Instructions for the use of the fungicide Infinito and consumption rates
The German manufacturer of pesticides, Bayer, has prepared an innovative systemic drug Infinito against fungal diseases of the potato. The tool is especially important for farmers who grow crops on an industrial scale. But the instruction on the use of the fungicide "Infinito" advises to use it on personal subsidiary plots, protecting potato crops from damage by late blight.

Composition and form of release of funds
The carbamic acid derivative propamocarb hydrochloride has been used for a long time in the fight against pathogenic microorganisms. No wonder the substance is included in preparations of fungicidal action. In 1 liter of Infinito, 62.5 grams of a representative of the class of carbamates.
The same amount of fluopicolide. It is used for factory preparations of the fungicidal type. The substance is active against fungi of the class Oomycetes.
The concentrate is released in the form of a suspension, where chemical particles are dissolved in water. The suspension does not decompose for a long time, so a mixture is used for spraying vegetable crops. In addition to the main components, the "Infinito" preparation contains up to 10 inert ingredients that provide the viscosity of the concentrate, an electric charge. Due to this, during processing, suspension particles are attracted to the surface of leaves and stems.
The product is packed in 5 liter canisters.
Mechanism of action
The action of the main components is of a contact and systemic nature. Getting on parts of plants, substances cause the death of fungi. The contact action of the fungicide is associated with the suppression of the reproductive functions of pathogens. Therefore, after spraying, the infection of leaves and stems stops.
But "Infinito" acts on pathogens and systemically, penetrating inside in doses safe for the plant. A mixture of contact and systemic fungicides destroys internal and external fungal infections. As a result of the action, microorganisms die both on the surface of plants and inside plant cells.
Carrying out preventive measures leads to an increase in the resistance of vegetable crops to the action of pathogens... The use of a fungicide stimulates the growth of potatoes and tomatoes. Hence the increase in the yield of vegetables.
Advantages of the fungicide "Infinito"
Infinito has:
- a new mechanism of action due to the inclusion of fluopicolide in its composition;
- the property to protect plants from late blight on leaves and stems;
- duration of action;
- the ability to increase yields;
- the ability to protect potato tubers from disease.
The drug is recommended to be used for spraying seed and food plantings for therapeutic and prophylactic purposes.
Protective period
The "Infinito" remedy is valued for the fact that it retains the ability to protect vegetable crops from pathogenic fungi for a long time.
After processing for 1-2 weeks, the plant is protected by the components of the preparation.
Impact speed
Plants are treated with Infinito in the morning or evening. Already after 2-4 hours, substances begin their protective effect on the leaves and stems. Infected plants will die of fungi and spores, stop their spread.
Preparation of working solution
To dilute the suspension, take 5 liters of clean water. Half of the water norm is poured into a special container of the sprayer. There - 15 ml of fungicidal suspension, stirring thoroughly. Then add the rest of the water. The concentrate particles must completely dissolve. For 20 ml "Infinito" take 6 liters of water. Enough of this amount of working solution per one hundred square meters of the area of the garden.
Instructions for use and consumption
The drug is used to prevent the appearance of fungal infections, spraying 2 times per season:
- For potatoes, the consumption of working fluid is 1.6 liters per hectare of planting. Spray the drug after flowering culture twice with a break of 10-15 days. Last time 2 weeks before harvesting tubers.
- Tomatoes are sprayed 2 weeks after planting in open ground. The processing frequency is the same as for potatoes.
- For cucumbers, the drug will help resist rot during the growing season. Enough 15 ml of suspension for two processing.
- 40 days before harvesting cabbage heads, it is necessary to carry out the last spraying of the vegetable beds.
For farmers, the consumption of working solution will be 400 liters per hectare.
Precautions
Fungicide "Infinito" refers to toxic drugs. It is necessary to protect children and animals from contact with the agrochemical. It is necessary to prepare the spray solution in a special container. When using the product, you must:
- protect the skin, mucous membranes from liquid ingress;
- apply the entire product at once, without leaving excess in accessible places;
- do not pour the remaining liquid on the ground or into water, but dispose of;
- do not engage in food intake, exclude smoking and drinking.
They try to carry out the treatment with Infinito in the morning or in the evening in calm, windless weather. Do not use the drug in areas close to the apiary, places where nectar is collected by bees, or reservoirs.
After processing, wash your hands and face thoroughly with soap. You can treat open areas of the body with a solution of ammonia, chlorhexidine. The mouth is rinsed, the mucous membranes are washed with water. When chemicals get inside, they take activated charcoal, cleanse the stomach by inducing a gag reflex.
Toxicity degree
Fungicide "Infinito" carries a moderate danger to humans and animals. Bees can be poisoned by toxic substances if they used the drug without observing the norm. Once in the soil, agrochemicals do not decompose for a long time, they are removed only after 15-20 days. Therefore, it is necessary, after the excess of the fungicide gets into the ground, to take measures to disinfect the soil. For this, the area is spilled with water and soap or soda (200 grams per bucket) and dug up.
Compatibility with other fungicides and drug toxicity
Infinito fungicide can be used with other systemic or contact drugs. But before that, the compatibility of the tool is determined.In case of precipitation, an increase in the temperature of the working solution of the mixture, it is necessary to abandon its use in the fight against fungal infections of plants in the garden.
How to store it correctly
Storage of the drug "Infinito" is carried out in utility rooms outside the house, in an inaccessible place. The container must be tightly closed. The suspension is stored for 3 years. The storage temperature should not fall below 15 degrees in the cold season and rise above 35 degrees in summer.
Similar means
To avoid resistance to the components of the fungicidal preparation, it is replaced with analogues. Among the means possessing similar actions, the concentrated suspension "Consento" is noted. It is based on propamocarb hydrochloride and substances that have a destructive systemic effect on pathogens and a protective one on vegetable crops.
Cope with pathogenic fungi and other preparations based on carbamates, such as "Quadris", "Acrobat".
