Fungicides are a control measure commonly used once grape anthracnose has become established in a vineyard. The most important fungicide application occurs in early spring during the dormant period before bud swell. A lime-sulfur solution is most commonly used. This is typically applied at a rate of ten gallons per acre. Commercially available Sulforix can also be used at a rate of one gallon per acre. Both fungicides target the sclerotia overwintering in the canes. This dormant fungicide application is then followed up throughout the season by foliar sprays—sprays that target the surface of foliage. These sprays help protect the new susceptible tissues. Foliar sprays are typically recommended at two-week intervals. Other commercial products often used include Mancozeb, Captan, Ziram, Sovran, Rally, Elite, Inspire Super, Adamant, Mettle, Revus Top, Vintage, and Pristine. The majority of these fungicides are sterol inhibitors and a few are EBDC—non-systemic, surface-acting fungicides. It is important to use fungicides with different modes of action to avoid resistance development.
