Calgary, AB, Jan. 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a first for Canadian wheat growers, Corteva Agriscience today proudly launches Telbek™ PRO, the innovative fungicide powered by Adavelt™ active and delivering a new mode of action to cereal growers.

This proven combination and novel mode of action means not only is it designed to delay resistance development, it also delivers suppression of FHB alongside robust control of Septoria, leaf and stripe rust, tan spot, and glume blotch to help Canadian farmers get the most from every acre.
“Telbek™ PRO represents a significant advancement in fungicide technology, giving Canadian cereal growers greater confidence and accuracy in managing FHB,” said Loralee Orr, Canadian Vice President of Commercial, Corteva. “This launch expands our cereal portfolio and establishes a new benchmark for yield protection and return on investment in Canadian wheat.”
Telbek™ PRO represents the forefront of fungicide innovation. Its advanced formulation targets diseases at their core, ensuring robust performance even under high-disease pressure. Early field trials have shown impressive results, with growers reporting enhanced yield stability and cleaner grain.
