Ultrasil: A Systemic Approach to Cereal Seed Treatment

Effective seed treatment is the foundation of high yield, especially when it comes to cereals. "Ultrasil," produced by the "Fabryka Ahrokhimikativ" in Cherkasy, Ukraine, is a specialized fungicide designed to protect seeds from the most common soil-borne and seed-borne pathogens.

Why Tebuconazole Matters

The core strength of Ultrasil lies in its active ingredient, Tebuconazole. Unlike contact fungicides that create only a surface film, this systemic agent is absorbed by the seed, providing long-lasting protection during the critical early germination and tillering stages. The emulsion formulation ensures uniform coverage, which is essential for ensuring that every seed receives a consistent dose of the active substance.

Key Benefits for Grain Producers

Ultrasil is highly effective against a broad spectrum of diseases that threaten winter wheat, barley, rye, and oats, including:

• Helminthosporium and Fusarium root rots;
• Various types of smut;
• Powdery mildew and Septoria;
• Seed mold.

With an application rate of 0.2–0.25 l/t, it offers a precise and economical way to secure crop density. It is specifically formulated for a single-treatment protocol, simplifying the workflow for agronomists during the busy pre-sowing period. Falling into the third hazard class, it is manageable in standard industrial settings provided that proper safety protocols are followed.

Strategic Advantage

For farms focusing on winter cereals, Ultrasil acts as a predictable defensive tool. Its primary advantage over competitors in its class is the balance between its cost-effectiveness and its reliable systemic impact. By choosing this locally manufactured product, growers ensure their crops are shielded from early-season threats, allowing the plant to reach its full potential without the early-stage pressure from harmful fungi.
