Reliable winter crop protection: field experience with «Життедар»

When it comes to pre-sowing treatment of winter wheat, choosing the right fungicide is crucial. «Життедар» (Zhittedar) by «Бадвасі» (Badvasi) is a product where a systematic approach fully pays off. In the field, I value the predictability of results: with a dosage rate of 0.5 to 1.0 l/t, it effectively handles the complex of pathogens that often eat up potential yields right from the start.

Why this product has become a staple for our farm

• Comprehensive disease control. The combination of Thiabendazole and Flutriafol covers major threats: from helminthosporium and fusarium root rot to septoria and smut. This is especially critical in regions with high infection pressure.
• Systemic action. Unlike contact fungicides, «Життедар» penetrates the seed and protects the seedling from within. For an agronomist, this means peace of mind during the first weeks of vegetation — seed mold is no longer a concern.
• Ease of use. The suspension concentrate mixes easily and does not clog seed treatment equipment nozzles, which is vital during the busy sowing season.

Practical application tips

Based on experience: adjust the dosage according to the soil's phytosanitary state. If the field follows cereal predecessors, use 1.0 l/t. One single application is enough, saving valuable time during the rush of the season. Being a class 3 hazard substance, it requires standard PPE, but it doesn't cause any major issues during tank mixing. «Бадвасі» created a product that simply does the job: predictable, efficient, and straightforward.
