Professional protection against major fungal threats

When dealing with high-risk crops like potatoes, tomatoes, or vineyards, prevention is always more cost-effective than recovery. 'Ликар рослин' (Likar Roslyn), produced by Zhenjiang Agrin Company Ltd., provides a sophisticated dual-action defense system. By combining the systemic power of metalaxyl with the protective contact activity of mancozeb, this fungicide offers a comprehensive shield against aggressive pathogens such as late blight, downy mildew, and alternaria.

Why this fungicide is a staple for modern farming

• Inside-out defense: Metalaxyl moves systemically through the plant tissues to stop fungal development from within, while mancozeb creates a persistent surface barrier.
• Reliability: It is specifically formulated to perform in high-humidity conditions, making it an essential tool for managing outbreaks of mildew and peronosporosis.
• Ease of handling: The water-suspension concentrate (WSC) ensures easy mixing and consistent application through standard nozzles, providing uniform leaf coverage.

Optimal use cases

This product is ideal for growers focusing on horticultural crops and vineyards who require a robust, proven chemical solution. Its classification as a 3rd-hazard class product ensures it can be managed safely while remaining potent against persistent field pathogens. Given the 14–20 day pre-harvest interval, it is best suited for early-to-mid-season disease management programs.

Strategic application tips

To maximize the efficacy of 'Ликар рослин', preventative application is recommended before symptoms become visible. With a limit of 3 treatments per season, it should be integrated into a well-planned rotational strategy. Its ability to protect new growth makes it significantly more effective than traditional contact-only alternatives. This is a reliable, battle-tested solution for maintaining crop health and maximizing marketable yields.
