Presteron

Comprehensive Potato Protection from the Start

For a potato grower, the pre-planting phase is the most critical time for crop security. "Prestitron" from F.Superus Co., Ltd. addresses plant protection challenges before the first sprouts even emerge. Thanks to its systemic mode of action, this seed treatment creates a protective shield around the tuber, blocking the development of diseases and repelling pests during the vital period of root system formation.

A Dual Action: Fungicide Meets Insecticide

The product combines two active ingredients: Pencycuron and Imidacloprid. This formulation allows farmers to solve several problems in a single operation:

• Soil Pathogen Control: Effectively suppresses Rhizoctonia and various types of scab, which often lead to crop rejection during storage or sale.
• Pest Eradication: The product forms a barrier against wireworms that damage tubers, while also eliminating Colorado potato beetles, aphids, leafhoppers, and flea beetles as soon as they begin feeding on young plants.

Practical Application Insights

"Prestitron" is supplied as a suspension concentrate. The product is highly effective for mechanical planting: it evenly coats the tuber, creating a stable film. Its systemic action ensures the redistribution of active ingredients from the seed tuber to the foliage, keeping the young green parts protected against insects for several weeks after germination.

Using this product significantly reduces the need for foliar spraying during the growing season. This not only saves on labor, fuel, and additional chemicals but also minimizes the pesticide load on the field. Classified as hazard class 3, "Prestitron" requires standard safety precautions, but when handled correctly, it remains an essential and efficient tool in a farmer's arsenal.
