Vive Crop Protection has announced the Canadian registration of Phobos™ FC360, a next-generation foliar fungicide designed to deliver enhanced disease protection and superior on-leaf performance for Canadian growers.

Powered by Vive's Allosperse Delivery Technology, Phobos FC360 contains Prothioconazole (Group 3 fungicide) and is labeled for use on key Canadian crops including canola, wheat (spring and winter), barley, chickpeas, pulses, and other specialty crops including low-bush blueberries.

As an easy-to-use foliar fungicide, Phobos FC360 is compatible with liquid fertilizers, micronutrients, and other crop inputs for streamlined tank mixes. Unlike competitive brands that can ridge and clump on the leaf surface, Phobos FC360 delivers uniform distribution across the leaf surface and reduced rain wash-off for total grower peace of mind.  

"Canadian growers are looking for solutions that deliver consistent disease control without adding complexity to their spray programs," said Wade Clarke, national business development manager, Canada, Vive Crop Protection. "Phobos FC360 brings a clear application advantage, stronger on-leaf retention, even coverage, and proven performance across Canada. We're excited to provide growers with another tool that helps protect yield potential and maximize the value of every acre."

Across multiple 2025 Canadian trials, Phobos FC360 delivered consistent disease protection and competitive or superior yield performance versus leading industry standards.

• -  Low-bush Blueberry: Demonstrated stronger disease protection from Monilinia blight and rust and improved yield performance compared to competitive standards in Nova Scotia trials.

   

These results reinforce the value of improved deposition and retention on the leaf surface, particularly in regions prone to rainfall events and high humidity.

Phobos FC 360 will be available across Canada for the 2026 growing season.
