Broad Spectrum Fungicides That Protect Your Crop Yield

Broad spectrum fungicides are specific types of pesticides that control many fungal diseases by specifically inhibiting or killing the fungi that cause the diseases.

Broadly, our fungicides help you in the following three main areas:

1. To control a disease during the establishment and development of a crop.

2. To increase productivity of a crop and to reduce blemishes. Diseased food crops may produce less because the disease affects their leaves, which the crops need for photosynthesis.

   Blemishes can affect the edible part of the crop or, in the case of ornamentals, their attractiveness, which both can affect the market value of the crop.

3. To improve the storage life and quality of harvested plants and produce. Some of the greatest disease losses occur post-harvest. Fungi often spoil (render unusable) stored fruits, vegetables, tubers, and seeds.

   A few which infect grains produce toxins (mycotoxins) capable of causing severe illness or even death in humans and animals when consumed.

In contrast with most human medicines, you need to apply most broad spectrum fungicides before disease occurs or at the first appearance of symptoms to be effective.

Unlike many diseases of humans and animals, the damage caused by diseases on plants often does not go away, even if the fungicide has killed the pathogen. This is because plants grow and develop differently from animals.

The great thing with our fungicides is that they not only protect new uninfected growth from disease but also do protect and cure.

Few fungicides are effective against pathogens after they have infected a plant.

These few fungicides that have "curative" properties, which means they are active against pathogens that have already infected the plant, tend to have a higher risk of pathogens developing resistance to the fungicide.

Our broad spectrum fungicides are used as formulated products consisting of active ingredients plus inert ingredients that improve the performance of the products. These fungicides are typically mixed with water then applied by spraying.

Coverage of all parts of the plant susceptible to the disease is critical because very few fungicides can move adequately throughout a plant. Advancements are continually being made to nozzles and sprayers to improve coverage.

For many diseases, effective control necessitates multiple applications of the broad spectrum fungicides, sometimes as frequently as every 5 days.

You need to apply repeatedly to protect new growth and to replace fungicide lost from the plant by chemical decomposition, Ultra Violet light degradation, and erosion by wind and water.
