Proguard T Seed Treatment is a versatile seed treatment that provides comprehensive protection against a wide range of fungal diseases in various crops, including cereals, corn, soybeans, and sunflowers. It helps to ensure healthy seedling development and promotes strong root systems, leading to increased yields and improved crop quality.

How Proguard T Works

Proguard T contains a unique combination of active ingredients that work synergistically to combat a broad spectrum of fungal diseases. The active ingredients are thiabendazole, fludioxonil, and flutriafol, which belong to different chemical classes, providing effective resistance management.

Benefits of Proguard T Seed Treatment

  • Reduced seedling mortality and enhanced plant vigor: Proguard T protects young seedlings from fungal diseases that can cause damping off, root rot, and seedling blight, leading to healthier and more vigorous plants.

  • Improved germination and establishment: By safeguarding seedlings from fungal pathogens, Proguard T ensures better germination rates and early establishment, laying the foundation for a successful crop cycle.

  • Enhanced yield potential: Healthy and well-established seedlings are more resilient to stress conditions and can more efficiently capture sunlight and nutrients, leading to increased crop yields.

  • Reduced reliance on foliar fungicides: Proguard T's long-lasting protection can minimize the need for foliar fungicide applications, saving time and resources while reducing environmental impact.

Application and Safety

Proguard T is typically applied to seed before planting, ensuring that the protective agents are incorporated into the seed coat. It is important to read and follow the label instructions carefully for specific application rates and timings based on the crop and growing conditions.

Proguard T is considered safe when used according to the label instructions. However, it is essential to wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during handling and application, including gloves, goggles, and protective clothing.

Overall, Proguard T Seed Treatment is a valuable tool for protecting crops from a wide range of fungal diseases and promoting healthy seedling development. Its comprehensive protection, reduced reliance on foliar fungicides, and positive impact on crop yields make it a key component in sustainable agricultural practices.
