Compact Plus 25 KS

Professional crop protection for cereals and beets

When dealing with fungal outbreaks like powdery mildew or septoria, performance matters. Using 'Compact Plus 25 SC' from DVA Chemicals Co. Ltd. has shown me that reliability in the field comes down to consistent systemic action. Flutriafol, the active ingredient, absorbs quickly into the plant, providing a robust internal and external shield against disease.

Field Application Insights

• Crop Range: I use it primarily on winter and spring wheat, barley, and fodder beet. It’s particularly effective against helminthosporium and rhynchosporium.
• Dosage: The application rate of 0.5–0.75 L/ha provides excellent flexibility. For high-pressure disease years, I stick to the higher rate to ensure a complete stop of the pathogen.
• Operational Guidelines: The product is rated for up to two treatments per season. I always keep the 30-day pre-harvest interval in mind to comply with agricultural safety standards.

As a practitioner, I appreciate the suspension concentrate formulation. It mixes cleanly in the tank, doesn't clog nozzles, and maintains excellent stability. Because it acts both systemically and upon contact, it provides a safety net if your spraying coverage isn't 100% perfect, as the active ingredient translocates within the plant tissues to protect areas that might have been missed.

Practical Maintenance

With a hazard class of 3, proper protective equipment is a must, but the product itself is straightforward to handle. It doesn't foam excessively during mixing, which saves time when reloading the sprayer. The combination of German-led development (DVA Agro GmbH) and high-quality production standards makes this a sensible choice for anyone looking to secure their yield without overcomplicating their spray program.
