Sillit 400: Professional Protection Against Scab and Leaf Curl

When managing pome and stone fruit orchards, the early spring window is critical. «Sillit 400» by Agrifarm S.A. (Belgium) leverages the power of dodine to provide a robust solution when temperatures are still low and traditional systemic fungicides may struggle. This product is engineered for those who prioritize precision in early-season disease management.

Dual-Action Mechanism

The core strength of Sillit 400 is its synergy of systemic and contact activity. While it creates an external protective shield on the leaf surface, it also possesses internal curative properties, allowing it to halt the growth of fungal colonies that have already established. This makes it an essential tool for orchards prone to high infection pressure.

Key Operational Advantages

• Targeted Efficacy: Specifically formulated to control apple and pear scab, peach leaf curl, and cherry coccomycosis.
• Weather Resilience: Its chemical structure ensures rapid adhesion to the foliage, which is vital during the rainy spring season when other products might wash off.
• Application Guidelines: The suspension concentrate is designed for doses of 1.5–2.5 l/ha. With a limit of 3 treatments per season and a 30-day pre-harvest interval, it fits perfectly into a well-managed professional spray program.

Sillit 400 is classified as a Category 2 hazard, meaning it requires professional handling and strict adherence to safety protocols. It is an optimal choice for orchards that require aggressive, reliable action against primary infections. By integrating this product early in the growth cycle, growers can ensure a clean start, significantly reducing the fungal load that typically threatens yields during the flowering and fruit-set stages.
