Custodia

Maximizing yield stability with Custodia

In modern agricultural management, the choice of a fungicide is rarely just about disease control—it is about protecting yield potential during critical growth stages. Custodia by ADAMA MAKHTESHIM LTD. serves as a versatile systemic and contact solution. By combining azoxystrobin and tebuconazole, this product targets a broad spectrum of fungal pathogens, making it a staple in rotation strategies for various crops.

Field Application Scenarios

• Oilseeds and Legumes: Whether managing sunflower, soybean, or winter rapeseed, Custodia is deployed to combat sclerotinia, phomopsis, and rust. It acts both as a curative measure for existing infections and a preventative shield during the high-pressure blooming phase.
• Cereal Crops: Designed to handle septoria and fusarium, the systemic nature of the formulation ensures that treated plants remain healthy even during periods of rapid leaf development.
• Vegetable Production: For crops like onions, carrots, and tomatoes, early intervention against alternaria and downy mildew is crucial. A flexible application rate of 0.8–1.2 L/ha allows agronomists to calibrate treatment based on local infection history and weather outlooks.

Operational Benefits

As a suspension concentrate, Custodia is easy to integrate into existing spray programs. With a recommended 1–2 applications per season and a pre-harvest interval of 20–30 days, it provides significant flexibility for logistical planning. Beyond disease control, the strobilurin component supports plant physiology, helping crops endure abiotic stress such as late-season heat or moisture deficit. This combination of efficacy and plant health support makes Custodia a reliable partner for maintaining farm profitability throughout the growing season.
