did you know?LUNA SENSATION® FUNGICIDE IS A SYSTEMIC FUNGICIDE THAT TARGETS PROBLEMATIC DISEASES SUCH AS SCLEROTINIA ROT, POWDERY MILDEW AND MONILINIA. IT EVEN PROVIDES POST-HARVEST QUALITY BENEFITS FOR SOFT FRUIT.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Broad-spectrum fungicide with preventive and locally systemic properties

• Provides proven yield increases and improved quality

• Combines the trusted power of the fungicide active ingredients fluopyram and trifloxystrobin

• Unique chemistry even demonstrates post-harvest quality benefits during transit and storage of soft fruit

• An all-in-one formulation with two active ingredients providing two fungicide modes of action, Groups 7 & 11

• Luna Sensation contains the active ingredient fluopyram which is currently the only non-carboxamide Group 7 fungicide available giving it unique plant mobility benefits allowing uniform uptake after application

• Luna Sensation is part of the Luna® family of products, optimized for stone fruit and vegetables

APPLICATION TIPS

• Luna Sensation is best suited for use in a preventive treatment program

• Thorough coverage is essential for maximum protection. Ensure sufficient water volume and spray pressure is used.

• For all worker activities, do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas within 12 hours after application

• To minimize runoff, avoid applications when rainfall is forecasted to occur within 48 hours

• Do not store below freezing (0° C) temperatures

• For fruit crops (hops and stone fruit), apply by ground application equipment in a minimum spray volume of 500 L/ha, unless specified otherwise

MODE OF ACTION

• Group 7 (fluopyram) and Group 11 (trifloxystrobin) fungicides

FORMULATION AND PACKAGING

• 500 g/L suspension concentrate

• Available in 2 L jugs

APPLICATION TIPS (CONTINUED)

• For vegetable crops (root vegetables, leafy green and petiole vegetables, brassica leafy vegetables and cucurbits), apply in a minimum spray volume of 200 L/ha

• To limit the potential for development of disease resistance to these fungicide classes, do not make more than 2 applications of Luna Sensation or any Group 7 or Group 11 fungicide before rotating with a fungicide from a different Group

• For multi-spray crops, the total number of sprays containing Luna Sensation or any Group 7 or Group 11 fungicide should not exceed half of the total number of fungicide applications in a season
