how different spray nozzles that apply the end products are tested. It is important to be able to target the active ingredient efficiently and know that it will work under different weather conditions. Droplet size is an important issue - too fine a droplet will cause spray drift, whereas too large and a droplet may not attach itself to the target crop. The formulation of the chemical is also vitally important, in that not only does it kill the pest but it is designed to adhere effectively to the target crop and not washed off easily, thereby reducing its efficiency.
technology behind their latest product, Medallion TL Contact Plus fungicide. Fludioxonil, the active ingredient in Medallion TL, is a fungicide from the Phenylpyrrole chemical class. This group is derived from the natural antifungal pyrrolnitrin, produced by Pseudomonas pyrocinia soil bacteria. This active ingredient has been developed to ensure it is capable of controlling disease over a longer period. Its mode of action has been designed to tackle the pathogens when on the leaf, in the thatch and on the soil surface. This has been achieved by clever formulation and using a specific droplet range to hit all three areas. Medallion does not leave any residue, i.e. whiting of the leaf. However, the clever bit is in the design of the mode of action against the pathogen, acting as a protective shield that stops disease developing and prevents infection. When Medallion TL

comes into contact with disease spores it disrupts osmoregulation, causing the disease pathogen cells to rapidly absorb water, to the point where they explode and are rendered harmless to turf. This can occur on the leaf, in the thatch or soil surface. Bio chemically, the activity of Medallion TL inhibits spore germination and the growth of germ tubes, stopping fungal growth. This occurs at a time when disease spores are most sensitive, and before penetration of plant tissue causes leaf damage and spoils surface quality. The product has been trialled extensively at a number of golf clubs and sports venues with impressive results. I was shown the results of the
