Sercadis provides exceptional levels of disease control and flexible application timing in apples, pears, onions and winter squash. Increasingly recognised as the new top fungicide in pipfruit, Sercadis is now set to become the first-choice solution for white rot in onions and powdery mildew in winter squash.

The novel chemistry of Sercadis achieves effective control using less active ingredient per hectare than competitor products. It is the only black spot treatment

Sercadis contains the top SDHI (Succinate Dehydrogenase Inhibitor) innovation, Xemium. Xemium acts by disrupting the energy supply of phytopathogenic fungi. More specifically, Xemium disrupts the normal function of succinate Dehydrogenase, also known as Complex II of the fungal mitochondrial respiratory chain. Xemium has two energetically favoured conformations with different polarity properties

Sercadis delivers to you outstanding efficacy at very low dose rates due to the high intrinsic activity of Xemium. To control diseases effectively, Xemium must reach its target in the phytopathogenic fungus as quickly as possible.

The application window for Sercadis runs from pre-flowing through fruit development to just before harvest. The robust nature of the product combines long-lasting disease control with physiological benefits for quality top fruit. On both small and large leaves, Sercadis promotes leaf appearance and ability to function in the most effective way. Both scab and mildew are controlled, resulting in attractive and quality top fruit.

Sercadis is invisible on the plant and delivers strong and long lasting protection along with excellent direct surface protection with unique re-distribution for exceptionally long protection periods.
