Chorus 75 WG

Why «Chorus 75 WG» is the Gold Standard for Orchard Protection

When it comes to early-season protection for stone and pome fruits, Syngenta’s «Chorus 75 WG» is often the preferred choice for professional growers. Unlike many contact fungicides that only work upon physical contact with pathogens, this product offers systemic protection. Its active ingredient, cyprodinil (a member of the anilinopyrimidine class), penetrates plant tissues and remains active even at cool temperatures, starting from just +5 °C.

Key Advantages

• Early Season Performance: Ideal for the 'green bud' stage, when other fungicides struggle due to lingering cold weather.
• Weather Resilience: The water-dispersible granule formulation ensures excellent adhesion and rapid systemic uptake. Once dry (usually within 2 hours), it becomes rain-fast.
• Dual Action: It acts both preventively and curatively, stopping spore germination and halting fungal growth within the plant tissues if an infection has already taken root.

Application and Efficacy

«Chorus 75 WG» is highly effective against moniliosis, scab, and fruit rots. It is indispensable for stone fruit producers—apricots, cherries, and peaches—where early infections can jeopardize up to 80% of the harvest. Depending on the crop and infection pressure, the application rate is 0.5–1.0 kg/ha. To maintain efficacy and prevent the development of resistant fungal strains, it is highly recommended to rotate this product with fungicides from different chemical groups.

Usage Notes

While exceptionally powerful, users must respect the pre-harvest intervals (PHI), ranging from 7 to 30 days depending on the crop. Following the label strictly is essential to ensure food safety for early-maturing strawberry and cherry varieties.
