Systemic translaminar two-component fungicide for combating diseases of rapeseed and sunflower during flowering and for increasing their yields.
Fluopyram — inhibition (blocking) of mitochondrial respiration in pathogen cells (complex II), prothioconazole — inhibition of ergosterol. Fluopyram begins to act immediately upon contact with the plant surface. It has translaminar (penetrating) action and penetrates into tissues through intercellular spaces. Prothioconazole has full systemic action.
Propulse® — a new systemic fungicide with two active ingredients for the most effective protection of winter rapeseed crops against alternaria, sclerotinia, cylindrospermosis, gray mold, powdery mildew, and other diseases that can significantly damage crops during flowering and grain-filling stages. For sunflower crop protection, Propulse® is applied once or twice depending on the disease spectrum and threat level to yield. It has high efficacy in prevention and control of sunflower diseases such as sclerotinia, alternaria, fusarium, gray mold, powdery mildew, etc. The combination of fluopyram and prothioconazole achieves unparalleled disease control and yield increase.
APPLICATION
Winter rapeseed
Sclerotinia, alternaria, and other diseases: spray application during full flowering stage (50% of main stem flowers blooming) — 0.8–1.0 L/ha
SUNFLOWER
Two applications: first — at bud stage, 0.9 L/ha; second — at full flowering stage (appearance of 1/3 of flowers on heads) — 0.9–1.0 L/ha
or single application:
at full flowering stage (appearance of 1/3 of flowers on heads) — 1.0 L/ha
APPLICATION TECHNIQUE
It is recommended to use dribble spraying with a working solution volume of 200–400 L/ha depending on the type of field sprayer. Use flat-fan or injector nozzles to ensure maximum penetration of the working solution into the plant canopy. The operating speed of the equipment should not exceed 5–6 km/hour. WARNING: Trailer-mounted sprayers and tractors (minimum from the front) must be additionally equipped with protective rubber (canvas) covers at points of contact with rapeseed plants. Treatment is preferably carried out in the evening when plants have lost turgor. For sunflower treatment, self-propelled sprayers (application during flowering) are used.
Selectivity
At recommended application rates, Propulse® is well tolerated by all rapeseed varieties.
TOXICITY TO BEES
At recommended application rates, Propulse® is not toxic to bees and pollinating insects. During rapeseed cultivation in the flowering stage, for pest control, it is recommended to mix with the bee-safe insecticide Biscaya®.
