before flowering, apply Headline immediately.
  • In all other cases, apply Headline at early flower (20% - 50% bloom).
  • Apply Headline a second time 10 - 14 days later if disease persists or weather conditions are favourable for disease development.

Cereals

  • Apply immediately after flag leaf emergence.

Flax

  • Should be applied preventatively at mid-flower (7 - 10 days after first flower).
  • Apply a second time 10 - 14 days later if disease persists, or weather conditions are favourable for disease development.

Corn

  • For optimal control apply prior to disease development.
  • If disease persists or weather conditions are favourable for disease development, apply a second time 10 - 14 days later.

Soybeans

  • Canadian research trials indicate that, in the absence of Asian soybean rust, application of Headline at the early pod stage (R2 – R3 growth stage) results in the highest yields.
  • It is important to note that infection of untreated leaves can occur earlier if conditions are favorable for disease development.

Potatoes

  • Begin application before disease symptoms appear.
  • Use higher rates of Headline, shorter spray intervals and/or tank-mixes under heavy disease pressure.
  • To optimize Headline plant health benefits, apply within the first 3 sprays at tuber initiation.
  • Based on disease conditions, an optional 2nd application should occur at early bulking.

Sunflowers

  • For suppression of rust in sunflowers apply Headline prior to disease development.
  • Apply a second time 10 - 14 days later if disease persists.

How Much to Apply

  • Headline is formulated as a 250 g/L emulsifiable concentrate (EC) that mixes quickly in the spray tank, uniformly dispersing the active ingredient throughout the spray solution.
  • You may make two applications of Headline each growing season.
  • Do not apply Headline more than twice in a growing season.

Canola, Brassica juncea, rapeseed, mustard

  • Each 6.5 L jug of Headline contains enough fungicide to treat approximately 40 – 55 acres.
  • Do not apply more than 2 times a year.

Peas / Lentils/Soybeans

  • Each 6.5 L jug of Headline contains enough fungicide to treat approximately 40 acres.

Cereals

  • Each 6.5 L jug of Headline contains enough fungicide to treat approximately 40 – 55 acres.

Flax

  • Each 6.5 L jug of Headline contains enough fungicide to treat approximately 40 – 55 acres.

Corn

  • Each 6.5 L jug of Headline contains enough fungicide to treat approximately 27 – 40 acres.

Potatoes

  • Each 6.5 L jug of Headline contains enough fungicide to treat approximately 24 - 36 acres.

Sunflowers

  • Each 6.5 L jug of Headline contains enough fungicide to treat approximately 40 acres.
  • Apply a second time 10 - 14 days later if disease persists.

Water Volume

  • Apply Headline with a minimum 10 imperial gallons of water per acre (110/ha) by ground or 4.45 imperial gallons of water per acre (50 L/ha) by air.

Research Information – Increasing water volume will improve control, especially with later applications where there are heavy crop canopies.
