Instructions for use of Amistar Trio, fungicide dosage, and analogues

Amistar Trio is an effective fungicide with a comprehensive composition. It has a systemic effect and helps protect cereal crops and rice from a range of diseases affecting leaves and ears. The composition has both preventative and therapeutic properties. For best results, the fungicide should be applied at the early stages of disease development.

What is included in the composition and existing forms of release

This product has a complex composition and includes three active ingredients. One liter of the product contains the following substances:

• 100 grams of azoxystrobin;
• 125 grams of propiconazole;
• 30 grams of cyproconazole.

The product belongs to the group of contact pesticides and is available as an emulsifiable concentrate. It is sold in 5-liter canisters.

Mechanism of action and purpose

The effectiveness of the product is due to the combination of three active components, which differ in their mechanism of action on fungi:

1. Azoxystrobin has a long-lasting protective effect. It has a positive effect on young crops, increases nitrogen levels by inactivating nitrate reductase, reduces water consumption, and regulates stomatal closure and carbon dioxide assimilation. This is especially important during dry weather.
2. Propiconazole has therapeutic and prophylactic properties. It suppresses spore formation in pathogens. Its gas phase reduces the growth of powdery mildew fungi. It also exhibits a growth-regulating effect, improving carbon dioxide uptake by crops and increasing photosynthesis.
3. Cyproconazole inhibits sterol production in fungal cells. This medication has a broad spectrum of activity due to its physicochemical properties.

The drug has a whole range of advantages:

• rapid initial action;
• destruction of pathogens outside and inside plants;
• increasing the stress resistance of crops during drought, temperature fluctuations and under the influence of other unfavorable factors;
• rapid absorption;
• positive impact on the physiological state of crops;
• increasing the efficiency of water use by plants;
• optimization of nitrogen metabolism;
• increasing the level of gluten and preventing the formation of mycotoxins in grains;
• increase in grain weight;
• increasing rice yield;
• absence of phytotoxicity;
• absence of resistance development;
• compatibility with other substances in tank mixtures.

Calculation of consumption

The dosage and rules for using the substance are given in the table:

Standard of use of the product	Cultivated plant	Pathologies	Features and processing period	Waiting period (number of treatments)
0.8-1	Spring and winter wheat	Brown, stem and yellow rust, pyrenophorosis, septoria, powdery mildew	It is recommended to spray plants during the growing season. 300 liters of working solution are required per hectare.	40 (1-2)
1	Spring and winter wheat	Head blight and fusarium	Treatment should be carried out at the end of earing or at the beginning of flowering. Apply 300 liters of working solution per hectare.	40 (1-2)
0.8-1	Spring and winter barley	Powdery mildew, net spot, rhynchosporiosis, dark brown spot, dwarf rust	Plantings should be treated during the growing season. Use 300 liters of working solution per hectare.	40 (1-2)
1-1.5	Rice	Blast disease	The product should be applied during the growing season. 200-300 liters of working solution are required per hectare.	52 (2)

Instructions for use

For the product to be effective, the instructions for use must be strictly followed. The product can be used on cereal crops from the moment they begin tillering until flowering is complete. In any case, the substance has pronounced therapeutic properties and provides a long-lasting preventative effect.

The working solution must be prepared at stationary points or using mobile units that allow the substance to be thoroughly mixed with water in a special container.

It is recommended to turn on the agitator before using the sprayer. The working solution should be used the same day. It cannot be stored for long periods.

Precautionary measures

When using the substance, it is recommended to follow a number of rules:

1. Avoid getting the fungicide or its residues into water bodies.
2. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or gastrointestinal tract. Use personal protective equipment.
3. In case of skin contact, wash the affected area with plenty of soap and water. If accidentally swallowed, drink several glasses of water with activated charcoal. There are no specific antidotes. Therefore, doctors prescribe symptomatic treatment.

Is compatibility possible?

The product can be combined with a variety of pesticides. Amistar Trio combines well in tank mixes with the herbicides Peak, Prima Forte, and Derby. It can also be combined with various insecticides, including Karate Zeon and Engio. Furthermore, the fungicide complements the growth stimulator Moddus perfectly.

When preparing tank mixes, it's important to strictly follow the manufacturer's instructions. Before using the mixture, it's important to evaluate the compatibility of its components.

Storage conditions

The medication should be kept in a dry, dark place, out of reach of children and pets. Store separately from food, medications, and animal feed. It is important to ensure it is kept at the correct temperature: 5-35°C.

When stored properly, the shelf life is 3 years. Fresh working solution should be used within 24 hours.

Analogues

The drug has quite a few effective analogs. These include the following:

• "Maxim Forte";
• "Maxim Quatro";
• "Stronghold of the Trio";
• Quadris.

Amistar Trio is an effective fungicide that helps combat various types of fungal diseases. To ensure the product is effective, strictly follow the instructions for use. Compliance with safety precautions is also crucial.
