DEZAL K.S.

Professional cereal protection: using Dezal K.S.

In intensive cereal production, managing fungal diseases during the vegetative phase is critical for high yields. The systemic fungicide Dezal K.S., based on carbendazim, offers a reliable, time-tested approach for agronomists aiming to secure their winter wheat and barley crops against a broad range of pathogens.

Field application and crop management

Dezal K.S. is a staple in many protection programs due to its dual action: it works preventively by creating a barrier and curatively by stopping the development of existing infections. In the field, it is primarily used for:

• Managing Powdery Mildew: Crucial during humid seasons with dense canopy development.
• Combating Leaf Spot Diseases: Specifically effective against Septoria and Helminthosporium, ensuring the flag leaf stays green and photosynthetically active.
• Preventing Root and Stem Rots: Targeting Fusarium and Eyespot to prevent lodging and maintain stand integrity.

Practical usage recommendations

As a suspension concentrate, Dezal K.S. is easy to handle and mixes well with other agrochemicals, offering flexibility in seasonal planning. The application rate ranges from 0.5 to 1.5 liters per hectare, providing the freedom to adjust based on the infection pressure observed in the field.

The product allows for up to two applications per season, providing a strategic advantage when dealing with secondary disease outbreaks. By maintaining a 30-day pre-harvest interval, farmers can integrate Dezal K.S. into their standard protection programs to achieve consistent results and ensure a quality harvest.
