Fungicide Zymoshans: instructions for use and composition, dosage and analogues
It is unlikely that it will be possible to harvest a good harvest from the fields or even a garden with the most careful care without the use of chemicals. Fungal diseases are difficult to remove. Fighting them with bare hands is almost useless. Today, industry produces a mass of funds for agricultural workers. Spraying plantings with Zymoshans will be a lifesaver in growing many crops.
Composition and form of release of the drug "Zimoshans"
Suspension contains 1 liter 500 g of the active substance carbendazim. The manufacturing company - Shans LLC (Russia), packs the product in 5-liter canisters.
How the remedy works
The drug is used during the growing season of plants. "Zimoshans" has a detrimental effect on a number of fungal pathogenic organisms, penetrating into their tissues. There it prevents cell division. The introduction of the fungus into the body allows carbendazim to act actively for 2-3 weeks, without being exposed to the destructive effects of the external environment. In addition, the low solubility of the drug in water makes it possible to use it in short periods between precipitation. Its high degree of adhesion ensures that the active substance has time to penetrate into the diseased plant.
Zymoshans binds to a protein that forms microtubules in the cell. These formations maintain the shape of the cell, perform transport functions in it, and participate in the division process. Stopping the renewal of the number of microtubules quickly leads to the death of the entire fungus.
The drug shows its effect in a few days, but its distribution throughout the body of the cultivated plant determines the protection against infection and the young vegetative mass that has grown during this time, and the root system.
What a fungicide is used for
"Zimoshans" is used either for the purpose of prevention from fungal pathologies, or already at the stage of the development of the disease. It effectively protects many crops, sunflowers, vegetables and trees.
Disease | Signs of infection | Crops affected |
Cercosporellosis | In early spring or late autumn on the first leaf, then yellow-brown spots on the base of the stem. Lodging during ear ripening. Wrinkled grain. | Wheat, barley, sugar beet. The whole ear or part of it turns white, a pale pink coating appears, eventually becoming orange-red. Then black dots appear. |
Root and root rot | Wilting and death.Wheat, barley, rye. | |
Septoria leaves and ears | Reduction of green mass, head, increased bushiness, premature ripening. | |
Pyrenophorosis | Yellow spots 2-5 mm on both sides . A bulge appears in the center. | |
Powdery mildew | White coating on leaves, stems, petioles and fruits. | |
Brown rust | Round and oval dusting pustules on the leaf surface. | |
Phomopsis | Large brown triangular spot, pointed towards petiole. The stem is brittle, its core is pink, it lies down from the wind. The seeds are easily separated from the cap. | Sunflower. |
Consumption rate and application of funds
Aqueous solution of the drug requires careful stirring. Consumption of working fluid - on average, 300 l/ha.
The proportion of Zimoshans suspension in it is indicated in the table:
Crops | Norm, l/ha|

0.6-0.8 |
Instructions for preparing the solution:

- Turn on the mixer and pour in the slurry.
- Stir 7-10 minutes.

The use of "Zimoshans" must be alternated with the use of another fungicide with a different active ingredient. Otherwise, forms of pathogenic fungi resistant to the drug will appear. Carbendazim does not react with acids, but is active against alkalis.
