Folicur Solo EW 250 is a systemic fungicide formulated as a water-emulsifiable concentrate (EW) containing 250 g/L tebuconazole. It is designed for the control of foliar diseases in a variety of crops, offering both preventive and curative protection by inhibiting ergosterol synthesis in fungal cells.
Detailed Description:
- Active Ingredient:
Tebuconazole 250 g/L
- Mode of Action:
Tebuconazole works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a critical component of fungal cell membranes. This disruption interferes with the growth and development of fungi, providing systemic and translaminar protection in both a preventive and curative manner.
- Usage and Recommended Dosage:
The product is applied as a foliar spray. The recommended dosage varies depending on the crop and the level of disease pressure—for example, for vegetables and fruit trees, typical application rates are between 0.5 and 1.0 L/ha, diluted in 300–600 L/ha of water. Treatments can be applied preventively before disease onset or curatively at the first signs of infection.
- Precautions:
Wear appropriate protective equipment (gloves, goggles, mask) during handling and application. Avoid spraying under imminent rainfall to ensure optimal adhesion. Always follow the instructions on the product label and local regulations regarding fungicide use.
