Belchim Canada is launching Migiwa 20 SC, a unique fungicide designed to protect pome fruit crops from scab and powdery mildew. Migiwa 20 SC is powered by the active ingredient KINOPROL (ipflufenoquin) which belongs to the FRAC Group 52 and offers a unique mode of action with no known cross-resistance to other fungicide groups.
