The use of herbicides in growing cereals has long been the rule. Field cultivation is carried out to destroy weeds, which leads to increased crop yields. Let's consider the principle of action and purpose of "Amistar Trio" - a fungicide with protective and therapeutic action. Rules of use, composition and consumption rates, compatibility with other drugs.
Composition and release form of the drug
This fungicide contains 3 active ingredients - azoxystrobin in the amount of 100 g per 1 l, cyproconazole (30 g per 1 l) and propiconazole (125 g per 1 l). "Amistar Trio" is a concentrated emulsion. The manufacturer, Syngenta AG, produces the fungicide in 5-liter plastic canisters.
How it works and for what purposes is it needed?
Designed to protect and treat cereal plants from major fungal diseases, especially leaf and ear spot. After using Amistarao, the life cycle of pathogenic fungi and spore germination are disrupted. The product effectively protects crops from diseases, fungicidal and physiological effects are manifested on the leaves and ears. The destruction of pathogens begins 1 hour after spraying. The drug provides a long-term protective effect – up to 1 month.
After treatment, the growing season increases and productivity increases due to improved metabolism of mineral elements. The quality of the grain increases, it turns out larger, more uniform, tastes better due to the absence of mycotoxins, and its color improves.
Consumption rate
Treatment begins when the first signs of disease appear. The consumption rate of the drug is 0.8-1 liters per hectare for spring and winter wheat, barley and winter triticale, for rice - 1-1.5 liters. For 1 hectare you need to spend 300 liters of the drug solution.
Plants are treated during the growing season, from germination to tillering and the end of flowering. If the rules of use and dosage are followed, the drug does not have a negative effect on cultivated plants, and fungi do not become accustomed to it.
Rules for using the fungicide "Amistar Trio"
It is permissible to process wheat and barley 1-2 times a season, rice - 2 times.The waiting period before harvest is 40 days for barley and wheat and 50 for rice. The instructions for use indicate that Amistar Trio provides a preventive and therapeutic effect against fungi that cause leaf and root diseases.

When preparing the solution and processing, you need to work in protective clothing that covers the entire body and thick shoes. You should wear rubber gloves on your hands; you should not touch the fungicide with bare hands. The respiratory organs must be protected by a respirator, which will prevent inhalation of the powder and solution vapors and contact with the mucous membranes of the mouth and nose.

Wash and dry clothes. Pour the remaining fungicide into an area not used for plant growth; they cannot be stored or reused. Wash and dry all parts of the sprayer.
If the solution gets on your skin, wash those parts of your body as well. In case of contact with eyes or mouth, rinse with large volumes of water; in case of poisoning, give water with activated carbon to drink (1 g of sorbent per 1 kg of person’s weight), and after a while induce vomiting. Repeat several times to ensure that the pesticide is removed from the stomach.In case of severe poisoning, consult a doctor. Treatment is symptomatic, there is no antidote.
Compatibility with other tools
As the manufacturer indicates, when preparing solutions it is necessary to check the compatibility of the drugs. Different pesticides may give different reactions when mixed, so before diluting them in a common solution, you need to mix a small amount and check the reaction. If the solution remains clear, there is no sediment, the temperature and color remain the same, then the products are compatible.
How to store it correctly?
Store the fungicide "Amistar Trio" in a dark and unlit place, in closed original packaging, at a temperature from -5 ° C to +35 ° C, away from food, medicine, where the drug cannot be reached by animals and children.

Fungicide "Amistar Trio" from the well-known company "Syngenta" is intended for use only in industrial areas for spraying cereal crops. The drug prevents the development of fungal diseases on the main food crops - wheat, rice and barley. Spraying is carried out during the growing season. The product is highly effective; it protects the plant itself and the ear from fungi.The period of protective action is sufficient to prevent damage from common fungal diseases of cereals, thereby increasing their yield and product quality.
