Attention! Attention! Verben® – a new broad-spectrum fungicide for perfect disease control in cereal crops

The fungicide Verben® contains two active substances, proven in practice for the control of economically important diseases in cereal crops, such as powdery mildew, leaf and ear septoria, brown rust, yellow rust, helminthosporiosis, fusarium head blight, crown and stem base rot, leaf spots, net blotch and ramularia. The excellent synergism of the two active substances ensures superior disease control and helps to achieve the yield potential. The unique combination of the active substances increases the efficacy of Verben®, thereby achieving significantly improved control of the most economically important diseases compared to the solo application of prothioconazole.

Verben® is distinguished by the following practical advantages:

• Vapour phase acting as a shield, protecting both treated and untreated tissues.
• Enhances the immune response of the crop
• Stops the viability of spores, thus preventing the cycle of re-infection upwards in the plant
• Directly inhibits the development of germinating spores and infection
• Has strong preventive, stopping and curative activity

The application rate of Verben® is extremely flexible depending on the timing of application, as follows: T1 - 75 ml/da; T2 - 90 ml/da; T3 - 100 ml/da, with a spray volume of 15-40 l/da

Practical advantages:

→ A new reliable fungicidal solution for the control of the most important diseases in cereal crops with contact, protective, systemic and translaminar activity

→ Combination of two highly effective active substances with complementary activity (prothioconazole from the triazole group with fully systemic activity and proquinazid from the quinoline group with locally systemic activity)

→ Different modes of action of the two active substances, contributing to an even better effect against pathogens

→ Suitable for disease control in T1, T2 and T3 treatments, providing flexibility of application

→ Improved formulation for rapid absorption and translocation to all parts of the treated plants

→ Reliable and consistent performance under various application conditions

→ Excellent rainfastness after application

→ Helps to increase the yield potential of the treated crops through

reliable disease control

→ Compatible with other plant protection products (herbicides, insecticides, etc.)

→ Possesses a vapour phase which also protects the untreated parts of the crop

→ A perfect fungicide in the Corteva Agriscience™ disease control programme,

together with the other products of the company (Univoq®, Inovor®)

→ The three fungicides have non-overlapping active substances and different combinations in terms of mode of action and chemical groups – a reliable “weapon” against potential pathogen resistance.
