Reliable crop protection: practical experience with "Lospel"

When working with winter crops, seed treatment is the foundation of future yields. The Italian fungicide "Lospel" from "Isagro" has become an essential tool for us, consistently solving soil-borne and seed-borne infection issues. Based on tetraconazole, a member of the triazole group, it effectively manages a wide spectrum of pathogens.

Handling and dosage specifics

Based on our experience treating wheat and barley, "Lospel" is convenient due to its oil-in-water emulsion formulation. This provides better adhesion to the grain compared to standard concentrates, which is crucial for high-quality seed preparation. The application rate varies from 0.5 to 1.0 l/t. We usually stick to the upper limit when dealing with a high disease pressure, and the results are consistently reliable: root rots and smut diseases do not manifest even during wet, challenging seasons.

Systemic performance

As a systemic fungicide, "Lospel" starts working immediately after sowing. The protective barrier around the seed reliably stops fusarium and helminthosporium rots. A key point for an agronomist is that a single treatment per season is sufficient. This allows for precise budget planning and prevents overloading the technological cycle with unnecessary machinery passes. The product is compatible with most standard seed treatment equipment, does not clog nozzles, and produces a stable working solution.

• Effectively combats septoria, helminthosporiosis, and all types of smut.
• Suitable for a wide range of crops: from winter wheat and rye to oats and barley.
• Stable systemic action in the soil protects seedlings during critical growth stages.

For those who value Italian quality and predictable results in the field, "Lospel" remains one of the most balanced solutions in the triazole segment.
