Serkadi

Advanced systemic protection for high-yield crops

The fungicide "Serkadis" from Basf S.A. is a high-performance crop protection agent that leverages the power of Fluxapyroxad to secure your fields against stubborn fungal pathogens. Belonging to the SDHI class, this product stands out from competitors due to its exceptional mobility within plant tissues, moving efficiently through both the xylem and the waxy cuticle. This ensures that crops like potatoes and grapes remain protected even during periods of rapid growth and in challenging weather conditions.

Why Serkadis makes a difference

• Deep Systemic Penetration: Unlike superficial contact agents, this suspension concentrate absorbs into the plant, fighting infections from within.
• Resistance Management: The specific mode of action of Fluxapyroxad helps prevent the buildup of fungal resistance, keeping your defense strategy viable for future seasons.
• Targeted Efficiency: Specifically formulated to combat Rhizoctonia on potatoes and Oidium on grapevines, it provides a precise solution to high-risk diseases.

Application and Practical Use

For optimal results, the application rate is set between 0.5 and 1.0 L/ha (or L/ton for seed treatment). The product allows for a maximum of 1 to 3 applications per season, depending on the infection pressure. As a Class 3 hazard product, it requires standard professional handling practices.

Serkadis is designed for growers who prioritize premium crop quality. Its primary strength lies in its rapid, long-lasting performance and ability to withstand rain-washing, making it a reliable partner in intensive farming. While it requires strict adherence to dosage and timing, the return on investment through reduced disease impact and higher marketable yields makes it an essential tool for professional agricultural portfolios.
