Pilarstin

Reliable protection for cereal and industrial crops

Pilarstin is a systemic fungicide based on carbendazim, which has remained the gold standard for decades in controlling a wide range of fungal diseases. The Chinese manufacturer, Pilarquim (Shanghai) LTD, has refined the formulation into a suspension concentrate that ensures optimal leaf coverage and rapid penetration into plant tissues.

Key Advantages

• Systemic action: The product is quickly distributed throughout the plant, protecting not only the areas hit by the spray but also new growth.
• Wide spectrum of control: Effectively manages fusarium, septoria, powdery mildew, and oidium.
• Versatility: Suitable for use on wheat, barley, rye, sunflower, forage beet, and vineyards.

The main feature of Pilarstin is its ability to block pathogen cell division at the mitosis stage. This makes it indispensable in crop protection programs that require rapid infection suppression. However, it is important to note: carbendazim is prone to resistance development; therefore, agronomists recommend rotating Pilarstin with fungicides from other chemical groups (e.g., triazoles or strobilurins).

Who is this product for?

This fungicide is an optimal solution for farms seeking a balance between cost and efficiency when managing cereal crops and sunflowers. It is particularly effective in conditions of moderate humidity, where the risk of phomopsis and helminthosporiosis increases. When application regulations are followed, its Class 3 toxicity rating makes it quite predictable for field use, though it requires standard safety precautions when operating spray equipment.
