Seed Treatment Mastery: The Bakash Experience

When dealing with winter wheat and barley, the quality of your seed treatment defines the entire season. I’ve been using Bakash by «Nertus» to ensure my crops get the best start possible. It is a powerful, systemically acting product that combines fungicidal and insecticidal properties, meaning I no longer have to worry about tank mixes for seed treatment.

Why it works: A look at the components

The formulation relies on a robust combination of azoxystrobin, difenoconazole, imazalil, and thiamethoxam. This blend provides a comprehensive shield against common agricultural threats:

• Pathogens: It handles root rot, septoria, helminthosporium, smut, and seed mold with ease.
• Pests: The insecticide component effectively suppresses wireworms, cereal beetles, and flea beetles, which is vital during the early tillering phase.

The result is a healthy root system and vigorous emergence, even in challenging soil conditions. The plants enter the winter period well-established, with enough reserves to survive frost and emerge stronger in the spring.

Operational ease and performance

Bakash comes as a concentrated suspension, making it very stable and easy to dilute. The recommended dosage of 1–1.2 l/t is straightforward to calculate and apply. In my experience, it mixes perfectly with water and doesn't cause clogging in application equipment. With a 3rd hazard class, it requires standard protective gear, but it is much more manageable than complex multi-product systems.

What I value most is its reliability. You treat the seed once, and the systemic action takes over. No phytotoxicity, no guesswork, just consistent protection during the most critical early phases of crop development. For an agronomist, it is a tool that brings peace of mind.
