Advanced strobilurin disease control
This package contains Sovran fungicide, a 50% water-dispersible granule (WG). The active ingredient in Sovran fungicide belongs to a new class of fungicides, the strobilurins. Strobilurins are synthetic derivatives of a natural antifungal substance. Sovran fungicide has a new mode of action and is effective against pathogens resistant to other fungicides.
Benefits of Sovran :
- ✅ Effective on grapes: Controls powdery mildew, downy mildew, and black rot.
- ✅ Long-lasting activity: High specific activity, low vapour pressure, and good rainfastness provide strong residual control.
- ✅ Apple and pear protection: Controls apple/pear scab and powdery mildew.
- ✅ Flexible timing: Can be applied pre- or post-infection for optimum disease management in rotation programs.
Application and disease management strategy
Sovran fungicide has a protective effect because it inhibits spore germination and a curative-eradicative effect due to the inhibition of mycelial growth and sporulation of the fungus on the leaf surface. Sovran therefore be applied in either preor post-infection situations. However, optimum disease control is achieved when Sovran fungicide is applied in a regularly scheduled protective spray program and is used in rotation program with other fungicides.
