Vive Crop Protection Inc. has launched a new foliar fungicide, Phobos FC, to help sugarbeet growers control Cercospora leaf spot.
Phobos FC fungicide combines Vive’s Allosperse delivery technology with prothioconazole to provide superior protection against Cercospora leaf spot while delivering maximum yield and sugar content.
Using patented nano-polymers, Vive says Allosperse optimizes the active ingredient, enabling targeted placement for more uniform disease protection.

The yield potential of Ontario’s 2025 corn crop was lost in some areas due to extreme dry conditions.
David Reif, Vive’s northern technical sales agronomist said in a release the company is “thrilled with our 2023 field trial results where Phobos FC is not only meeting but exceeding the Proline fungicide market standard for disease protection.”
Phobos FC is recommended as part of a foliar application program anywhere from the 8-leaf stage to pre-harvest, for defense against Cercospora leaf spot.
