Medea

Double strike against pathogens: the potential of the 'Medea' fungicide

In modern intensive agriculture, crop protection requires solutions capable of working proactively. The fungicide 'Medea', developed by the experts at ZAO Shchelkovo Agrohim, is a combination of two potent active ingredients — difenoconazole and flutriafol. This synergistic pair from the triazole class allows for the control of a wide spectrum of fungal diseases, providing both curative and preventive effects.

Application and efficacy

The uniqueness of the formulation lies in its combination of systemic and contact modes of action. Thanks to the aqueous emulsion formulation, the active ingredients quickly penetrate plant tissues, ensuring protection for both treated areas and new growth. The product has proven its effectiveness against hard-to-eradicate diseases such as cercosporosis and phomosis in beets, scab in apple trees, as well as powdery mildew and oidium in vineyards.

Usage guidelines and regulations

Farmers should note that to achieve maximum results, it is necessary to strictly follow application rates, which vary from 0.2 to 1.0 l/ha depending on the severity of infection and the crop type. The protection program can include up to 4 treatments per season. Given its toxicity class 3, it is crucial to adhere to pre-harvest intervals of 20 to 30 days, making the product a reliable tool when technological discipline is maintained.
