Press release: Opus Team now available for flax growers
The Dutch Board for the Authorisation of Plant Protection Products and Biocides (Ctgb) has re-registered
the fungicide Opus Team, and extended the authorisation with several crops including flax. This is most welcomed
by the Dutch flax growers, who urgently demand effective fungicides for mildew
control.
The
extension of the Opus Team
label was on request of BASF, in close collaboration with Plantum as
the coordinator on the availability of plant protection
products for flax growing. On behalf of the sod production sector BASF and
Plantum as well requested label extension for sod production (turf grass), but
unfortunately this could not be honored.
The Dutch Minor
Use Fund financially supported the request for label extension for flax and sod
production.
