Abrusta

Innovative Grain Protection by Corteva

The «Abrusta» fungicide is a high-tech tool in the agronomist's arsenal, developed by Corteva to ensure stable yields of cereal crops. In the face of modern challenges, where pathogens rapidly adapt to standard products, this solution offers a dual systemic and contact approach to combating key diseases in winter and spring wheat, as well as winter barley.

A Double Strike Against Pathogens

The efficacy of «Abrusta» lies in its unique combination of active ingredients: penthiopyrad and cyproconazole. This synergy provides not only immediate contact action but also deep systemic penetration into plant tissues. The product effectively suppresses a wide spectrum of fungal infections:

• Yellow rust and tan spot in wheat;
• Net blotch and spot blotch in barley;
• Septoria leaf and glume blotch.

The suspension concentrate formulation ensures excellent solubility and stability of the spray solution, which is crucial for uniform leaf surface coverage.

Practical Application Details

The recommended application rate ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 L/ha, making it a cost-effective choice for intensive farming practices. The flexibility of «Abrusta» allows for up to two treatments per season, enabling effective control even under high disease pressure. Classified as a Class 2 hazard material, it requires strict adherence to safety protocols, yet delivers the robust protective effect that professional growers demand to maximize the potential of their crops.
