Instrata Fungicide

Instrata Fungicide is a professional three-active-ingredient turf fungicide formulated for broad-spectrum control of snow mold, anthracnose, dollar spot, brown patch, summer patch, and other labeled diseases. It combines 29.9% chlorothalonil, 4.7% propiconazole, and 1.2% fludioxonil to deliver complementary FRAC Group M05, Group 3, and Group 12 activity in one proprietary suspo-emulsion formulation.

Instrata combines multi-site contact protection with two additional single-site modes of action, providing a valuable resistance-management foundation for professional turf disease programs. It is labeled for golf courses, lawns surrounding commercial and industrial buildings, professional and collegiate athletic fields, and sod farms.

Professional Turf Use Only: Instrata is not labeled for home lawns. It is also prohibited on turf associated with daycare centers, playgrounds, playfields, recreational park athletic fields, school athletic fields, campgrounds, churches, and theme parks.

Labeled Use Sites

Instrata is labeled for disease control on golf courses, including greens, tees, fairways, and roughs; lawns surrounding commercial and industrial buildings; professional and collegiate athletic fields; and sod farms.

Instrata is not labeled for home lawns. Do not use it on turf associated with apartment buildings, daycare centers, playgrounds, playfields, recreational park athletic fields, athletic fields located on or next to elementary, middle, or high schools, campgrounds, churches, or theme parks. Do not use Instrata on fine fescue because of the potential for phytotoxicity or turf injury.

Target Diseases

Instrata controls labeled turf diseases including anthracnose, brown patch, dollar spot, gray leaf spot, gray snow mold, leaf spot, melting-out, brown blight, pink snow mold, Fusarium patch, red thread, stem rust, summer patch, and yellow patch.

Application Notes

Instrata rates range from 2.75 to 11 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft, depending on the target disease, application interval, turf site, and disease pressure. The minimum retreatment interval is 14 days. Begin preventive applications when environmental conditions favor disease development and use the higher labeled rate and shorter labeled interval under severe disease pressure.

For anthracnose, apply 2.75 to 6 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft at 14- to 28-day intervals. For brown patch, use 2.75 to 6 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft at 14- to 21-day intervals. Dollar spot applications use 2.75 to 7 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft at 21- to 28-day intervals.

For gray or pink snow mold, apply 5 to 11 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft in late fall before snow cover using at least 2 gallons of carrier per 1,000 sq ft. Do not apply on top of snow. Where the label permits, a second application may be made on greens and tees if winter conditions remain favorable for disease development.

For summer patch, apply 6 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft on a 14-day schedule or 11 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft on a 28-day schedule. Yellow patch applications use 8 to 11 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft in late fall according to site-specific directions.

Apply Instrata in at least 90 gallons of water per acre on golf course greens and tees. Use at least 30 to 40 gallons per acre on fairways, roughs, commercial and industrial turf, professional and collegiate athletic fields, and sod farms. Ground application only: do not apply by air or through an ultra-low-volume spray system using less than 3 gallons per acre.

Do not mow or irrigate treated turf until the spray deposit is thoroughly dry. Follow all site-specific annual maximums, high-rate application limits, state restrictions, environmental buffers, and tank-mix directions on the current product label.
