CADENCE® Fungicide
A Better Standard for Dollar Spot Control
CADENCE® fungicide can effectively control dollar spot that has developed resistance to other fungicides.
- Provides unprecedented dollar spot control in virtually every major turf species when used preventatively (CADENCE First™).
- Controls dollar spot for 14 to 21 days with a single application.
- Delivers better dollar spot control in bentgrass and other dollar spot-susceptible turfgrasses than other fungicides.
- Gives superintendents a true resistance-management tool.
- Utilizes low-use rates and provides strong residual control.
CADENCE® fungicide works differently than anything else you’ve seen used to control dollar spot (it is a different class of fungicide chemistry for dollar spot control). A preventative application will provide better residual control than curative applications.
Where to Use CADENCE®
Research shows that CADENCE provides excellent dollar spot control in most major turf species, including:

The “CADENCE First” Program ... For Results That Last
Preventative dollar spot control with CADENCE is far better than a curative approach. Apply CADENCE as the first dollar spot fungicide application in the spring, prior to the appearance of dollar spot. Then, apply CADENCE as the last dollar spot fungicide application in late fall.
- Less fungicide is needed to provide preventative control.
- A preventative application will provide better residual control than curative applications.
- Early spring applications, two weeks before dollar spot initiates, results in fewer problems during spring.
- Late fall applications provide a clean turf going into winter (reducing inoculum that over-winters) and delays
spring dollar spot problems.
Technical Brief
Description: CADENCE® fungicide is a unique chemistry for control of dollar spot in golf course turfgrass. CADENCE also controls bentgrass dead spot, a disease that can closely resemble dollar spot.
Use Sites: Golf Courses.
Formulation: 70% WG (Water Dispersible Granule)
Packaging: 3 x .162 kg package
Active Ingredient: Boscalid
Chemical Family: Anilide (Carboxamide)
Mode of Action: Inhibits respiration within the fungal cell. Is at a different site than the strobilurin fungicide chemistries.
Behavior in Plants: Upward systemic and limited translaminar movement.
Rates: 3.2 - 4.0 g/ 100 sq. m. in 5-15 L water per 100 sq. m (500-1500 L per hectare)
Control Symptoms: Provides rapid cessation of mycelia growth. Blocks further development of fungal growth at all stages. Healing of turfgrass lesions can be seen within 3+ days.
Keys to Success: Preventative applications are most effective to achieve greatest benefits of residual control. Use Insignia® fungicide/CADENCE or PREMIS® 200F fungicide/CADENCE alternation for extended broad-spectrum control in dollar spot-susceptible turfgrass.
Environmental Profile: Low toxicity to fish and aquatic plants / Low potential for off-site movement
and leaching.
Signal Word: WARNING
REI: When sprays have dried.
PPE: Long-sleeved shirt and long pants / Protective eyewear / Chemical-resistant gloves / Shoes and socks
