Fungicide Infinito: instructions for use, mechanism of action, consumption rates

The German pesticide manufacturer, Bayer, has prepared an innovative systemic drug "Infinito" against fungal diseases of potatoes. The tool is especially important for farmers who grow crops on an industrial scale. But the instruction for the use of the Infinito fungicide advises using it on personal subsidiary farms, protecting potato crops from late blight.

Composition and release form of the product

Carbamic acid derivative propamocarb hydrochloride has long been used in the fight against pathogenic microorganisms. It is not for nothing that the substance is included in fungicidal preparations. In 1 liter of Infinito there are 62.5 grams of a representative of the carbamate class.

The same amount of fluopicolide. It is used for fungicidal-type factory preparations. The substance is active against fungi of the class Oomycetes.

The concentrate is produced in the form of a suspension, where particles of chemicals are dissolved in water. The suspension does not decompose for a long time, so the mixture is used for spraying vegetable crops. In addition to the main components, the Infinito preparation contains up to 10 inert ingredients that provide the viscosity of the concentrate and an electric charge. Due to this, during processing, particles of the suspension are attracted to the surface of the leaves, stems.

The product is packaged in 5 liter canisters.

Mechanism of action

The action of the main components is of a contact and systemic nature. Getting on parts of plants, substances cause the death of fungi. The contact action of the fungicide is associated with the inhibition of the reproductive functions of pathogens.Therefore, after spraying, the infection of leaves and stems stops.

But "Infinito" acts on pathogens and systemically, penetrating inside in doses that are safe for the plant. A mixture of contact and systemic fungicide destroys internal and external infection of fungal origin. As a result of the action, microorganisms die both on the surface of plants and inside plant cells.

Carrying out preventive measures leads to an increase in the resistance of vegetable crops to the action of pathogens. The use of fungicide stimulates the growth of potatoes, tomatoes. Hence the increase in vegetable yields.

Benefits of Infinito Fungicide"

Infinito has:

• new mechanism of action due to the inclusion of fluopicolide in its composition;
• property to protect plants from late blight on leaves and stems;
• duration;
• the ability to increase yields;
• opportunity to protect potato tubers from diseases.

The drug is recommended for spraying seed and food plantings for therapeutic and prophylactic purposes.

Protection period

The Infinito tool is valued for its ability to protect vegetable crops from pathogenic fungi for a long time.

After the treatment for 1-2 weeks, the plant is protected by the components of the drug.

Impact speed

Plants are treated with Infinito in the morning or evening. Already after 2-4 hours, the substances begin their protective effect on the leaves and stems. Infected plants will die of fungi and spores, stopping their spread.

Preparation of working solution

To dilute the suspension, take 5 liters of pure water. Pour half the norm of water into a special container of the sprayer. There - 15 ml of fungicidal suspension, stirring thoroughly. Then the rest of the water is added. The concentrate particles must be completely dissolved. For 20 ml of "Infinito" take 6 liters of water. Enough of this amount of working solution per hundred square meters of the garden.

Instructions for use and consumption

The drug is used to prevent the occurrence of fungal infections, spraying 2 times per season:

1. For potatoes, the consumption of working fluid is 1.6 liters per hectare of plantings. The drug is sprayed after the flowering of the culture twice with a break of 10-15 days. Last time 2 weeks before harvest.
2. Tomatoes are sprayed 2 weeks after planting in open ground. Processing frequency is the same as for potatoes.
3. Cucumbers, the drug will help resist rot during the growing season. Enough 15 ml of suspension for a double treatment.
4. 40 days before harvesting cabbages, the last spraying of vegetable beds should be carried out.

For farmers, the consumption of the working solution will be 400 liters per hectare.

Precautions

Fungicide "Infinito" refers to toxic drugs. It is necessary to protect children and animals from contact with the agrochemical. It is necessary to prepare a solution for spraying in a special container. When using the product, you must:

• protect the skin, mucous membranes from getting liquid on them;
• apply all the product at once, leaving no excess in accessible places;
• do not pour the remaining liquid on the ground or into the water, but dispose of it;
• do not eat, smoke or drink alcohol.

They try to process Infinito in the morning or in the evening in calm, calm weather. Do not use the drug in areas located near the apiary, places where nectar is collected by bees, ponds.

After treatment, wash hands thoroughly, face with soap. You can treat open areas of the body with a solution of ammonia, chlorhexidine. The mouth is rinsed, the mucous membranes are washed with water. When ingested, chemicals take activated charcoal, cleanse the stomach by inducing a gag reflex.

Toxicity

Fungicide "Infinito" carries a moderate danger to humans and animals. Bees can be poisoned by toxic substances if they used the drug without observing the norm. Getting into the soil, agrochemicals do not decompose for a long time, they are removed only after 15-20 days.Therefore, after the excess fungicide enters the ground, it is necessary to carry out measures to disinfect the soil. To do this, the area is spilled with water and soap or soda (200 grams per bucket) and dug up.

Compatibility with other fungicides and drug toxicity

You can use the fungicide "Infinito" with other drugs of systemic or contact action. But before that, determine the compatibility of the agent. In the event of precipitation, an increase in the temperature of the working solution of the mixture, it is necessary to abandon its use in the fight against fungal infections of garden plants.

Storage of the drug "Infinito" is carried out in utility rooms outside the house, in an inaccessible place. The container must be tightly closed. The suspension is stored for 3 years. The storage temperature should not fall below 15 degrees in the cold season and rise above 35 degrees in the summer.

Similar products

In order to avoid resistance to the components of the fungicidal preparation, it is replaced with analogues. Among the means with similar actions, a concentrated suspension of "Consento" is noted. It is based on propamocarb hydrochloride and substances that have a detrimental systemic effect on pathogens and a protective effect on vegetable crops.

Cope with pathogenic fungi and other drugs based on carbamates, such as Quadris, Acrobat.
