Flutriafol: instructions for use of the fungicide Triafol, consumption rates
Antifungal treatment of crops is one of the most important stages in the battle of farmers for the harvest. To destroy the infection and provide plants with stable protection against mycoses, flutriafol-based products are used, one of which is Triafol. The drugs of this group have rightfully won the first positions among monocomponent fungicides designed to combat fungal diseases of grain, a number of vegetable and fruit crops.
Composition and existing forms of release of the curing fungicide
The active composition of the fungicide "Triafol" is represented by the substance flutriafol, contained in the amount of 250 grams per 1 liter of the total volume of the product.The drug is produced as a suspension concentrate, packaged in 5 liters and packed in plastic containers with a screw cap.
Operation principle
Flutriafol, having a high penetrating ability, quickly enters the conducting system of the culture through the foliage and spreads through the tissues. The connection moves acropetally following the growing point, which provides protection for young growth.
Getting into the focus of infection, the flutriafol molecule binds to the protein responsible for the assembly of ergosterol in fungal cells. Due to the stoppage of the synthesis of sterols, the formation of the cell membrane is disrupted, the development of mycelium hyphae stops.
Flutriafol has a contact-systemic effect, as well as a fumigation effect, which allows the use of preparations based on it for the treatment of plants affected by mycoses and the prevention of the spread of fungal infections.
What is used for
Fungicide "Triafol" is intended for antifungal treatment of agricultural plantings of spring and winter crops (wheat, barley), sugar beets, grapes.
The drug is active against the causative agents of the following diseases:
- powdery mildew;
- rust;
- scab;
- spotting;
- septoria;
- pyrenophorosis;
- fusarium lesion of an ear of wheat;
- rhynchosporiasis;
- cercosporosis;
- phomoz.
Treatment of vineyards provides plantings with protection against oidium, which affects most European plant varieties.
Fungicide "Triafol" is used in agriculture for therapeutic and prophylactic treatment of apple orchards, in order to combat pathogens of scab and powdery mildew.Flutriafol provides protection to treated cultures as early as 6-7 hours after spraying. The effect lasts up to 6 weeks.
When treating external mycoses (rust, powdery mildew), the life cycles of fungal cells are disrupted during the first hours after spraying. In the case of internal infections (septoria), suppression of the development of fungal colonies occurs within 10-14 days.
Drug consumption rate
"Triafol" is used in accordance with the manufacturer's recommended dosages and norms for the consumption of the working solution.
Triafol fungicide consumption rates for different crops:
Treatment object | Fungicide dose, liter/literWorking solution consumption, liter/hectare | Spraying period | Treatment frequency | Waiting time, days | |
0.5 |
300 | Growing season | 1 | 50 | |
Barley | |||||
Sugarbeet | 0.25 | During the growing season, at the first sign of infection | 1-2 | 30 | |
0.125 | 500-1000 | Before and after flowering | 4 | 50 | |
0.1 - 0.15 | 1000-1200 | Green cone stage, early budding, after flowering | 4 | 60 |
Repeated treatments are carried out after 10-14 days. The exit period for manual and mechanized work is 7 days and 3 days respectively.
Instructions for using the product
Crop treatment with Triafol is carried out with freshly prepared aqueous dilution of the concentrate by spraying the aerial parts of plants.
Preparation of the working solution includes two stages. In the first step, the concentrated suspension is thoroughly mixed with an equal amount of water. At the next stage, the sprayer tank is filled with a third of the total volume of water and, with constant stirring, the primary dilution is added. Then add the remaining water.
Mechanical sprayers are used for irrigation. In the process of work, continue mixing the solution.

- use of protective equipment (closed suit, thick rubber gloves, goggles, respirator);
- application of mechanized spraying methods;
- compliance with the recommended time for applying the fungicide.
Crop processing is carried out in calm weather, preferably in the evening. It is necessary to limit the years of bees to at least 6 hours. It is permissible to carry out spraying in the early morning hours. Nearby beekeeping farms are notified about the work. Aviation method of spraying is not used.
