Antal c.e.

Synergy of three components in Antal E.C.

The efficiency of wheat seed treatment depends on the active ingredients' ability to cover the "blind spots" of pathogens. Antal E.C. is a balanced fungicidal seed dresser that combines three key components: thiabendazole, imazalil, and tebuconazole. This combination provides both contact and systemic action, targeting infections at different stages of development.

Technical Breakdown

• Thiabendazole blocks pathogen cell division, effectively countering smut pathogens. It serves as the foundation for early-stage infection prevention.
• Imazalil acts as a powerful ergosterol synthesis inhibitor. Its critical advantage lies in its deep penetration into seed tissues, enabling control over helminthosporium and fusarium root rots, which are often overlooked by less comprehensive products.
• Tebuconazole, from the triazole class, provides systemic protection for the seedling. It stops seed mold and septoria, creating a protective barrier around the young plant when it is most vulnerable.

The emulsion concentrate formulation ensures uniform distribution of active ingredients across the seed surface, preventing runoff. With a dosage rate of 0.2–0.3 L/t, it achieves optimal concentration without wasting active material. Maximum efficacy is reached with a single application.

When handling Antal E.C. (Hazard Class 3), it is essential to follow regulations: the pre-harvest interval is 30 days. Industrial cooperation between production facilities in Hungary and China ensures high purity of the active substances, which is vital for minimizing phytotoxicity and ensuring consistent field performance.
