Crops are prone to fungal diseases that spread at high humidity and air temperature. To protect plantings from diseases, the drug Prozaro is used. The fungicide prevents the development of diseases and increases the immune properties of plants.
Features of the fungicide
The drug Prozaro has a systemic effect. Its components penetrate into the vascular system of plants and destroy pathogenic cells.
The fungicide has a complex effect: it protects crops from the spread of diseases, relieves them of infections and stimulates plant immunity.
After treatment, the effect of using the solution remains for 2-5 weeks. The period of action depends on climatic conditions and the degree of infection of plants.
Prozaro contains two active ingredients: tebuconazole and prothioconazole. The content of each component is 125 g/l.
The fungicide Prosaro Quantum has a pronounced protective effect. 1 liter of the drug contains 80 g of tebuconazole and 160 g of prothioconazole. The fungicide Prosaro Quantum is used to treat wheat and rapeseed.
The active substances belong to triazoles, but they have different rates of penetration into plant cells. As a result, Prozaro provides both long-term protection and a good therapeutic effect.
Tebuconazole is a substance that can penetrate plant tissues and destroy pathogenic cells. The component acts against any kind of rust, which crops are susceptible to.
Prothioconazole has healing and protective properties. After penetration into plant cells, the substance has a positive effect on the development of crops. The component spreads through plant tissues more slowly, which provides long-term protection.
Thanks to prothioconazole, a developed root system is formed in plants, bushiness and crop quality increase. Cultures better absorb nutrients and tolerate drought.
Prozaro is marketed by the German company Bayer. The fungicide is in the form of a liquid emulsion packaged in 5 liter plastic canisters.

The order of application
The drug Prozaro is used in the required concentration. To prepare the solution, enamel or plastic dishes are required.
The emulsion is first diluted in a small volume of water. Then add the remaining amount of liquid. Plants are processed leaf by hand or using special equipment.
Wheat
Spring and winter wheat are prone to ear fusarium. The disease has a fungal nature and leads to a loss of up to 20% of the crop.
With Fusarium, the harvested grain is of poor quality and contains mycotoxins. Such a product is not acceptable for processing, including as animal feed.
Fusarium spreads during the flowering period. Therefore, preventive treatments are carried out precisely during this period, when the first visible anthers appear on the ear.
In accordance with the instructions for use for the Prozaro fungicide, 1 liter of emulsion is taken per 1 ha of plantings. The consumption of the prepared solution is 300 liters per 1 ha.
Prozaro is also used to protect wheat against powdery mildew, rust and dark brown spotting. The norm of the drug per 1 ha is set at 0,6-0,8 liters. For spraying this area, 200 liters of solution are required. Processing is carried out at the beginning of earing of wheat.
Barley
Barley needs protection from powdery mildew, spotting, rust and rhynchosporia. Prozaro fungicide treatment is performed at the beginning of the heading of the crop. 1-2 procedures are required per season. Repeated spraying is carried out 30 days after the first procedure.
A solution of the Prozaro fungicide is prepared according to the instructions for use: from 1 to 0,6 liters of suspension is taken per 0,8 ha of plantings. 200 liters of the prepared solution is enough to treat 1 ha.
Rape
A serious danger to rapeseed is represented by fungal diseases phomosis and altrenariosis. The lesion covers both young and adult plants. The spread of diseases is provoked by harmful fungi.
According to the instructions, Prozaro fungicide treatment is started if there are signs of diseases – dark spots on the stems and leaves. Spraying is repeated after 10-14 days.
From 1 to 0,6 l of suspension is enough for 0,8 ha. The norm of the working solution for the specified area is 250 liters.
Corn
Corn plantations can be seriously affected by root rot, fusarium, cob mold, blister smut. Affected plants lag behind in development, in the absence of therapeutic measures, they die.
To protect the plantations, a Prozaro fungicide solution is prepared. According to the instructions, 1 ml of suspension is needed for 100 weave. The flow rate of the obtained liquid for spraying a given area should not exceed 300-400 liters.
Spraying is carried out once during the flowering period for prevention or in the presence of the first symptoms of diseases. It is recommended to use Prozaro fungicide together with insecticides.
Safety measures
The drug Prozaro has hazard class 2 for humans and class 3 for bees. When interacting with the solution, adhere to safety rules.
Before starting work, put on rubber gloves and a respirator. The solution is used within a day after preparation. At the time of processing, animals and people without protective equipment are removed from the site. Spraying is carried out at a distance from water bodies.
Spraying is carried out in dry cloudy weather. It is allowed to choose the morning or evening period.
If the solution gets inside, you need to drink several glasses of clean water and activated charcoal in the amount of 1 g per 1 kg of body weight. Be sure to see a doctor.
Prozaro should be stored in a dry place out of the reach of animals and children. Storage period – no more than 2 years from the date of production.

Conclusion
The drug Prozaro has a complex effect on plants. Its components penetrate into plant tissues and neutralize the cells of a harmful fungus. As a result, crops become more resistant to infections, drought and weather conditions.
The fungicide is suitable for the prevention of diseases, and also successfully copes with lesions on plants. When working with the drug, observe safety rules. The working solution stays on the leaves and shoots for a long time, which reduces the number of treatments.
