The fungicide Paracelsus is a systemic-contact protective and curative agent intended for treatment of cereal crops, including wheat, barley, sugar beet, grapes, and fruit and berry trees and shrubs. The active ingredient is flutriafol at a concentration of 250 g/l, which is rapidly absorbed by plant leaves and surfaces, ensuring effective penetration and distribution throughout the entire plant tissue, including new shoots that emerge after treatment. This allows the product to provide long-lasting protection and quickly suppress the development of pathogenic fungi by disrupting their cell membranes and inhibiting nutrient biosynthesis.
Paracelsus is distinguished by high mobility and resistance to washout by rain within 30 minutes after application, guaranteeing retention of efficacy even under adverse weather conditions. The product has a fumigant effect, creating a protective cloud that covers the entire plant surface. The protective period lasts from 12 to 20 days, and in some cases up to 1.5 months, significantly reducing the frequency of treatments. Recommended application rates for wheat and other cereals are 5 ml per 5 liters of water per 100 square meters, with a maximum application frequency of up to two times, and for apple trees — up to four times.
Using Paracelsus not only prevents but also treats fungal diseases, providing reliable protection for the harvest and improving its quality. The product is non-phytotoxic and suitable for use on various crops, making it a universal tool in plant protection systems. The last application should be conducted 30-45 days prior to harvest, depending on the crop, ensuring both safety and efficacy.
