BASF New Zealand Limited applied to import for release Revystar Fungicide to New Zealand.

One of the active ingredients in Revystar Fungicide, mefentrifluconazole, has been approved for use in Europe, the USA and in Australia, but is new to New Zealand. The other active ingredient, fluxapyroxad, is currently approved in New Zealand.

Revystar Fungicide is an emulsifiable concentrate. Revystar® Fungicide is intended to be used as a fungicide for the treatment of stripe rust, brown rust, powdery mildew and speckled leaf blotch in wheat; leaf rust, Ramularia leaf, awn spot, scald, powdery mildew and net blotch (spot & net forms) in barley; as well as fungal diseases in triticale, ryecorn and oats. BASF New Zealand Limited sought to have Revystar® Fungicide approved for ground-based and aerial application methods. The company proposed that Revystar Fungicide would provide a new mode of action against fungi and would be an important tool for farmers in reducing the development of resistance.

The Committee of the Environmental Protection Authority considered that, with controls in place, the risks to human health and to the environment would be negligible, and the benefits associated with the release of this substance would outweigh the adverse effects. Therefore, in accordance with section 29 of the Act and clause 26 of the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms (Methodology) Order 1998, the Committee approved the application to import or manufacture Revystar® Fungicide for release with controls.
