Pictor fungicide: instructions for use, mechanism of action, consumption rates

Cultivated plants are most often affected by fungal pathogens due to weather variability or non-compliance with agrotechnical standards of cultivation. Fungicide "Pictor" refers to systemic combined preparations that have a wide spectrum of action and protect against a number of diseases associated with bad weather conditions. To enhance growth and increase the yield, "Piktor" is an indispensable tool in the processing of sunflower and rapeseed.

Composition, dosage form and purpose of the drug

The effectiveness of the AgCelence brand drug when used is due to the presence of active substances in the composition: boscalid and dimoxystrobin. Both components are contained in the same concentration - 200 g/l.

Boskalid belongs to carboxamides and achieves the greatest effectiveness in the implementation of preventive treatments. Part of the substance adjoins the surface of the plant and protects it from secondary infection, while the remaining component penetrates into the wire system of the plant and begins to spread rapidly, recognizing fungal cells, suppressing their vital processes and blocking oxygen from entering the pathogen. Dimoxistrobin penetrates into the mitochondria of fungi and prevents the progress of the respiratory chain of the body.

Pictor fungicide is effective in the presence of diseases:

• scleritinases;
• phomoz;
• alternariosis;
• rot;
• rust;
• powdery mildew.

The drug also copes with other fungal phytopathogens.

Pictor fungicide release form - suspension concentrate in liter and five-liter bottles.

Fungicide mechanism of action

The substance penetrates the plant and in the first minutes attacks the respiratory system of the fungus, preventing the oxidation of organic compounds. The pathogen dies from lack of oxygen.

Fungicide "Pictor" eliminates the negative impact on yield, increases the productivity of nitrate reductase, worsens the production of ethylene, accelerating the process of photosynthesis.

Benefits of "Piktor"

The fungicide has established itself among consumers due to a number of advantages that greatly ex alt it against the background of other products:

• reliable and fast action on the pathogen;
• guaranteed disease prevention;
• activation of photosynthesis, increased resistance to stress;
• increasing the quantity and quality of the harvest.

After a day after the use of "Pictor", you can notice a strong therapeutic effect.

Expenditure rate

The amount of consumption of fungicide "Pictor" does not depend on the object of processing. For sunflower, winter and spring rapeseed, the consumption rate of the drug is 0.5 l/ha. The number of sprays should not exceed 1 time, this is enough for the complete disappearance of the pathogen.

How to prepare a working solution?

It is necessary to dilute the drug before processing cultivated plants. To prepare, fill the tank 1/3 with water, add the required amount of Piktor fungicide in accordance with the instructions, while the mixer should be actively working. Then add more water so that the entire container is filled.

The norm of the working solution is 300-400 l/ha.

Instructions for using the drug

Processing can be performed at the flowering stage, it is better to choose exactly the period when the plant is in the phase of 8-10 petals. In the presence of symptoms of the disease, spraying should be carried out immediately. The maximum processing time for rapeseed is one month before harvest, and for sunflower - two.

Safety precautions when working with the tool

Processing is carried out in dry calm weather in the morning or in the evening. Day spraying is allowed only in case of cloudy weather. Wear a protective suit and mask when working with a moderately toxic agent.

Before spraying, it is worth warning the owners of neighboring territories a few days in advance. Check the sprayer in advance for operability, containers that will be involved in the process. Use of these devices for other purposes is not recommended.

Important! During processing, do not allow the substance to come into contact with the mucous membranes and skin. If the solution gets on the skin, wash the affected area, and if it gets inside, clean the stomach.

Toxicity

Fungicide "Piktor" is not dangerous for pollinators, but is characterized by medium toxicity to humans, so precautions are taken when working with the drug.

Compatibility

Product approved for use with many pesticides, herbicides and complementary fungicides. This will increase the effectiveness of each component, save time, and reduce the resistance of pathogens to drugs.

Drug storage

The expiration date of the fungicide "Pictor" is no more than 2 years. Keep out of the reach of children, away from food at temperatures from 0 to 35 degrees and low humidity.

Fungicide analogues

Analogues of the drug "Piktor" does not exist.
