General Information:

• Trade name: Seltima
• Active ingredient: Pyraclostrobin
• Fungicide class: Group C3 (FRAC) fungicide

Mode of Action: Seltima is a systemic fungicide that inhibits energy production in the fungus. It is a strobilurin fungicide, which means that it works by interfering with the fungus's ability to produce ATP, the energy currency of all cells. Without ATP, the fungus cannot grow and reproduce.

Application: Seltima can be applied to a variety of crops, including rice, wheat, and soybeans. It can be applied pre-emergence or post-emergence, but it is most effective when applied preventatively. Seltima can be applied using a variety of application methods, including ground spraying, aerial spraying, and chemigation.

Precautions:

• Seltima is toxic to fish and other aquatic life. Do not apply Seltima to areas where it may run off into water bodies.
• Seltima can be harmful to non-target plants. Avoid applying Seltima to areas where non-target plants are growing.
• Seltima is a residual fungicide, so it can persist in the soil for several weeks. Do not plant crops that are sensitive to Seltima within 3 to 6 weeks of application.

Always follow the label directions carefully when using Seltima fungicide to ensure safe and effective use.

Additional Information:

• Seltima is a relatively new fungicide, so there is less resistance to it than other fungicides.
• Seltima is a broad-spectrum fungicide, which means that it is effective against a wide range of fungal diseases, including:
  • Rice blast
  • Rice sheath blight
  • Wheat rusts
  • Wheat septoria leaf blotch
  • Soybean rust

Seltima is a valuable tool for farmers and other land managers who need to control fungal diseases in rice, wheat, and soybeans. It is important to use Seltima according to the label directions to ensure safe and effective use.
