PRODUCT INFORMATION 

Ascernity is a broad-spectrum product containing two fungicides. It has preventative, 

systemic and curative properties. Ascernity provides excellent disease control of many 

major turfgrass diseases. Ascernity may be applied as a foliar spray and integrated into 

a resistance management program. All applications should be made according to the 

use directions that follow. 

USE RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS 

DO NOT apply more than 2.0 fl oz of Ascernity per 1000 sq ft per year (88 fl oz 

ascernity per acre per year). 

DO NOT apply by air. 

DO NOT apply through irrigation systems (chemigation). 

DO NOT spray when conditions favor drift beyond area intended for application. 

Conditions which may contribute to drift include thermal inversion, wind speed and 

direction, sprayer nozzle/pressure combinations, spray droplet size, etc. Contact your 

State extension agent for spray drift prevention guidelines in your area. 

AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR. 
Ascernity 

Page 7

PRODUCT USE INFORMATION 

Application: Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control. Make 

no more spray solution than is needed for application. For control of foliar diseases, 

allow Ascernity to completely dry prior to irrigating. For control of soil borne diseases 

Ascernity can be watered in after application. 

Adjuvants: When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Syngenta recommends 

the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association certified adjuvant. 

Efficacy: Under certain conditions conducive to extended infection periods, use 

another registered fungicide for additional applications if the maximum amount of 

Ascernity has been used. If resistant isolates to Group 3 or Group 7 fungicides are 

present, efficacy can be reduced for certain diseases. The higher rates in the rate 

range and/or shorter spray intervals may be required under conditions of heavy infection 

pressure with highly susceptible varieties, or when environmental conditions are 

conducive to disease. 

Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Ascernity should be integrated into an overall 

disease and pest management strategy whenever the use of a fungicide is required. 

Sound turf management resulting in healthy, vigorous turf is the foundation of a good 

IPM program. Cultural practices such as proper choice of turf variety, nutrient 

management, proper cutting height, thatch management, and proper watering, 

drainage, and moisture stress management should be integrated with the use of 

fungicides to increase turf vigor and reduce the susceptibility to disease. Immunoassay 

detection kits and extension service diagnostic services can assist in the early and 

accurate identification of causal organisms and corresponding selection of the proper 

fungicide when required. 

Resistance Management 

Ascernity contains two fungicides - benzovindiflupyr, a SDHI fungicide in Group 7 and 

difenoconazole, a triazole fungicide in Group 3. Fungal pathogens can develop 

resistance to products with the same mode of action when used repeatedly. Because 

resistance development cannot be predicted, use of this product should conform to 

resistance management strategies established for the crop and use area. Consult your 

local or State agricultural authorities for resistance management strategies that are 

complementary to those in this label. Resistance management strategies may include 

rotating with products having different modes of action or limiting the total number of 

applications per season. Syngenta encourages responsible resistance management to 

ensure effective long-term control of the fungal diseases on this label. Ascernity should 

not be alternated or tank mixed with any fungicide to which resistance has already 

developed. 

Some turf disease pathogens are known to have developed resistance to products used 

repeatedly for their control. Ascernity should be alternated with other registered 
Ascernity 

Page 8

fungicides that have a different mode of action and to which pathogen resistance has 

not developed. Since Ascernity is a SDHI fungicide (Group 7 fungicide) and a DMI 

fungicide (Group 3 fungicide), avoid alternation with other SDHI and DMI fungicides. 

Turfgrass Tolerance: Ascernity plant tolerance has been found to be safe for all 

turfgrass species on the label, however, not all possible tank mix combinations have 

been tested under all conditions. When possible, it is recommended to test the 

combinations on a small portion of the turf to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not 

occur as a result of application. 

Spray Drift Management: To avoid spray drift, do not apply when conditions favor drift 

beyond the target area. The interaction of many equipment and weather related factors 

determine the potential for spray drift. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE 

APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR AND THE 

GROWER. 

MIXING AND APPLICATION METHODS 

Spray Equipment 

Nozzles 

 Equip sprayers with nozzles that provide accurate and uniform application. 

 Nozzles should be the same size and uniformly spaced across the boom. 

 Calibrate sprayer before use. 

 It is suggested that screens be used to protect the pump and to prevent nozzles 

from clogging. 

 Screens placed on suction side of pump should be 16-mesh or coarser. 

 Do not place a screen in the recirculation line. 

 Use 50-mesh or coarser screens between the pump and boom, and where 

required, at the nozzles. 

 Check nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations. 

Pump 

 Use a pump with capacity to: 

1. Maintain 35-40 psi at nozzles. 

2. Provide sufficient agitation in tank to keep mixture in suspension - this 

requires recirculation of 10% of tank volume per minute. 

 Use a jet agitator or liquid sparge tube for agitation. 

 Do not air sparge. 

For more information on spray equipment and calibration, consult sprayer 

manufacturers and state recommendations. For specific local directions and spray 

schedules, consult the current state agricultural recommendations.

Mixing Instructions 

To prepare spray solution, partially fill the spray tank with clean water and begin 

agitation. Add the specified amount of Ascernity to the tank, allowing time for good 

dispersion, then add an adjuvant, if recommended. If tank mixes are required, product 

should be added to the spray tank in the following order: WG or dry flowable 

formulations, wettable powders and flowable (aqueous suspensions) products. Finish 

filling the tank to the desired volume to obtain the proper spray concentration. Maintain 

agitation throughout the spraying operation. Do not allow spray mixture to stand 

overnight or for prolonged periods. Make up only the amount of spray required for 

immediate use. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned immediately after application. 

Do not use silicone based products with Ascernity due to possible phytotoxicity. 

If spray-tank mixture is unsprayed for more than 18 hours (overnight), re-suspend 

product with agitation for 20 minutes.

 Ascernity is a SL (Soluable Liquid) formulation. 

 Prepare no more spray mixture than is required for the immediate operation. 

 Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product. 

 Agitate the spray solution before and during application. 

 Rinse spray tank thoroughly with clean water after each day’s use and dispose of 

pesticide rinsate by application to an already treated area. 

Ascernity Alone (No Tank Mix)

 Add 1⁄2-2⁄3 of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank. 

 With the agitator running, add Ascernity to the tank. 

 Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water. 

 Begin application of the spray solution after Ascernity has completely dispersed 

into the mix water. 

 Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been sprayed. 

Ascernity + Tank Mixtures: Ascernity is usually compatible with many tank mix 

partners registered for use on turf. 

If tank mixes are desired, observe all directions, precautions, and limitations on labeling 

of all products used. Consult compatibility charts or your local or state turf authority for 

compatibility information. Do not combine Ascernity in the spray tank with pesticides, 

surfactants, or fertilizers; unless compatibility charts or your own prior use has shown 

that the combination is physically compatible, effective, and non-injurious under your 

conditions of use. 

To determine the physical compatibility of Ascernity with other products, use a jar test. 

Using a quart jar, add the proportionate amounts of the products to 1 qt. of water. Add 

wettable powders and water dispersible granular products first, then liquid flowables, 

and emulsifiable concentrates last. After thoroughly mixing, let stand for at least 5 

minutes. If the combination remains mixed or can be remixed readily, it is physically 
Ascernity 

Page 10

compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, use the same procedure for adding 

required ingredients to the spray tank. 

Mixing in the Spray Tank 

 Add 1⁄2-2⁄3 of the required amount of water to the spray or mixing tank. 

 With the agitator running, add the tank mix partner(s) into the tank in the same 

order as described above. 

 Allow the material to completely dissolve and disperse into the mix water. 

Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water and Ascernity to the 

spray tank. 

 Allow Ascernity to completely disperse. 

 Spray the mixture with the agitator running. 

Application Instructions 

Ascernity may be applied with all types of spray equipment commonly used for making 

ground applications. Proper adjustments and calibration of spraying equipment to give 

good coverage is essential for good disease control. 

Ground Application 

 Apply in sufficient water to provide good coverage. Typical application volumes 

range from 30 to 175 gallons of spray per acre. 

 Thorough coverage is necessary to provide good disease control.
