Acantho Plus 28 SC

Advanced Crop Protection for Cereals and Oilseeds

Acantho Plus 28 SC is a top-tier systemic and contact fungicide from Dupont, engineered to tackle the most persistent fungal diseases in modern farming. By integrating picoxystrobin and cyproconazole, this product provides both immediate curative action and long-lasting preventive protection, which is essential for maximizing yield in competitive agricultural environments.

Practical Scenarios for Field Use

Farmers rely on Acantho Plus to solve several critical agronomic challenges:

• Cereal Management: It is highly effective against leaf blotch, net blotch, and various rusts (stem and brown). For wheat, it is frequently used to protect the ear against fusarium, ensuring better quality grain at harvest.
• Technical Crops: The fungicide proves its worth in soybean, sunflower, and corn fields by preventing various spot diseases, which helps maintain green leaf area for a longer duration, boosting final biomass production.

Why Acantho Plus stands out

The product's efficacy is largely due to the unique behavior of picoxystrobin. It possesses a gaseous phase that allows the fungicide to move around the leaf surface, protecting areas not directly covered by the spray droplets. This is a significant advantage in dense canopy conditions where coverage can be challenging. Cyproconazole provides rapid systemic translocation, ensuring that the disease cycle is disrupted immediately upon application.

Key Application Data

With a usage rate of 0.5–0.75 L/ha and a limit of two applications per season, Acantho Plus offers significant operational flexibility. It is essential to note the 30-day pre-harvest interval, which must be factored into your spray schedule. Given that it falls under toxicity class 3, standard safety precautions must be followed during handling and application to ensure the safety of operators and the environment.
