AMISTA EXTRA 280 SC

Why AMISTAR EXTRA 280 SC is a Top Choice for Professionals

In the premium fungicide segment, AMISTAR EXTRA 280 SC stands out due to the synergy between two potent active ingredients: a strobilurin (azoxystrobin) and a triazole (cyproconazole). This is not just another fungicide, but a tool for managing plant physiology. Azoxystrobin extends the growing season by improving photosynthetic activity, which is crucial for maximizing grain filling or sugar beet root development.

Strengths and Protection Mechanism

The key feature of its composition is the rapid redistribution of active ingredients. The contact-systemic action allows for the effective containment of fungal infections even at the onset of epiphytotics. It is indispensable for controlling helminthosporiosis, septoria, and fusarium in cereals, corn, and sunflowers.

• Physiological Effect: Reduces ethylene levels, delaying leaf senescence.
• Wide Spectrum: Highly effective on wheat, barley, corn, and sugar beets.
• Flexibility: Up to two applications per season are permitted.

Application Considerations

The product requires strict adherence to regulations: the application rate varies from 0.5 to 0.75 L/ha depending on the phytosanitary background. With a class 2 hazard rating and a 30-day pre-harvest interval, AMISTAR EXTRA 280 SC is targeted at intensive farming operations where both crop protection and yield quality are paramount. A potential limitation is the need for precise timing to avoid residue accumulation in the final product.

For growers, this is an "all-in-one" solution that combines crop protection against a complex of leaf spots with an anti-stress effect. If your goal is high profitability per hectare, this Syngenta fungicide should be at the top of your list.
