Azoxystrobin and Tebuconazole in the Product Custodia Fungicide

The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) has before it an application from Sumitomo Chemical Australia Pty Limited to vary the registration of the product, Custodia Fungicide, containing 200 g/L tebuconazole and 120 g/L azoxystrobin, to increase the application rate and reduce the withholding period for grapevines. The proposed variation requires an increase in the MRL for tebuconazole in grapes and dried grapes. No changes to the current azoxystrobin MRLs are required at this time and no further consideration of azoxystrobin MRLs will be made here.
