Protect your grapes from powdery mildew with Gatten® CA Fungicide. With its unique mode of action (U13), Gatten CA is an excellent rotational option for resistance management programs in grapes. What’s more, it controls powdery mildew resistant to DMI and QoI fungicides. Gatten CA inhibits the powdery mildew pathogen from absorbing nutrients from the host plant, making it impossible for the pathogen to grow
and expand. And the translaminar movement of Gatten CA on the leaf surface provides improved protection and control, especially in dense canopies. So, if you want to protect your grapes and break the life cycle of powdery mildew, get Gatten CA Fungicide and let your crop shine.
