Dual-action technology delivers broad-spectrum disease control and resistance management—helping Golf Superintendents keep greens pristine and playable.

DURHAM, N.C., Dec. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sipcam Agro USA proudly announces the launch of Carve™ Xtra, a next-generation turf fungicide engineered to meet the rigorous demands of golf course disease management. Developed with golf superintendents and turf managers in mind, Carve™ Xtra delivers broad-spectrum control, preventive and curative activity, and systemic protection—all in one powerful solution.

Golf course turf faces relentless pressure from diseases like dollar spot, brown patch, anthracnose and fairy ring. Carve™ Xtra combines azoxystrobin and prothioconazole—two proven active ingredients with complementary modes of action—to provide unmatched disease control and resistance management. This dual-active formulation ensures turf stays healthy and playable, even under high-stress conditions.

Key Benefits for Superintendents:

• Broad-Spectrum Protection: Controls 13 major turf diseases, including summer stress pathogens
• Resistance Management: Dual modes of action reduce the risk of fungicide resistance
• Enhanced Turf Quality: Improves root development, color retention, shade tolerance, and water use efficiency
• Versatile Application: Fits seamlessly into rotational and tank-mix programs for all golf turf types

"Golf course superintendents need solutions that work, and offer a great ROI," said Dave Feist, Senior Director of Marketing at Sipcam Agro USA. "Carve™ Xtra is designed to deliver consistent, reliable performance while supporting long-term turf health."
