Seed protectors in Ukraine

To get a rich harvest, only fertilization is not enough. Regardless of the quality indicators of the soil, pests and pathogens can develop in it. To protect crops and increase the level of germination, farmers decide to buy a seed treater.

What are protectants for?

Protecting plants is just as important as feeding them. The use of protectants reduces yield losses by 50-55%.

Seed protectors for grain crops are made in combination with anti-stress substances that help the grains painlessly endure the sowing process. Crops can be infected with loose smut, snow and typhoid mold, root rot, septoria and other diseases that are fraught with plant death. It is worth buying grain protectors at least once to see the difference and evaluate the effectiveness.

It is better to take preventive measures than to pay later losses for neglect. Potato seed treaters protect tubers from rhizoctoniosis, Colorado potato beetle, wireworm, aphids and other misfortunes. By treating before planting with seed protectants "Prestige" TM Bayer, preparations of TM Syngenta or others, it will be possible to avoid serious problems during the growing season.

Types of protectants

It is not difficult to choose a seed treater if you rely on a conditional classification:

1. By appointment:
   • to combat soil and seed infection (fungicides);
   • from pests of shoots of culture (insecticides);
   • from a complex of soil and ground pests).
2. By the nature of the action:
   • contact-systemic (complex preparations of double action, for the destruction of pathogens in the soil, inside and outside the seeds);
   • contact (for preventive processing of the material, these drugs create a protective shell on the seeds);
   • systemic (create an external protective barrier and exhibit fungicidal properties, disinfecting the seed from the inside).
3. According to the spectrum of action:
   • single-purpose (aimed at combating one specific problem);
   • complex (from various diseases and pests, starting with rot and mold, ending with protection from pecking by birds).

Ways to use protectants

Methods of using protectants depend on the form you have chosen: emulsion, concentrate that dissolves in water, suspension or powder.

The use of drugs is:

1. Wet (careful spraying or soaking in solutions);
2. Semi-dry (light spraying);
3. Dry (powder treatment);
4. Hydrophobization (treatment with a special agent to protect against excessive moisture).

To increase the level of benefit from protectants, we advise you to buy adhesives. This tool enhances the effect and gives more chances for a good harvest.
