Ascernity is an innovative, balanced systemic fungicide developed by Syngenta, designed to provide reliable and long‑lasting protection against diseases. Ascernity prevents spores from developing into mycelium on the leaf surface – before they penetrate the plant. Once the mycelium has penetrated the leaf, Ascernity can stop the disease from spreading before any symptoms become visible in the turf. As a fungal disease develops, the pathogen exploits the glucose produced by the plant. Ascernity effectively blocks the fungal cells’ ability to absorb this sugar – which quickly prevents further development and spread of the disease.

These details apply to the use of Ascernity in Finland.
Ascernity is a fungicide intended for golf greens and tees, providing long‑lasting and well‑balanced protection against Microdochium patch, dollar spot and yellow patch. Ascernity combines two different active ingredients with two different modes of action, delivering strong and durable protection against turf diseases at various stages of their development.
Benzovindiflupyr (Solatenol™) is an SDHI fungicide and the first pyrazole‑carboxamide‑based control technology for professional turf in Finland.
Difenoconazole belongs to the DMI group and complements the effect.
This dual action provides flexibility in the timing of applications and reduces the risk of resistance. Ascernity is particularly suitable for golf greens and tees where the turf is required to be of the highest possible quality. Duration of activity: 2–4 weeks.
Target diseases:
• Microdochium patch (Microdochium nivale)
• Dollar spot
• Yellow patch (anthracnose)
Active ingredients: difenoconazole 78.8 g/l, benzovindiflupyr 23.6 g/l
Up‑to‑date information is available in the Kemidigi service.
Recommended application rates:
Golf tees and greens: 3 l/ha
Maximum 2 applications per year
Water volume: 125–500 l/ha
Points to note in use:
In areas adjacent to surface waters, a buffer zone of 10 metres to the water must be left when spraying with a tractor‑mounted sprayer in order to protect aquatic organisms.
Must not be used in groundwater areas classified as I or II.
