“Profi Super” is a contact-systemic fungicide, used mainly to suppress pathogens of rust and spotting of grain crops. This drug is also used to protect beets (sugar) from the most dangerous fungal diseases (powdery mildew). The fungicidal agent is recommended to be used for prevention, that is, before signs of damage appear.
Composition and dosage form
The fungicidal agent "Profi Super" is used for preventive treatment, treatment, protection of grain crops and beets (sugar) from the most dangerous fungal diseases. Suppresses pathogens of various types of rust, spotting, and powdery mildew.
The fungicidal drug consists of two active chemical components: propiconazole (250 grams per liter) and cyproconazole (80 grams per liter). The combined use of these substances accelerates the effect on fungi and their spores that parasitize plants. The active components are not dangerous for grain crops in the early stages and can be used for preventive purposes.
Advantages of "Profi Super":
- suppresses the growth and development of dangerous fungi;
- penetrates inside the plants in 15-35 minutes and thereby reduces the risk of the drug being washed off by rain;
- protective properties last 45 days or more;
- One preventive treatment is enough for the season;
- used to treat already diseased crops;
- effective at any stage of fungal infection;
- improves plant development.
How the drug works
Mechanism of action of the active components of “Profi Super”:
- Propiconazole. It droops inside the crops, but does not move from leaf to ear. A fungicidal substance acts on fungi and their spores. Inhibits the processes of ergosterol biosynthesis. Stops the growth of mycelium. Inhibits sporulation. At the same time, it enhances the processes of photosyntheases in the leaves of crops and improves the development of grain crops.
- Cyproconazole.It is sorbed by the roots and leaves of crops and moves along them. Suppresses the development of pathogens of fungal diseases. Begins to act after 15-35 minutes. after processing. Inhibits the biosynthesis of sterols in fungal cells.
Purposes of use
Used for preventive treatment of grains. Used against all types of rust (yellow or brown, crown, dwarf, stem). Protects against various spots (dark brown or net, red-brown, striped). The drug is used against pathogens of septoria leaf and ear blight, pyrenophora blight, and rhynchosporium blight. The fungicidal agent can be used on beets (sugar) for the prevention of phomosis, powdery mildew, and cercospora.

Preparation of working solution
When industrially growing crops, fields are processed using a mechanized sprayer. For irrigation, a tank mixture is prepared, consisting of several compatible preparations. "Profi Super" can be used in conjunction with most liquid fertilizers, acaricides, insecticides, and growth regulators.
First, fill the tank ¼ or ½ full with water and turn on the mixer. Add all components of the tank mixture, including Profi Super, observing the order. The pre-required dose of fungicide for irrigation is diluted with water in a separate container (plastic container), and then the dissolved drug is poured into the tank. After adding all components, the water level is adjusted to normal. After filling the entire tank, the mixture is mixed well and immediately used to spray the field.
Instructions for use of fungicide
A mixture of various drugs is used as directed on the day of preparation. It is recommended to spray fields at air temperatures from +12 to +25 degrees Celsius, air humidity - 70-80 percent, wind speed - no more than 5-6 meters per second. It is forbidden to process grains in rain, fog and dew. Spraying is carried out with the mixer turned on so that the mixture has a uniform concentration.
Safety precautions when working with “Profi Super”
It is recommended to prepare a tank mixture and spray the working solution across the field wearing a respirator, safety glasses, rubber boots and gloves, and special overalls. It is forbidden to inhale fungicide vapors or taste it.In case of poisoning (the solution gets into the stomach), it is recommended to take several tablets of activated carbon, drink 1 liter of clean water, induce vomiting and seek help from medical professionals.
Storage conditions
The emulsion concentrate in the original container with a closed lid can be stored until the expiration date in a non-residential warehouse at room temperature. The date of manufacture of the drug is indicated on the label. The shelf life is two years. It is forbidden to keep the fungicide in the cold, in the rain, in direct sunlight, or with food.
