Redigo M 120 FS

Seed protection matters: working with Redigo M 120 FS

When you put soybean or corn seeds into the ground, you are always facing the risk of soil-borne infections. My experience with Redigo M 120 FS shows that this fungicide is the kind of tool that gives you peace of mind from sowing until emergence. The combination of active ingredients (metalaxyl, prothioconazole) provides a systemic effect that acts as a protective barrier surrounding the seedling.

Application and Dosage

The product comes as a flowable suspension concentrate. From my experience, it is very convenient to handle: it doesn't clog the nozzles of the seed treatment machinery, and the consistency remains stable without separating during long-term storage. The dosage is 0.5–1 L per ton of seeds, which is standard and easy to calibrate. Since only one application is required for the full cycle, the cost per hectare remains predictable.

Effectiveness

Root rots are the main headache for any agronomist, as they directly impact stand density. Against Fusarium and Helminthosporium root rots, this product performs perfectly. I particularly value its performance on corn: common smut is a frequent issue, and Redigo M 120 FS acts as a powerful preventive shield. I should also note its effectiveness against seed molding, which is critical if the sowing season is plagued by a cold, wet spring.

• Safety: It is classified as Hazard Class 3, requiring standard precautions familiar to any operator.
• Systemic action: The product penetrates plant tissues, protecting the seed from within, not just on the surface.
• Versatility: Suitable for both soybeans and corn, simplifying stock management.

It might not provide an instant "wow" effect, but it is exactly what ensures the uniform emergence that determines your yield come harvest time. It is easy to use, the rates are straightforward, and the results are consistently reliable.
