Sipcam Agro USA Launches Carve™ Xtra: The Ultimate Turf Fungicide
Sipcam Agro USA has announced a groundbreaking addition to its product line with the introduction of
Carve™ Xtra, a state-of-the-art fungicide specifically designed to meet the challenging requirements of golf course turf health and maintenance. This innovative formulation aims to make life easier for turf managers while ensuring golf courses remain in peak condition throughout the year.
A New Era in Fungicide Technology
Engineered with insight from golf course superintendents and turf managers, Carve™ Xtra offers a highly effective dual-action approach to disease control. It is particularly effective against common turf diseases such as dollar spot, brown patch, anthracnose, and fairy ring. The combination of
azoxystrobin and
prothioconazole—proven active ingredients—delivers both preventive and curative action, making it a versatile solution that ensures turf remains healthy and lush even under high-stress conditions.
Unmatched Benefits for Turf Managers
Golf course superintendents face constant challenges in maintaining the quality and playability of greens.
Carve™ Xtra promises several key benefits that make it an invaluable resource:
1. Broad-Spectrum Protection
This advanced formulation controls
13 major turf diseases, which include summer stress pathogens that can take a toll on golf courses during the hotter months.
2. Resistance Management
The dual action of Carve™ Xtra significantly reduces the risk of developing fungicide resistance, allowing for sustained efficacy in controlling turf diseases.
3. Improved Turf Quality
Using Carve™ Xtra not only protects against diseases but also enhances the overall quality of the turf. It aids in root development, prolongs color retention, improves shade tolerance, and optimizes water use efficiency.
4. Versatile Application
This fungicide integrates smoothly into existing rotational and tank-mix programs that are in place for various golf turf types, thus streamlining application processes and boosting productivity.
Expert Insights
“Golf course superintendents require solutions that yield measurable results and provide a substantial return on investment,” stated
Dave Feist, Senior Director of Marketing at Sipcam Agro USA. “Carve™ Xtra is meticulously formulated to deliver consistent performance while supporting the long-term health of the turf.”
