Details

Description

Active Ingredient:
• Tebuconazole 500 g/l (presumed)

Mode of Action:

  • Systemic and translaminar: The product is rapidly absorbed and translocated through the xylem, protecting both the treated areas and new growth.
  • Inhibition of ergosterol biosynthesis: By blocking the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, the fungicide effectively stops pathogen development.

Usage Instructions (example for cereals):

  • Application:
    • Apply preventively at the first signs of infection.
    • The typical dose is about 0.8–1.0 L/ha (depending on the target crop), using a spray volume of 200–400 L/ha.
  • Number of Treatments:
    • Usually, one treatment per season is sufficient; in severe cases, up to 2 treatments may be applied.
  • Pre-harvest Interval:
    • A period of 14–21 days is recommended before harvest, depending on the crop.

Advantages:

  • Rapid absorption and systemic action, ensuring comprehensive plant protection.
  • Broad-spectrum activity against fungal diseases.
  • Fewer applications required due to high efficacy.

Recommendations:

  • Always refer to the product label for crop-specific dosing and application conditions.
  • Conduct a compatibility test if mixing with other pesticides.
