Instructions for use and composition of the fungicide Comfort, dosage of KS and analogues

For several millennia, humanity cannot imagine a single day of life without products made from grain crops and sugar beets. But environmental changes, to which microorganisms adapt tens of times faster than plants, especially cultivated ones, make farming increasingly risky. Fungicides and bacterial plant protection products, such as the drug “Comfort,” come to the rescue.

Composition and release form of the systemic fungicide "Comfort"

The drug is offered to the consumer in the form of a concentrated suspension. Active ingredient: carbendazim vxadded to its composition in a volume of 500 g/l. The liquid is packaged in 5-liter cans.

Mechanism of action and period of protective action

The systemic fungicide “Comfort” is introduced into the tissue of the crop it controls within 24 hours, without causing harm to it. There it spreads throughout the entire plant, having a detrimental effect on microorganisms that have already taken root or are just trying to initiate harmful activities.

This quickly leads to the death or degeneration of pathogenic organisms. After a single treatment of crops, the protective effect of the “Comfort” fungicide lasts for a month.

Scope of application

The active substance carbendazim is used for the prevention and treatment of diseases of grain and industrial crops. Fungicide "Comfort" shows excellent results when treating seeds and when treating above-ground parts of plants.

Consumption rate

The volume of working fluid depends on the growth phase of a particular crop and the mass of its vegetative organs.

How to use this drug correctly

Spraying with fungicide “Comfort”, KS is not difficult. Its spraying is also permitted by aviation.The peculiarity is the preparation of the working fluid from a substance that is virtually insoluble in water. This is done this way:

1. Half the amount of water is poured into the tank.
2. The dose of the “Comfort” fungicide is measured and, with the mixer turned on, introduced into the first container.
3. Everything is kneaded for 7-10 minutes.
4. Water is added to the final volume of the working solution.
5. Stirring lasts 5 minutes.
6. Immediately begin spraying, without stopping stirring the contents of the tank.

Treating seeds with “Comfort” is a more complex process. The best option is treatment with moisture. Instructions for using the “Comfort” fungicide for dressing:

1. The grain must be cleaned, calibrated, and tested for germination energy.
2. The barley's awns are removed.
3. Grains with a moisture content above 15% are treated 2-3 days before sowing. They especially need fungicide treatment, since an increase in the temperature of the seed with high humidity creates an environment conducive to the activation of fungi.
4. Dry grain can be pickled 3-6 months before use.
5. Working fluid with “Comfort” is used to moisten the surface of the prepared grain.

Safety precautions for use

It is preferable to spray the “Comfort” fungicide in calm weather or to enter (drive in) from the leeward side. Personal protective equipment should consist of:

If Comfort gets on the mucous membranes, wash the skin with soap and water.

After spraying the crops or processing the grain, the dishes and area where the solution was prepared are treated with water and soda ash. Overalls are kept in a designated place.

Resistance

Pathogenic microorganisms develop immunity against the action of carbendazole. In order to prevent mutation of the opportunistic functions of the fungus in the treated area in favor of its survival under the conditions of use of the drug, it is necessary to use this active substance no more than 2 times in a row.

Compatibility of fungicide "Comfort"

The drug should not be mixed with alkalis, as it reacts with them. It is possible to combine it in working solutions with many liquid fertilizers, growth activators, and other stimulating agents.
