Next-generation systemic fungicide for the control of powdery mildew and brown rot in apple orchards
Active Ingredients
- Fluopyram – 100 g/L
- Pyraclostrobin – 200 g/L
Formulation
SC (Suspension Concentrate)
Manufacturer
Pilarquim (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., China
Mode of Action
PILARLUNA® SC is a next-generation systemic fungicide developed for the strategic control of powdery mildew and brown rot in apples.
The combination of fluopyram (SDHI – Succinate Dehydrogenase Inhibitor) and pyraclostrobin (QoI strobilurin) provides complementary activity, delivering both curative and long-lasting preventive protection.
Fluopyram rapidly penetrates plant tissues and inhibits fungal mycelial development, while pyraclostrobin prevents spore germination and the establishment of new infections.
Product Benefits
SDHI + Strobilurin synergy
Combines two different modes of action for superior control of powdery mildew (Podosphaera leucotricha) while supporting resistance management.
Curative and preventive activity
Controls existing infections and protects against future disease development.
Improved fruit quality
Produces cleaner, more uniform fruit with enhanced post-harvest storage performance.
AgCelence® physiological effect
Pyraclostrobin enhances plant physiological processes, maintaining green, healthy foliage and improving stress tolerance.
Excellent crop safety
Highly selective for apple trees and non-phytotoxic when used according to label recommendations.
Registered Crop
