I'm excited that myclobutanil is now on sale as a concentrate in
Australia. It's a new systemic, cheaper than triforine (for some reason)

Does anyone have experience of this? How well does it really work in
truth?

are resistant to Myclobutanil and how to manage such an infection:

Here is some information on its itnernational registration for use as a
pesticide - the countries where it is registered and where it is not,
and there appear to be NO countries where it is banned:
