Heritage Maxx

NATURALLY POWERFUL DISEASE CONTROL 

Heritage Maxx provides powerful protection; targeting the pathogen at the very early stages of the of infection, eliminating disease before it has chance to cause damaging effects on the turf.

The easy-to-use Maxx liquid formulation gives faster uptake, longer lasting disease control and improved turf quality. For use on established managed amenity turf and amenity grassland. 

Can be used for the control and prevention of a variety of turf grass disease like Fusarium patch, Take-all patch, Brown patch, Leaf spot/Melting out, Rust diseases (below) and Anthracnose.

• Targets disease attack before damage is caused
• Gives long-lasting protection for 28 days
• Is a systemic fungicide belonging to the strobilurin group of active ingredients
• Has natural origins
• Root, crown and foliar uptake

Broad-spectrum protection
Heritage is a systemic fungicide with preventive and curative properties for control of some of the toughest turf diseases.
 

CONTROL OF FOLIAR AND SOIL BORNE DISEASES.
This unique strobilurin is absorbed into leaves and sheaths when applied and also moves from the soil into the roots. From there, it translocates up throughout the entire blade, providing control of turf diseases for up to 28 days.

Total root-to-leaf distribution
Azoxystrobin, the active ingredient (AI) in Heritage, is taken into turf blades quickly for protection upon application. However, a significant portion of Heritage remains on the leaf surface. Upon irrigation, rainfall, or even a heavy dew, this remaining AI is washed down the surface of the turf.
Some is then absorbed into the leaf, but the majority of Heritage moves into and through thatch to the soil. Here it is further absorbed by the roots to control soilborne diseases and continues up through the entire turfgrass plant for additional foliar protection.

Excellent mobility
Once in the plant, Heritage is highly systemic and transported through the xylem to cover all leaf tissue up to the tip of the leaf blades. It also moves translaminarily to cover the underside of the leaf. The active ingredient is constantly delivered upward for gradual, even distribution to new growth.

No-compromise control
Some strobilurins have little to no root uptake at all. Others may require more watering-in order or higher water volumes to be transported to the roots, which can sacrifice foliar control of diseases like brown patch, yellow patch, anthracnose, and leaf spot. Studies show that Heritage fungicide’s degree of root uptake exceeds that of other strobilurins—like Disarm, Insignia, and Compass®—without compromising efficacy against foliar diseases.
