Banol Fungicide

Banol® Systemic Fungicide is one of the most reliable and proven solutions for the control of Pythium diseases in turf and ornamental production. It delivers both preventative and curative protection, helping manage damping-off and root diseases caused by Pythium spp. across a wide range of turf and ornamental situations.

With a multi-site mode of action, Banol has an extremely low risk of resistance development, with no documented resistance cases over more than 20 years of use. For best performance, Banol should be applied early in disease-favourable conditions to prevent outbreaks and minimise turf or plant injury.

How Banol® Fungicide Works

Banol works systemically within the plant, delivering protection against Pythium by reducing spore and sporangia formation and limiting disease development within plant tissues. Its multi-site activity disrupts multiple processes in the pathogen, making resistance development highly unlikely and ensuring long-term reliability in disease management programs.

Where to Use Banol® 

Banol® Systemic Fungicide is suitable for use in:

• Golf courses

• Bowls greens
