United Turf Alliance introduced ArmorTech® ZOXY™ 2 SC, a new liquid formulation of an azoxystrobin fungicide. Prior to going off patent, azoxystrobin was available to the professional turf management market as Syngenta Group Company Heritage® Fungicide.

ZOXY 2 SC is labeled for the control of many important turfgrass diseases on golf course greens, tees and fairways, as well as residential, commercial, recreational and sports turf. The highly concentrated liquid formulation contains 2.08 lbs. of active ingredient per gallon. It is a water-based product offering low odor and easy tank mixing.

"We believe the competitive economics of ArmorTech ZOXY 2 SC will provide golf course superintendents and other turf professionals more budget-friendly disease control," United Turf Alliance president Tim Zech said. "We are excited to bring the first alternate brand liquid formulation of azoxystrobin to the turf industry. It provides end users the opportunity to economically spray greens and even fairways with one of the best disease control
agents available."

The product is available in 4 x 1-gallon and 4 x 1-quart cases from United Turf Alliance members and dealer partners. The one quart container treats about 1 acre of turf at the standard use rate. Always read and follow
label instructions.

As one of the largest fungicide technologies in the market for over a decade, end users will appreciate having a competitive source for economical reasons. The liquid formulation is more concentrated than Heritage, so you use less of it per acre. Low odor and tank mix flexibility will be appreciated by end users, as well as the broad label for a wide variety of turgrass diseases. For more information go to www.utaarmortech.com.
