Agri SF Systemic Fungicide

Product Description

Pesticides called systemic fungicides are used to treat fungal diseases in plants. Systemic fungicides provide internal defence against fungal diseases within the plant, as opposed to contact fungicides, which only protect the surfaces they come into direct contact with.

Following are some essential details concerning systemic fungicides:

1. Systemic fungicides have two different modes of action: fully systemic and locally systemic. In order to partially protect the plant, locally systemic fungicides migrate acropetally (upward) or basipetally (downward) inside the vascular system. Fully systemic fungicides are distributed throughout the entire plant, reaching every part and providing complete defence.

2. Controlling disease: Systemic fungicides are efficient against a range of fungi that cause foliar, root, and soil-borne infections. They can stop fungus from growing and reproducing or alter their metabolic processes.

3. Systemic fungicides are given to plants via a variety of techniques, such as foliar sprays, soil drenches, seed treatments, or injections into the stems or trunk of the plant. The target disease, crop, and recommendations for a given product all influence the application technique.

4. Persistence: When compared to contact fungicides, systemic fungicides can offer longer-lasting protection. For a while, they might remain in the plant tissues, providing continued protection against fungi.

5. Management of resistance: It is crucial to rotate systemic fungicides with various modes of action and use them in conjunction with other disease management techniques, such as cultural practises and resistant crop varieties, in order to prevent the development of fungicide resistance.

It's critical to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for the right application rates, timing, and safety precautions because unique product compositions and recommendations can differ.
