At ADAMA, we know the best solutions come from listening to growers’ needs. With over 270 different active ingredients and the world’s largest library of actives, ADAMA is proud to offer Canadian canola growers a wide range of innovative, convenient options to maximize crop performance.
For top-performing disease protection, upgrade to MAXENTIS® and get long-lasting, dual-mode sclerotinia (white mould) control in an advanced formulated mix. MAXENTIS® conveniently features a wide window of application, simplifying application planning. The solution also saves growers time thanks to its bulk packaging capabilities and easy application process.
To protect against blackleg, choose BUMPER® 432 EC. Blackleg is one of the most detrimental diseases for canola, causing at times as much as a 50% yield loss. With BUMPER® 432 EC, you can keep your crops safe early in the season.
With these solutions on your side, you can protect your crops all season long for an optimal canola yield.
Sclerotinia stem rot (white mould) continues to be one of the most devastating diseases in canola. By causing lesions on stems of infected plants, sclerotinia cuts off water absorption and nutrient uptake, reducing canola yield by as much as 50%.
The disease overwinters in soil and on crop stubble, and needs warm, moist soil conditions and plenty of shade to germinate. This means that the spread and severity of sclerotinia varies widely from year to year: dry, hot summers keep sclerotinia at bay, while humid, damp summers can lead to high levels of disease pressure.
In canola, timing is critical. For best results, fungicide applications such as MAXENTIS® should be completed before sclerotinia is found in the field. With a wide window of application and bulk easy-to-use formulation, MAXENTIS® lets growers spray industry-leading disease control faster and more efficiently when it suits them best. Asorbital® Formulation Technology ensures MAXENTIS® is absorbed and spread efficiently across the plant, providing long-lasting protection.

Blackleg is a serious disease known to cause up to 50% yield loss in canola fields. It can infect plants from the seedling stage onward, causing progressive damage as it develops cankers on the stem that restrict water and nutrient uptake.
The disease is often spread to crops through residues from infected plants and overwinters on infected stubble for at least two years. Wind and rain can also spread spores to new areas. Growers should be particularly cautious during warm, moist years or in regions that get a lot of rain, as these conditions encourage rapid spread. However, the disease is found both in warm, humid regions and dry regions across Canada, so it’s important to keep an eye out when growing susceptible plants.

Weeds and volunteer crops are a significant threat to canola, acting as hosts for disease and pests while using up critical resources. With effective weed management, you can help protect your yield potential and maximize your investment on crop genetics, fertilizer and other crop input products.
