Korund

Comprehensive Potato Protection: From Seed Tubers to Emergence

"Korund" is a systemic seed treatment agent designed to solve the primary challenges of potato protection during the early stages of plant development. Its main goal is to provide a powerful "starter pack" for tubers, preventing yield losses from soil pests and diseases during the critical germination period.

Why choose this specific combination of active ingredients?

The product contains thiabendazole, acetamiprid, and imidacloprid. This combination allows for a dual-action approach:

• Fungicidal Protection: Thiabendazole effectively curbs the development of Rhizoctonia, Phoma, and various types of scab, which often trigger rot and weaken emerging plants.
• Insecticidal Strength: The combination of acetamiprid and imidacloprid blocks the activity of wireworms and protects young shoots from Colorado potato beetles, aphids, thrips, and leafhoppers.

The systemic nature of the product means that active components are evenly distributed throughout the plant as it grows, providing a long-lasting effect. This saves farmers from the need for early foliar spraying, conserving resources during peak work periods.

Practical Application Tips

"Korund" is formulated as a suspension concentrate. For maximum effectiveness, a single treatment of the seed material before planting is sufficient. The application rate is 10–20 ml per 100 kg of potatoes (in accordance with specific working solution dilutions). Given its Hazard Class 3, standard safety measures must be followed, including the use of personal protective equipment. Due to its specific formulation, the product adheres well to the tuber surface and does not flake off after the solution has dried.
