Acrobat® MC

Acrobat® MC: Professional Fungicidal Protection by BASF S.A.

Originating from the agricultural expertise of BASF S.A. in Brazil, Acrobat® MC has solidified its reputation as a gold-standard solution for controlling oomycetes in high-value vegetable and vineyard production. By combining the systemic power of dimethomorph with the robust contact action of mancozeb, this product offers a dual-action defense mechanism that is vital for modern intensive farming.

Targeted Action against Fungal Threats

The formulation’s success lies in its dual approach: the systemic component travels within the plant to halt the fungal development from the inside, while the contact component creates a protective barrier on the leaf surface. This strategy is highly effective against major threats such as late blight, alternaria, downy mildew, and peronosporosis. Growers rely on it specifically for its ability to protect both existing leaves and new growth.

Despite being classified under safety class 2, Acrobat® MC remains a staple in the rotation of professional farmers. Its reputation is built on reliability, particularly in humid conditions where fungal pathogens tend to flare up quickly. Whether preventing early-stage infections or managing mid-season pressure, this BASF product provides the durability needed to ensure consistent crop yields.
