The fungicide Verben® from Corteva Agriscience is a highly effective solution for protecting cereal crops, providing exceptional control over economically significant diseases, including various types of rot – a problem that often leads to serious yield losses.
Mode of Action – Dual Power, Maximum Security
Verben® combines two active substances with completely different modes of action – Proquinazid and Prothioconazole. This synergy guarantees both prevention and strong curative action in the presence of infection.
Vapor Phase – The Key to Rot Control
Proquinazid is an active substance with a proven vapor phase, meaning that after application the product:
- Protects even the untreated parts of the plants
- Stops the rapid spread of the pathogen
- Reactivates after rainfall, ensuring long-lasting action
This characteristic is particularly important in the fight against root rots and fusarium, where quickly limiting the infection is critical.
Enhanced Immune Resistance
Proquinazid also has a physiological effect, supporting the plant's natural defense mechanisms – an advantage that allows the crop to overcome stress factors and recover more quickly.
Practical Advantages That Make the Difference
- Preventive, Stopping, and Curative Action
Verben® is a reliable choice both for early symptoms and for already visible disease development. - High Rainfastness
Thanks to rapid drying and excellent formulation, the product is resistant to variable weather. - Depot Formation
The waxy cuticle creates a reservoir of active substance, ensuring prolonged and uniform action.
Controlled Diseases
Verben® provides excellent protection against:
- Types of rot in cereal crops
- Powdery mildew
- Septoria leaf and glume blotch
- Brown and yellow rust
- Leaf spots (Drechslera)
- Net blotch

- Fusarium head blight
Application Timing and Recommended Dosages
Dosage flexibility allows adaptation to different crop stages and disease pressure:
- T1: 60 ml/decare
- T2: 75 ml/decare
- T3: 90 ml/decare
Verben® is compatible with herbicides and insecticides and is suitable for inclusion in comprehensive plant protection programs.
Conclusion
Verben® is the reliable partner for farmers in the fight against the most important diseases in cereal crops.
With a fully innovative formulation, vapor phase, proven efficacy against rots, and long-lasting protection, the product guarantees peace of mind, security, and maximum yield potential.
