Fungicide Solution to Help Farmers Yield Seasons of Success

Fields of produce can change seemingly overnight, as canopies form, vines unfurl, blossoms open. Raising these crops successfully takes constant vigilance and protection. As plants grow and develop, they are threatened by many factors, one of the most important of which is fungal disease, which can affect the quantity and quality of fruits and vegetables.

 Zorvec active helps protect crops from fungal disease with a special combination of consistency and control, so farmers can better manage their crops to improve yield and quality, for richer, more bountiful harvests.

Preventive Protection Against Oomycetes 

Zorvec active works against a specific category of fungi known as oomycetes, or water molds. Oomycetes spread by producing zoospores that can swim across a thin layer of water on a leaf, looking for the perfect spot to settle and attach themselves. The names of water mold-based diseases tell you just how damaging they can be: blight, damping-off and root rot—to name a few. Zorvec prevents oomycete diseases by stopping sporangia and zoospores from germinating. When used strategically during specific growth stages, this active ingredient helps keep plants healthier and more productive.

First-in-Its-Class Fungicide

Zorvec active is the first active ingredient of its kind—a member of a novel class of fungicides that control diseases caused by oomycetes. Its biochemical mode of action works on a new target site, attacking these fungal diseases at every stage of their development. It also works inside plants to protect new growth. As leaves unfurl and vines stretch out, Zorvec continues protecting the plant.

Fungal Disease Control for Satisfying Success

With its outstanding efficacy and long-lasting, consistent results, Zorvec™ active is changing how farmers control fungal diseases and protect their high-value crops. Because this fungicide has a very low use rate, farmers can simplify their crop management practices. Products containing this active ingredient don’t have to be applied as often, and farmers can rest easy knowing their fruit and vegetable crops will be protected from oomycetes for longer. Innovative fungicide active ingredients like Zorvec are changing opportunities for farmers, too, helping them yield more from their acres and command the best prices for their high-quality produce.
