In addition to prevention, the product can be used to treat rot, mold, leaf spot, powdery mildew, fomoz and other diseases on plants.

Composition, purpose and release form of the fungicide Derozal

The main active ingredient of Derosal fungicide is cabredazim. It is used to prevent and treat diseases:

• spotting.

The fungicide is available in the form of a concentrate suspension in containers of 1 liter. The cost is 1100 rubles.

How does the drug work?

When processing a plant, the reproductive ability of pathogens slows down, which blocks the possibility of dividing the kernel. The plant absorbs the active element of the fungicide through the root system, and the product spreads upward through the channels.

The substance begins to act 2-4 hours after use. This indicator also depends on the size and age of the plant.

This product is used not only for prevention, but also for the treatment of various crops from the most common diseases. After absorption, the solution remains in the soil for another 5 months, and the effective effect lasts for several weeks and depends on weather conditions.

• complete absence of phototoxicity;
• an extensive list of plants affected by Derosal.

The drug also has disadvantages:
