Jockey Extra

Professional crop protection: The role of «Jockey Extra»

For modern wheat cultivation, crop protection is not just an option; it is a vital part of yield management. «Jockey Extra» by «Khimagromarketing» is a systemic fungicide engineered to provide robust coverage against key fungal threats. By integrating Azoxystrobin (a strobilurin) and Cyproconazole (a triazole), this product offers both curative and preventive action, ensuring the crop remains healthy through its most vulnerable growth stages.

Application scenarios in the field

Agronomists choose this fungicide when fields face heavy pressure from foliar and stem diseases. It is specifically designed to tackle:

• Septoria and Helminthosporium: Preventing early leaf drop and loss of green surface area.
• Powdery Mildew: Controlling outbreaks in dense stands.
• Fusarium and Eyespot (Cercosporella): Protecting both the stems and the ear, which is essential for yield quality.

The optimal window for application is during the stem elongation phase up to the flag leaf stage. By protecting these upper leaves, «Jockey Extra» directly supports the plant’s photosynthesis, resulting in better grain filling and higher test weight.

Performance and practical use

The formulation (Suspension Concentrate) allows for excellent integration into existing tank mixes. With a recommended dose range of 0.5 to 1.0 liters per hectare and the flexibility of up to two applications per season, farmers can adapt their spraying strategy to match the actual disease pressure on-site. The systemic nature of the product ensures rapid uptake into the plant tissues, providing reliable protection against pathogens, regardless of minor variations in application precision.
