Modesto Plus 510FS

Protecting the Start: Modesto Plus 510FS

The success of rapeseed and sunflower cultivation is determined at the sowing stage. The insecto-fungicidal seed treatment Modesto Plus 510FS is a technological solution that serves as an "insurance policy" for seeds in the soil and during the early stages of crop development. The product is the result of collaboration between leading chemical companies, including Bayer AG, ensuring high production standards and predictable results.

Spectrum of Action and Composition

The uniqueness of the product lies in its combination of powerful active ingredients: a systemic insecticide of the neonicotinoid class (clothianidin) and two fungicidal components — fluopicolide and fluoxastrobin. This combination allows for the control of a wide range of threats:

• Soil pests: wireworms.
• Surface pests: cruciferous flea beetles, weevils.
• Pathogens: alternaria, downy mildew (peronosporosis), phoma.

The dual mechanism of action — both systemic and contact — provides comprehensive protection of the seed and seedling against insect damage and fungal infection development, which are critical risks during the emergence period.

Application Details

Modesto Plus 510FS is formulated as an emulsion for seed treatment, ensuring uniform coverage and high adhesion. With a consumption rate of 10–12 liters per ton of seeds, the preparation shows high efficiency even with minimal soil moisture. It is important to note that the product belongs to the second hazard class; therefore, it requires strict adherence to safety measures and regulations — only one application before sowing is permitted.

The status of this product as one of the most balanced seed treatments makes it an essential choice for agronomists aiming for uniform emergence and healthy yield potential right from the beginning of the vegetative period.
