Dressing agents in agriculture are used to treat seed material in preparation for sowing. The treatment protects the seeds from the development of fungi and mold. Let's consider the action and composition of the Baritone Super disinfectant, its purpose and use in agriculture. Compatibility of the drug with agricultural products, storage conditions and substitute drugs.
Composition and release form of the product
The Bayer company produces seed protectant in the form of an emulsion concentrate.The drug contains 3 active ingredients: prothioconazole in an amount of 50 g per 1 liter, fludioxonil in an amount of 37.5 g and tebuconazole in an amount of 10 g per 1 liter.

What is it used for and how does it work?
Fungicide "Baritone Super" is used to treat seeds of spring and winter wheat and barley. Controls a complex of fungal diseases that can harm seed material and seedlings.
The drug protects seeds until they germinate, seedlings, and young shoots from pathogens of fungal diseases that are found on the seeds and in the soil. The action continues from the moment of germination until the stage of exit into the tube.
Mechanism of action: prothioconazole disrupts the biosynthesis of styrene and the permeability of pathogen cells. It also helps the formation of seedlings and the root system, enhances bushiness and resistance to drought.
Tebuconazole moves to growth points, disrupts the metabolism of sterols, which results in irreversible damage in fungal cells. The substance is effective against smut pathogens.
Instructions for use of Baritone Super disinfectant
The dosage of fungicide for wheat and barley is the same: 0.8-1 l per ha. Seeds are treated against smut, basal and root rot, mold, and Alternaria. The grain is treated before sowing, using 10 liters of solution per ton of seeds. There is no waiting period. Number of treatments – 1.
Safety precautions
In terms of toxicity to humans, Baritone Super is classified as an agricultural product with hazard class 3. It does not show toxicity to crops if used in recommended dosages. Do not use the fungicide in areas of water bodies and in areas near water sources.

If the condition does not improve or even worsens, consult a doctor immediately.
Compatibility with other substances
"Baritone Super" is allowed to be combined with other grain protectants, growth stimulants and various fertilizers. However, you should always check their interactions before mixing different drugs. To do this, you just need to mix both products, taken in a small volume, in a common container. If there is no reaction, the physical and chemical properties do not change, you can mix the drugs in one solution.

Fungicide "Baritone Super" is a reliable disinfectant for seeds of major grain crops. It is used in agriculture to reduce losses from damage to seeds and seedlings by fungal diseases, the causative agents of which are on the surface of the seeds themselves and in the soil. The active substances of the disinfectant penetrate into wheat and barley seedlings and are distributed throughout the plants as they grow and develop. Protects them from rot of roots and stems, mold and smut. In addition, they improve the physiological state of grains, promote rapid root growth, activate green growth and tillering, which prepares plants for fruiting. The long-term effect of the disinfectant strengthens the plants, helps winter grains withstand the effects of low temperatures, and not die in winter, when the crops remain uncovered by snow.
