Seed treatment DEFENDA CHLORIS

Mechanism of action

Tebuconazole – destroys surface and internal infection, making it highly effective against smut diseases, fusarium and helminthosporium root rots, and septoria seedling blight. It has a pronounced systemic action and penetrates the seedling, ensuring reliable protection from seed germination to the tillering stage.

Prochloraz belongs to the imidazole group and has contact and translaminar action; it penetrates the seed coat and destroys surface infection, disinfecting the grain from fungi present on the seed surface and in the aleurone layer. It also disinfects the soil around the seed and the root system of the seedling, which is very important for obtaining healthy plants with maximum productivity. This active ingredient is highly effective against fusarium, helminthosporium and other types of root and basal rots, net blotch and dark-brown leaf spot, and acts actively against snow mould.
