Malvin

Professional crop protection for orchards and vineyards

For growers looking for a reliable contact fungicide to manage fungal diseases, «Malvin» by Arysta LifeScience offers a robust solution based on Captan. Belonging to the phthalimide chemical class, this product acts as a protective barrier, effectively inhibiting spore germination on the plant surface before infection can take hold.

Practical use in farming operations

• Apple Orchards: Malvin is highly valued for controlling apple scab and fruit rot. Its preventative action makes it an essential choice during periods of frequent rainfall when systemic products might not be sufficient on their own.
• Vineyards: The fungicide is highly effective against downy mildew (mildew) and gray rot. By creating a protective film, it prevents pathogens from settling, which is crucial for maintaining fruit quality and yield.

Operational guidelines

The product is formulated as water-dispersible granules, ensuring easy mixing and application without the dust issues often found with powders. The recommended application rate ranges from 2.0 to 3.0 L/ha, depending on the crop growth stage and disease pressure. With a maximum of three applications per season, it fits perfectly into integrated pest management (IPM) programs, especially when rotated with systemic fungicides to prevent resistance buildup.

Please note the 40-day pre-harvest interval (PHI) for your last treatment. Because Malvin is a contact fungicide, uniform coverage of the leaves and fruit is the key to success. Ensure your sprayer equipment is calibrated to provide thorough coverage to guarantee the best biological results in your fields.
