Philippine Banana Market
Philippine produces world class banana, the country is the 5
th
largest exporter in the world (2016)
Banana is 3
rd
top agricultural export in the Philippines based on FOB value (2015)
Mindanao has the largest area of production and today the Banana export industry is in 15 out of 25 provinces in Mindanao
Fresh Cavendish banana is mainly exported in Gulf countries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain) and ASEAN countries (Brunei, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore)

UPL
Worldwide; Farmer First
We exist to ensure more food and nutrition for more people in the world and we do that by putting the Farmer First in everything
we
do.
We provide solutions to optimize farm productivity for farmers through innovative and cost effective products to increase farmers income.
Our farmer engagement initiatives aim to educate, assist and address everyday challenges that farming poses.

Gustavo
Cardenas
(
UPL Mancozeb Formulation)
UPL’s Qualitative Vision on
Mancozeb
products are better in terms of the following
:
Physical-Chemistry
Concentration of the active
Water content
Suspensibility
Particle Size
Dustiness
Stability
Biological
Dispersibility
Rainfastness
/ Persistence
Biological efficiency
Commercial
Logistics
Slide1111
Vondozeb
has demonstrated excellent physical properties in terms of
suspensibility
, viscosity,
flowability
and compatibility with other fungicides. There is no risk of sedimentation with the current storage
system.
Vondozeb
formulations offer the best dispersion in the leaves in two ways:
Formulation in oil with excellent diffusion of drops in the leaf
Dry formulation that offers a high number of drops covering 100% of the leaf surface
Rainfastness
– product persistence in the leave is excellent preventing product run off in the leaves
Slide1212
Ricardo Astua(Effect of tank mixing with mancozeb
in the sensitivity of Mycosphaerella fijiensis to single site fungicides)
Slide1313
Experimental results have confirmed that resistance of
M.fijiensis
to Single Site Fungicides can be delayed using a tank mix with multisite fungicides (
mancozeb
).
On the other hand, the disease control obtained was also better in the treatments that include tank mixture of Single Site Fungicides +
Mancozeb
.
Slide1414
Effective and economic option for the farmers toolbox
Even with availability of other chemistry, still considered an essential toolNo resistance after 60 yearsHighly compatible with other products
UPL products show good
rainfastness
Quick degradation, safer to environment
Multisite
Key in resistance management

Mancozeb
as a Key Resistance Management Tool)

Jenny Odum
(Mancozeb and Human Health)
Mancozeb
has a huge database and its toxicological hazards and modes of action are well understood.
It has been reviewed many times in different areas of the world and is currently being re-reviewed in Europe.
Its primary effect is inhibition of thyroid hormone synthesis
.
Rats are the most sensitive and humans the least, to the effects of
mancozeb
/ETU. This is partly due to species differences in metabolism of ETU.
Slide1616
Rats are the most sensitive and humans the least, to the effects of
mancozeb/ETU. This is partly due to species differences in metabolism of ETU.The effects on thyroid hormones lead to thyroid tumours in rats but not mice, no evidence in humans
.
No evidence of developmental neurotoxicity was seen with
mancozeb
/ETU in rats.
Effects on the thyroid hormonal system in rats do not indicate adverse effects of relevance to man
.
We do not consider
mancozeb
to be an ED according to the WHO/EU definition.
Slide1717
Regulatory reference values provide large safety factors that are protective of human populations.
Exposure studies indicate that levels of mancozeb/ETU are well below the reference values.
Human studies have not associated
mancozeb
with any health effects.
Mancozeb
is a safe compound when used correctly.
