Content
Agricultural crops are susceptible to fungal diseases that spread at high humidity and air temperature. To protect plantings from diseases, the drug Prosaro is used. The fungicide prevents the development of diseases and increases the immune properties of plants.
Features of the fungicide
The drug Prosaro has a systemic effect. Its components penetrate the vascular system of plants and destroy pathogenic cells.
The fungicide has a complex effect: it protects crops from the spread of diseases, eliminates infections and stimulates plant immunity.
After treatment, the effect of using the solution remains for 2-5 weeks. The period of action depends on climatic conditions and the degree of plant infection.
Prozaro contains two active ingredients: tebuconazole and prothioconazole. The content of each component is 125 g/l.
The fungicide Prosaro Quantum has a pronounced protective effect. 1 liter of the drug contains 80 g of tebuconazole and 160 g of prothioconazole. Fungicide Prosaro Quantum is used to treat wheat and rapeseed.
The active substances belong to triazoles, but have different rates of penetration into plant cells.As a result, Prosaro provides both long-term protection and a good therapeutic effect.
Tebuconazole is a substance that can penetrate plant tissue and destroy pathogenic cells. The component acts against any type of rust to which grain crops are susceptible.
Prothioconazole has healing and protective properties. After penetration into plant cells, the substance has a positive effect on the development of crops. The component spreads through plant tissues more slowly, which provides long-term protection.
Thanks to prothioconazole, plants develop a developed root system, bushiness and crop quality increase. Crops absorb nutrients better and tolerate drought.
The drug Prosaro is supplied to the market by the German company Bayer. The fungicide has the form of a liquid emulsion, packaged in 5-liter plastic canisters.
Advantages
Prosaro fungicide has a number of advantages:
- helps prevent various crop diseases;
- has a protective effect and prevents the spread of fungus;
- increases plant resistance to infections;
- eliminates pathogens after they penetrate plant tissues;
- reduces the concentration of mycotoxins in grains;
- acts immediately after use;
- is not phytotoxic if dosages are observed;
- effective regardless of weather conditions;
- provides a long period of protection.
Flaws
The main disadvantages of the Prosaro fungicide are recognized:
- the need to adhere to established dosages;
- mandatory compliance with safety regulations;
- high cost of the drug.
Application procedure
The drug Prosaro is used in the required concentration.To prepare the solution, enamel or plastic dishes are required.
The emulsion is first diluted in a small volume of water. Then add the remaining amount of liquid. Plants are processed leaf by leaf manually or using special equipment.
Wheat
Spring and winter wheat are susceptible to fusarium head blight. The disease is fungal in nature and leads to loss of up to 20% of the crop.
With fusarium blight, the harvested grain is of poor quality and contains mycotoxins. Such a product is not acceptable for processing, including as animal feed.
Fusarium spreads during the flowering period. Therefore, preventive treatments are carried out precisely during this period, when the first visible anthers appear on the ear.
In accordance with the instructions for use of the Prosaro fungicide, 1 liter of emulsion is taken per 1 hectare of plantings. The consumption of the prepared solution is 300 liters per 1 ha.
Prosaro is also used to protect wheat from powdery mildew, rust and dark brown spot. The dose of the drug per 1 hectare is set at 0.6-0.8 liters. To spray a given area, 200 liters of solution are required. The treatment is carried out at the beginning of wheat heading.
Barley
Barley needs protection from powdery mildew, blight, rust and rhynchosporium. Treatment with Prosaro fungicide is carried out at the beginning of heading of the crop. 1-2 procedures are required per season. Repeated spraying is carried out 30 days after the first procedure.
A solution of the Prosaro fungicide is prepared according to the instructions for use: from 0.6 to 0.8 liters of suspension is taken per 1 hectare of plantings. 200 liters of prepared solution is enough to treat 1 hectare.
Rape
Fungal diseases phomosis and altrenaria pose a serious danger to rapeseed.The lesion affects both young and adult plants. The spread of diseases is caused by harmful fungi.
Treatment with the Prosaro fungicide according to the instructions begins when there are signs of disease - dark spots on the stems and leaves. Spraying is repeated after 10-14 days.
For 1 ha, 0.6 to 0.8 liters of suspension is sufficient. The norm of the working solution for the specified area is 250 l.
Corn
Corn plantings can be seriously damaged by root rot, fusarium blight, cob mold, and blister smut. Affected plants lag behind in development and, in the absence of therapeutic measures, die.
To protect the plantings, prepare a solution of the Prosaro fungicide. According to the instructions, 100 ml of suspension is needed for 1 hundred square meters. The consumption of the resulting liquid for spraying a given area should not exceed 300-400 liters.
Spraying is carried out once during the flowering period for the purpose of prevention or in the presence of the first symptoms of disease. It is recommended to use Prosaro fungicide together with insecticides.
Precautionary measures
The drug Prosaro has a hazard class 2 for humans and a hazard class 3 for bees. When interacting with the solution, adhere to safety rules.
Before starting work, put on rubber gloves and a respirator. The solution is used within 24 hours after preparation. During treatment, animals and people without protective equipment are removed from the area. Spraying is carried out away from water bodies.
Spraying is carried out in dry, cloudy weather. You can choose morning or evening.
If the solution gets inside, you need to drink several glasses of clean water and activated carbon in the amount of 1 g per 1 kg of body weight. Be sure to see a doctor.
The drug Prosaro is stored in a dry place, inaccessible to animals and children. The storage period is no more than 2 years from the date of production.

Conclusion
The drug Prosaro has a complex effect on plants. Its components penetrate plant tissue and neutralize cells of harmful fungi. As a result, crops become more resistant to infections, drought and weather conditions.
The fungicide is suitable for disease prevention and also successfully copes with lesions on plants. When working with the drug, follow safety rules. The working solution stays on leaves and shoots for a long time, which reduces the number of treatments.
