Protecting winter crops: insights on using Dezal

When dealing with fungal infections in winter wheat and barley, selecting a reliable systemic fungicide is essential for maintaining yield potential. Dezal, based on carbendazim, has proven to be a workhorse in crop protection programs, specifically targeting diseases like powdery mildew, septoria, and fusarium. In the field, consistency is what matters most, and this product delivers.

Operational efficiency and application

The formulation as a suspension concentrate makes the preparation of the spray solution straightforward and hassle-free. It integrates well with standard sprayers, and the application rate of 0.5 to 1.0 l/ha allows for precise adjustment based on disease pressure. Whether you are dealing with eyespot (Cercosporella) or helminthosporium, the systemic action ensures that the active ingredient is redistributed within the plant tissues, providing robust protection.

• Systemic action: The active ingredient quickly moves throughout the plant, covering areas that might have been missed during the spraying process.
• Control spectrum: Effective against a wide array of cereal pathogens, ensuring healthy crops from early growth stages.
• Usage protocol: Up to two applications per season. A 30-day pre-harvest interval must be strictly followed to ensure residue levels remain within regulatory limits.

Being a class 3 hazard product, standard safety protocols during handling and application are non-negotiable. One of the key benefits for the operator is how well Dezal mixes with other tank components, which simplifies the overall crop management cycle. It is a reliable solution for producers looking to minimize the risk of yield loss and protect their investment in high-quality cereal production throughout the growing season.
