Steady delivery

long-lasting protection and sustained curative activity/greening* effects

Once on the leaf surface, activator adjuvants in the leafshield formulation swell the waxy protective barrier on the leaf surface and allow bixafen and prothioconazole to quickly get into the leaf for rapid knock-down of established disease. Other components then help maintain the weatherproof surface reserviour of bixafen and prothioconazole which slowly drip-feed into the plant for long-lasting disease control and crop greening* benefits. Leafshield also synchronises uptake and movement of both active substances which is important for effective resistance management.
