FACIM-STAR

Reliable Protection for Sunflowers

When threats like white or grey mold appear in sunflower fields, there is no time to hesitate. «Fatsim-Star» by «Agrostar Chemical» has become our go-to solution for managing pathogens comprehensively. As a systemic fungicide, it performs consistently in the field, penetrating plant tissues quickly to act from within.

Application and Field Performance

Operating with this product is straightforward thanks to its suspension concentrate formulation. It mixes easily in tank mixtures and does not clog sprayer nozzles, which is critical when covering large areas. We typically apply it at the first signs of Phomopsis or Phoma. With a dosage rate of 0.5–1.0 l/ha, it allows us to optimize costs without compromising protective efficacy.

• Pathogen Control: Effectively halts the development of downy mildew and various types of mold that often destroy up to 30% of the harvest.
• Flexibility: The product allows for up to two treatments per season, providing the ability to adjust based on weather conditions and infection pressure.
• Systemic Action: Thanks to the combination of cymoxanil and famoxadone, the product doesn't just treat the leaf surface; it spreads throughout the plant, providing long-lasting protection.

It is important to remember the hazard class 3 rating: while the product does not require extreme safety measures, adhering to application regulations and using basic personal protective equipment for the operator is essential. When applied correctly, «Fatsim-Star» does not cause phytotoxicity, allowing the sunflower crop to thrive without unnecessary stress.
