Bumper Super KE

Crop Protection Strategy with Bumper Super EC

Bumper Super EC, developed by ADAMA MAKHTESHIM LTD. (Israel), is a versatile fungicide designed for professional growers of wheat, barley, soybeans, and sunflowers. By leveraging a dual-action formula containing prochloraz and propiconazole, this product provides both curative and preventative control against a wide array of fungal threats.

On-Farm Application Scenarios

Agronomists rely on Bumper Super EC to mitigate risks associated with high disease pressure in intensive farming systems:

• Cereal Crops: Excellent for managing rusts (yellow, brown, stem), septoria, and powdery mildew. Crucially, it is highly effective against fusarium head blight, a major factor in protecting grain quality and safety.
• Technical Crops: In soybean and sunflower production, the fungicide helps maintain canopy health, preserving leaf surface area for maximum photosynthetic activity until maturity.

Dual-Action Technology

The synergy between systemic and contact properties is what sets Bumper Super EC apart. The contact component (prochloraz) delivers immediate activity on the leaf surface, while the systemic component (propiconazole) moves through the plant tissues to protect newly emerged foliage. Its emulsifiable concentrate formulation ensures excellent coverage and resistance to wash-off, even in challenging weather conditions.

Application Guidelines

For optimal results, apply at a rate of 0.8–1.2 liters per hectare, depending on crop density and disease severity. A maximum of two applications per season is permitted. Users should strictly observe a 30-day pre-harvest interval to ensure safety and compliance. This flexibility allows farmers to integrate Bumper Super EC effectively into their overall seasonal crop protection programs.
