Reliable protection for rapeseed: the experience with Stefiqur S.C.

When it comes to protecting winter rapeseed crops, a systematic approach is the decisive factor. Stefiqur S.C., based on tebuconazole, has long established itself as a reliable tool for agronomists working with intensive cultivation technologies. The main advantage of this fungicide is its ability not only to suppress disease development but also to act as a growth regulator, which is critical for the crop's successful overwintering.

Efficacy against a range of diseases

While using this product, you notice its high selectivity against pathogens such as phoma, alternaria, and cylindrosporiosis. Its systemic action ensures rapid penetration into plant tissues, allowing the fungicide to effectively "catch" infections even during active growth phases. Experience shows that by following the application rates of 0.5–1 L/ha, the product delivers stable results even under the unpredictable weather conditions often seen in spring.

Operational features and application

• Flexible timing: It is optimal to plan the application based on phytosanitary monitoring, while always remembering the 30-day pre-harvest interval.
• Treatment schedule: Depending on the infection pressure, one or two treatments per season are sufficient for full control.
• Ease of use: The suspension concentrate formulation is convenient for preparing the spray solution—it does not clog nozzles and mixes well, which simplifies sprayer maintenance in the field.

For growers who value predictability, this product manufactured by DDE Farm AG (Liechtenstein) is a solid solution. The product belongs to hazard class 3, requiring standard safety precautions, but its ease of application allows for efficient protection logistics without wasting time on overly complex tank mixtures.
