Broader

The chemistry of Broader: Dual-action protection

The efficacy of the "Broader" fungicide, manufactured by F. AgroBest Grup Tarım İlaçları Tohumculuk, relies on the synergy of two triazoles: difenoconazole and propiconazole. This combination transforms the product from a specialized treatment into a versatile field tool, addressing critical fungal threats in cereal crops and fodder beet.

Technical mechanism of action

The core advantage of this product lies in its combination of systemic and contact mechanisms. Difenoconazole, which possesses pronounced systemic activity, penetrates plant tissues rapidly, blocking ergosterol biosynthesis in fungal cells and effectively halting mycelial growth. Propiconazole complements this process, providing a powerful "stop effect" and lasting prophylactic action. Together, they create a protective barrier that both eradicates established infections and safeguards emerging shoots.

• Septoria and Rust: Due to its high mobility within leaf tissue, the product effectively suppresses Septoria and yellow rust pathogens, which are notorious for significantly reducing the photosynthetic area of wheat and barley.
• Cercospora and Powdery Mildew: The fungicide delivers stable results on fodder beet, curbing the development of Phoma leaf spot and Cercospora, which is essential for maintaining sugar content and overall crop yield.

Formulation and application

"Broader" is formulated as an aqueous emulsion (EW), which facilitates the preparation of the working solution and ensures uniform distribution across the leaf surface. This physical state improves adhesion to the waxy layer of the leaves, reducing the risk of being washed away by precipitation. Rated as Class 3 in terms of toxicity, the product requires standard safety precautions while providing reliable, predictable agronomic performance.
