Effective Protection for Cereals and Oilseed Rape: Operating Insights

When dealing with fusarium or septoria, effective crop protection comes down to precision. Tebuconazole, the active ingredient, is a industry staple, but Rotam’s formulation ensures stable concentrations and predictable performance within tank mixes.

Application and Dosage Performance

The product comes as a suspension concentrate, making it easy to mix and apply without clogging spray nozzles. For winter crops like wheat, barley, and rye, a regimen of 1–2 applications provides excellent coverage. Furthermore, Ikarus Turbo has proven its effectiveness on winter oilseed rape in controlling phoma and cylindrosporiosis during critical seasonal growth stages.

• Dual Action: Provides both curative and preventative effects, stopping mycelium growth upon contact.
• Wide Spectrum: Highly effective against alternaria, powdery mildew, and fusarium head blight.
• Operational Logistics: Classified as hazard class 3, which simplifies handling and ensures a safer environment for field personnel.

Pro tip for operators: timing is everything. Do not wait for visual symptoms to become widespread. The product works best when applied early in the infection cycle. Since tebuconazole is systemic, it moves through the plant tissues; however, ensuring high-quality coverage during spraying remains essential for maximizing efficacy, especially when protecting the head of the plant from late-season diseases.
