Protecting the Foundation: Viking WSC Fungicide

Pre-sowing seed treatment is the first line of defense for any grain crop. The Viking WSC fungicide, presented by Nertus, utilizes a time-tested chemical combination of Thiram and Carboxin (oxathiin class) to provide reliable protection for winter wheat, spring wheat, and winter barley. This systemic fungicide is designed to mitigate the risks posed by soil-borne and seed-borne pathogens that threaten seedlings before they even emerge.

Key Targets and Efficacy

Viking WSC is highly effective against a broad spectrum of diseases that commonly plague cereal crops during germination. Its primary role is the suppression of:

• Helminthosporium and Fusarium root rots.
• Common bunt and other smut diseases.
• Seed mold caused by various fungal complexes.

By creating a systemic protective shield, the fungicide supports the seedling during its most vulnerable stage, ensuring uniform emergence and a robust start for the crop.

Technical Specifications and Application

The product comes in the form of a water-suspension concentrate, which ensures excellent adhesion to the seed surface and uniform coverage during processing.

• Application rate: 2.5–3 liters per ton of seeds.
• Treatment frequency: One-time application immediately before sowing.
• Hazard class: 3 (moderately hazardous), requiring standard safety protocols during handling and application.

The global production chain behind Viking WSC involves Peters & Burg Kft. (Hungary) alongside specialized facilities such as Yangzhou National Chemical Westzhong Company and Zhejiang Jinfanda Biochemical Co., Ltd. (China). This strategic cooperation allows for a high-quality, cost-effective solution that fits seamlessly into the crop protection programs of modern agricultural enterprises. By opting for a systemic product like Viking, agronomists choose a proven path to securing yields from the very first day in the field.
