“Alcor Super” is understood as a combination product that has a systemic effect. It provides protection for cereals and sugar beets. In addition, the composition helps to significantly increase yield parameters. For the use of the substance to be effective, it is important to strictly follow the instructions. Compliance with safety measures is of no small importance.
Composition and release form of Alcor Super
This fungicidal agent includes 2 active components at once. These include propiconazole and cyproconazole.The substance is released in the form of an emulsion concentrate.
The principle of action of the drug
The product is highly effective. It is due to the presence of 2 active components:
- Propiconazole – helps suppress the production of ergosterol. This substance leads to inhibition of spore formation. Under the influence of the active component, fungi stop their development within 2 days after spore germination. Propiconazole is more toxic to the vegetative organs of fungi. Products based on the substance have a stimulating effect on the development and growth of crops. They activate photosynthesis processes in the foliage of winter wheat.
- Cyproconazole – inhibits the biosynthesis of sterols in fungal cells. Ergosterol also falls into this category. The composition has a wider scope of application. This is due to its physicochemical characteristics. Also, the range of use of the composition is explained by the characteristics of absorption and movement in the structure of crops.
