Problad™
Origin and Composition
- PROBLAD® is a biological fungicide of natural origin. It is a concentrated plant extract of germinated seeds of sweet lupins, containing 20% (w/w) of BLAD protein active ingredient.
Formulation
- Liquid formulation
- Contact fungicide with translaminar activity
- Thorough coverage of foliage and fruits is a key factor to ensure optimal performance
- Spray volume should not exceed the point of run-of
- Safe and excellent resistance management tool due to its novel and unique Multi-site mode of action
Performance
- Broad spectrum (universal targets in fungal cells)
- Active against most life stages of disease (spores, hyphae, mycelium and haustoria)
- Can be integrated in conventional rotational programs with no negative impact on efficacy
- Preventative (7 to 10-day disease prevention)
- Curative/eradicant when applied at early stages of disease
- Fast knock down effect (less than 24 hours)
- Not affected by the pH of spray solution, except at pH 5.5
- Tank mix compatible with most fungicides, insecticides and fertilizers
