Raiok EC is a systemic fungicide produced by Avgust, designed to protect agricultural crops from a wide range of fungal diseases. It contains a powerful, fast-acting active ingredient that ensures effective control of pathogens affecting both field and horticultural crops.
Active Ingredient
- Cyproconazole: 250 g/L
Cyproconazole is a systemic fungicide from the triazole class that inhibits ergosterol biosynthesis, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, effectively preventing their development.
Protected Crops
- Winter wheat
- Barley
- Rye
- Rapeseed
- Apples
- Grapes
- Tomatoes
- Potatoes
Diseases Controlled
Cereals (wheat, barley, rye):
- Brown rust (Puccinia recondita)
- Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis)
- Septoria leaf blotch (Septoria tritici)
Rapeseed:
- Sclerotinia stem rot (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum)
- Powdery mildew (Erysiphe cruciferarum)
Apples/Grapes:
- Apple scab (Venturia inaequalis)
- Downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola)
Potatoes:
- Late blight (Phytophthora infestans)
Tomatoes:
- Powdery mildew (Oidium lycopersici)
Mode of Action
- Systemic: Rapid absorption and transport through the plant’s vascular system provide long-lasting protection.
- Prevention and Treatment: Raiok EC prevents fungal infections and controls existing diseases, acting quickly on spores and infections.
- Long-Lasting Efficiency: Offers extended protection, preventing reinfections over time.
Dosage and Application
- Recommended Rates:
- Wheat/Barley/Rye: 0.4–0.5 L/ha
- Rapeseed: 0.5 L/ha
- Apples/Grapes: 0.5–0.75 L/ha
- Potatoes/Tomatoes: 0.3–0.5 L/ha
- Water Volume: 200–400 L/ha
- Application Timing:
- Cereals: Apply at the first sign of symptoms or preventively at the early flowering stage.
- Rapeseed: Apply preventively before flowering or at the first sign of disease.
- Apples/Grapes: Apply at the start of summer and before harvest to control fungal diseases.
- Potatoes/Tomatoes: Apply at the first signs of disease, with intervals of 10–14 days.
Advantages
- Systemic Action: Protects plants from the inside, preventing long-term fungal infections.
- Broad Spectrum Control: Effective against a wide range of common fungal diseases.
- Safety: Safe for treated crops when used according to guidelines.
- Prevention and Treatment: Suitable for both preventative measures and controlling existing diseases.
Safety Recommendations
- Apply in calm weather, avoiding strong winds.
- Use appropriate protective equipment (gloves, goggles, dust mask).
- Observe safety intervals and pre-harvest intervals for each crop.
- Avoid overuse to minimize the risk of fungi developing resistance to the active ingredient.
Raiok EC is a reliable fungicide that provides lasting protection against common fungal diseases, helping maintain plant health and ensuring high-quality yields.
