Cyproconazole: instructions for use of the fungicide, compatibility and analogues

Fungal infections can affect any plant. Various agrochemical preparations are used to protect horticultural, horticultural crops, and cereal crops. The use of cyproconazole helps prevent the development of rust fungi, septoria, powdery mildew and a number of other diseases that can destroy plantings and future crops on crops.

Composition and formulation of systemic fungicide cyproconazole

The substance belongs to systemic pesticides. It has healing, protective and eradicating capabilities. Belongs to the chemical class of triazoles.It is a white, odorless crystalline substance. Highly soluble in organic solvents. It has thermal and photostability. Solutions with cyproconazole do not change properties when exposed to sunlight.

The agent is supplied to the market in the form of a suspension of various concentrations (from 0.06 to 40%) or an emulsion concentrate (3%). It is packaged in ampoules for use in suburban areas and polymer canisters with a capacity of 5 liters, for processing large areas. Alcor contains 400 grams/liter of cyproconazole.

Cyproconazole is often included in multicomponent agrochemical products. A label is required on a container with a pesticide, informing the consumer about the name of the drug, its manufacturer, rules of use and consumption rates.

Purpose and mechanism of action

The product is intended for dressing seeds, protecting plants from fungal infection and treating infected crops.Cyproconazole quickly penetrates into all parts of the plant, spreading acropetally (from the roots to the top), basipetally (from the top down and to the side leaves), has a translaminar effect - it is able to penetrate into the leaf plate through its upper layers. Passes from one leaf surface to another, the therapeutic effect when spraying infected plants occurs 15-20 minutes after treatment.

Used for processing spring and winter crops of wheat, barley, millet, rye. It is used to protect against fungal infection of grapes, sugar beet crops, spraying fruit trees, coffee plantations. Capable of fighting fungal diseases:

• scab;
• powdery mildew;
• various types of rust;
• Septoria;
• Phomosis;
• cercosporosis;
• all kinds of smut.

Suppresses the process of biosynthesis, penetrating into the intercellular membranes of the fungus, preventing its spread. Effectively destroys the infection that has arisen, quickly accumulating in plant tissues.

Consumption rate and rules for using funds

Spraying plants is carried out with a working solution of the drug. The concentrate is mixed with 1/3 of the recommended volume of water with constant stirring, then the amount of liquid is adjusted with water to the desired volume.

The drug is not washed off by precipitation and provides a protective effect for 45 days after treatment.

Important: do not exceed the recommended dosage of drugs.

Seeds are processed in special dressing machines. Spraying of crops is carried out at least a month before harvest. Mechanical work on the plots is allowed after 3 days after spraying plantings.

Safety when using the drug

Depending on the species, preparations with cyproconazole can have hazard class 2 or 3 for humans (severe or moderate toxicity) and hazard class 3 for bees. The preparation of the working solution is carried out on sites specially equipped for working with pesticides. They are located away from residential and agricultural buildings.

All seed dressing and plant spraying work is carried out by personnel trained in safety when using pesticides. Personnel are provided with protective suits, goggles, rubber gloves. During operation, it is forbidden to smoke, eat food.

When working in personal areas, drugs are diluted in containers not intended for food products. They wear tight clothes with long sleeves, protect their hands with rubber gloves, and protect their eyes with glasses or a protective screen.Hair is covered with a scarf or cap. At the end of the treatment, open areas of the body are washed with water, clothes are washed. The sprayer is freed from the remnants of the product, all parts are washed and dried.

If drugs get into the eyes or on the skin, the area is washed with a stream of running water. If funds are ingested, it is necessary to rinse the stomach and contact a medical institution, taking with you the label from the package of the drug, indicating its name and composition.

Compatibility

The product is compatible with most pesticides. Suitable for tank mixes, components are pre-tested for physical and chemical compatibility, taking into account the time of use of agrochemicals.

Storage conditions

Pesticides are stored in tightly closed original packaging. For industrial use - in specially equipped rooms for the maintenance of agrochemicals.When used in suburban areas, the drugs are placed in places inaccessible to children and pets. Do not store near medicines.

Expiration date - 2 years from date of manufacture.

What can I replace?

There are many preparations containing cyproconazole as an active substance, for example: "Avakss" EC; "Virtuoso" EC; "Maestro" EC; Alpari EC.
