Main product benefits
- Contact and systemic activity-improved flower quality through successful and reliable control of Botrytis.
- New chemistry-no cross-resistance hence provides a solution where resistant fungi have developed.
- Two different modes of action hence in built anti-resistance strategy.
- Broad-spectrum of activity-results in reduced number of applications and thus cost of disease management.
- Favourable safety profile-minimal impact on non-target organisms, a wide safety margin for beneficials and safe to users and consumers
- Pre-harvest botrytis control applied 14 days before harvest.
