Oplot seed treater: instructions for the use of fungicide and consumption rates

Cereal crops are susceptible to various diseases, most of which are caused by pathogenic fungi. The use of the drug "Oplot" as a seed disinfectant, according to the instructions for use, allows you to prevent the development of common infections in the absence of phytotoxicity. The fungicide has a curative effect and provides reliable protection at all stages of plant development.

Composition and release form of the product

The current composition of the drug "Oplot" includes two active ingredients - difenoconazole and tebuconazole, in quantities of 90 grams and 45 grams, respectively, in 1 liter of the total volume of the mixture.The product is packaged in sealed plastic containers with a capacity of 5 liters, in the form of a water-based suspension concentrate. Before use, the concentrate is dissolved in water.

How it works and the purpose of using Oplot

The composition of the drug includes two representatives of triazole fungicides with different mechanisms of action.

Tebuconazole, disrupting the formation of ergosterol in fungal cells, suppresses pathogens that cause root rot, smut fungi, molds.

Difenoconazole causes the death of fungal cells by developing dysfunction of cell membrane structures resulting from blocking the biosynthesis of styrenes. The compound is effective in the treatment and prevention of helminthosporiasis, alternariosis, as well as smut fungal infections, including dwarf smut of crops.

"Oplot" has a therapeutic and prophylactic fungicidal effect, protects grain crops and soybeans from a number of infections by pre-treatment of seed material.The combination of active ingredients makes it possible to control fungal diseases at all stages of plant development with a minimal risk of formation of resistance to the composition in the absence of phytotoxicity.

Fungicide consumption rate

The standards for the use of the drug are regulated by the instructions and depend on the type of culture and pathogenic strain.

Recommended consumption rates of "Oplot" for preplant seed treatment:

DiseaseDose of drug, liter/tonConsumption rate of working fluid, liter/ton Winter and spring wheat Smut fungal infectionsSmut smut Bunt smutFusariosis

Crop crop

Oats	Loose smut Rot Mildew Red-brown spotting	0.4 - 0.6
Soybeans	Mildew Ascochitosis Cercosporiasis	0.5-0.6	8

Seed treatment with Oplot is carried out once. After dressing, the composition forms a stable film on the surface of the seed.

Instructions for use

Etching is carried out with freshly prepared aqueous dilution of the suspension concentrate. The working solution of the drug is prepared in two stages. Shake the closed canister, measure out the required amount of concentrate and mix with an equal volume of water.

One third of the total volume of water is poured into the dressing tank and the first dilution of the drug is added. The liquids are mixed and adjusted with the remaining water to a predetermined volume. After immersing the seeds in the working solution, it is recommended to continue mixing to evenly distribute the suspension particles.

Precautions

Oplot is listed as a highly hazardous chemical substance (hazard class 2). Work with the composition requires compliance with the rules for the careful handling of chemically hazardous mixtures and the use of personal protective equipment.

Safe use of Oplot includes the following measures:

• use of protective equipment: gloves, respirator, eye shield;
• restriction of stay in the processing area of third parties and animals;
• application of seed treatment machines;
• disposal of containers and spent solution in accordance with the requirements applicable to hazardous chemical waste;
• exclusion of product getting into the soil, water bodies, sewage.

In case of contact with the floor or other surfaces, the area is washed with a solution of baking soda (200 grams of sodium bicarbonate is diluted in 10 liters of water). If the pesticide gets on the skin, the composition is washed off with soapy water. The mucous membrane of the eye, in contact with the solution, is washed with clean water.

If there are signs of intoxication, the victim is removed from work, taken to fresh air, and the overalls are carefully removed.They give an enterosorbent (at the rate of 1 gram of activated carbon per kilogram of body weight) with a large amount of clean drinking water and induce vomiting, after which the suspension of the enterosorbent is given again.

The presence of severe symptoms, deterioration of he alth requires urgent medical attention. Treatment of poisoning is symptomatic.

Compatibility with other products

Oplot is compatible with most pesticides and insecticides. It is not recommended to mix the drug with compounds with a pronounced acidity of the environment, as well as with strong alkalis.

Before using several products together, make sure the chemical compatibility of the components.

Terms and conditions of storage

Containers with the drug should be stored tightly closed, separate from household items and food, out of reach of children and animals, at a temperature not exceeding +35 °C.

Expiration date

3 years from the date of production, while maintaining the integrity of the packaging and observing the storage conditions.

Analogues

An analogue of "Oplot" in composition is the drug "Magnello", containing the same active ingredients, but in a higher dosage. "Magnello" is used for spraying seedlings of winter wheat and spring barley. An analogue of "Oplot" in terms of application is the "Oplot Trio" dressing agent, the composition of which is supplemented by the third active component - azoxystrobin
