Lamethyl WP z.p.

Reliable protection with Benomyl

Lametil WP represents a classic approach to crop protection. Manufactured by Nanjing No.1 Pesticide Factory (Red Sun Group, China), this fungicide relies on the proven active ingredient benomyl, a member of the benzimidazole family. Despite the emergence of newer classes of chemistry, benzimidazoles remain a cornerstone in controlling fungal pathogens due to their potent systemic activity.

Spectrum of application and performance

The strength of Lametil WP lies in its dual-action profile: it acts both as a contact and a systemic fungicide. By penetrating plant tissues, it effectively blocks fungal cell division, which is critical during early growth stages. Growers rely on this product for its broad-spectrum efficacy:

• Cereals and technical crops: Comprehensive protection for winter wheat and winter rapeseed against powdery mildew, snow mold, and phoma.
• Root crops and legumes: Effective management of cercospora in fodder beets and root rots in soybeans.

Formulated as a wettable powder (WP), the product requires careful preparation of the spray solution, ensuring excellent leaf surface coverage and rapid plant absorption. Classified under toxicity category 3, it is predictable and manageable within standard industrial agricultural protocols.

Market positioning

Products from Red Sun Group are well-regarded globally for balancing economic efficiency with functional performance. In the agricultural market, where fighting fungal diseases requires flexible solutions, Lametil WP (marketed by Klov and Green Express, Ukraine) is frequently used as a primary systemic component in tank mixes or as a stand-alone treatment for suppressing a wide array of infections.
