Infinite 687.5 SC

Synergistic chemistry: The science behind Infinito 687.5 SC

The efficacy of Infinito 687.5 SC relies on the combination of two active ingredients with distinct modes of action: Propamocarb hydrochloride (625 g/L) and Fluopicolide (62.5 g/L). Propamocarb, a carbamate-class compound, exhibits systemic properties by inhibiting the biosynthesis of phospholipids and fatty acids, effectively stalling mycelial growth. Fluopicolide introduces an innovative approach by targeting the protein structure and delamination process of the pathogen, causing rapid collapse of the fungal cytoskeleton. This dual-action strategy ensures both preventative and curative control.

Technical advantages of systemic protection

As a systemic fungicide, Infinito 687.5 SC translocates within the plant tissue, protecting new growth that emerges post-application. This is vital for managing late blight (Phytophthora) and downy mildew (Peronospora) in high-value crops like potatoes, cucumbers, and cabbage:

• Zoospore immobilization: Fluopicolide disrupts the motility of zoospores, preventing the spread of infection even under high-humidity conditions.
• Curative properties: Propamocarb provides strong anti-sporulant action, stopping the disease even if initial symptoms are present.
• Formulation stability: The suspension concentrate formulation ensures superior adhesion, forming a long-lasting protective barrier on the leaf surface.

Field application guidelines

To achieve peak performance, apply at a rate of 1.2–1.6 L/ha, with a maximum of 2–3 applications per season. The pre-harvest interval of 10–14 days allows for flexibility during the final stages of crop development, when the risk of epiphytotic outbreaks is at its highest. Because the active ingredients move systemically through the plant tissues, Infinito 687.5 SC provides excellent internal protection, effectively preventing the infection of potato tubers and ensuring higher storage quality for the harvest.
