Combined systemic-fungicide with clearly expressed curative effect for protection of sugar beet against cercosporosis and ramulariosis.
Trifloxystrobin, 375 g/l + cyproconazole, 160 g/l
Concentrate suspension
The product is safe for bees when used at recommended application rates.
Trifloxystrobin disrupts the respiration process in cell mitochondria by blocking electron transport and creates a protective barrier that prevents pathogen penetration into the plant, resistant to washout by rain. Active against fungi of the genera Ascomycetes, Deuteromycetes, Basidiomycetes, Oomycetes. Trifloxystrobin's effectiveness lies in controlling diseases at early stages of fungal development (spore germination, mycelial growth, apressorium formation) — preventive action. Cyproconazole acts by inhibiting demethylase, an enzyme responsible for sterol biosynthesis (cell wall building material of the pathogen), which disrupts fungal cell wall integrity and leads to their death and limits disease spread — curative effect. In addition, cyproconazole has excellent systemic properties and moves acropetally.
