Description

Active Ingredients:
• Fluopiram 50 g/l
• Aluminum fosetyl 666 g/l

Mode of Action:

  • Fluopiram: Inhibits spore germination, germ tube elongation, mycelial growth, and sporulation, acting against fungi from the Ascomycetes and Deuteromycetes classes.
  • Aluminum Fosetyl: Penetrates the plant and is rapidly translocated both upward and downward, protecting vegetative and fruiting organs and stimulating the plant’s self-defense mechanisms.

Usage Instructions:

  • Apple:
    • Apply post-flowering, from when the fruits reach about 1 cm in diameter (BBCH 71) until the onset of ripening (BBCH 81).
    • The recommended dose is 3 kg/ha or 1 kg per crown meter (mch, depending on tree height).
    • Use a spray volume of 300–1500 L/ha.
  • Pear:
    • Apply from the “pre-flowering” stage (BBCH 51) until the beginning of ripening (BBCH 81).
    • Up to 3 treatments per season are recommended at 7-12 day intervals with a pre-harvest interval of 28 days.

Advantages:

  • Long-lasting protection due to effective translocation of aluminum fosetyl.
  • Systemic action that safeguards new growth.
  • Low risk of phytotoxicity when applied outside the flowering period.

Compatibility:

  • A small-scale compatibility test is advised before mixing with other products such as fungicides or liquid fertilizers.
