Professional Copper-Based Protection by Nufarm

"Champ W.G." is a cornerstone of the Nufarm fungicide portfolio, recognized globally for its reliability in managing fungal and bacterial threats. While the brand originates from Australia, this particular formulation is expertly produced in Chile, ensuring consistent quality and high bioavailability. Designed as water-dispersible granules, the product offers a clean, dust-free preparation process, making it a preferred choice for large-scale agricultural operations requiring precision and efficacy.

Target Crops and Disease Control

As a contact fungicide, Champ W.G. creates a protective film on the foliage, preventing the germination of spores and the subsequent spread of infection. It is highly valued for its versatility in different agricultural sectors:

• Apple orchards: Crucial for scab management.
• Vineyards: A robust solution for controlling downy mildew, especially in high-pressure seasons.
• Tomatoes: Effectively combats late blight, early blight (alternaria), and bacterial diseases such as bacterial canker.

Technical Performance and Application

The formulation in water-dispersible granules allows for optimal tank-mixing performance, preventing nozzle clogging and ensuring uniform application. With a dosage rate between 1.5 and 3 kg/ha, growers can adjust their strategy based on the specific disease pressure. The product allows for 3 to 4 applications per season, providing a solid foundation for an integrated pest management program.

Classified as a category 2 hazard product, Champ W.G. requires adherence to safety standards. To ensure food safety and minimize residue levels, a pre-harvest interval of 20–30 days must be observed. This strategic approach to timing guarantees both the health of the crop and the quality of the final harvest, reinforcing Nufarm's reputation for agricultural excellence.
