Instructions for use of fungicide Kolosal, consumption rates and analogues

Composition, release form and purpose of the drug Kolosal Pro

The product for combating fungal infections includes 2 active ingredients:

• propiconazole – 300 grams per liter, that is, 30%;
• tebuconazole – 200 grams per liter, 20%.

These substances belong to the group of triazoles - organic compounds that inhibit the synthesis of sterols in the body of fungi.

High fungicidal properties are ensured by the fine dispersion of the solution - Kolosal particles do not exceed 200 nanometers.

The fungicide is produced in plastic canisters of 5 and 10 liters. The developer and manufacturer of the drug is Avgust LLC, Russia.

Kolosal was created for the industrial treatment of agricultural crops over large areas against fungal infection. Areas of application:

1. Cereals. Rust – brown, yellow, stem, dwarf. Spotting – dark brown, netted, striped. Powdery mildew.
2. Grapes are oidium.
3. Sugar beet – fomoz, cercospora, powdery mildew.
4. Soybean – ascochyta blight, cercospora blight, alternaria blight, septoria blight, anthracnose.
5. Rapeseed - phomosis, powdery mildew, alternaria.
6. Peas - anthracnose, rust, powdery mildew, ascochyta blight.

The drug is defined as a nanoemulsion; the smallest particles are easily sprayed and distributed throughout the tissue structures of plants in a short time.

Purpose

The drug is intended for the treatment of crops against fungal diseases.

The principle of action of the drug is that its main components inhibit and stop the production of ergosterol in the cell membranes of fungi. With the death of pathogens, mycelial growth stops, and plant crops can be saved from wilting even with obvious symptoms of the disease.

Kolosal Pro has not only a therapeutic, but also a stimulating effect; propiconazole in its composition improves plant vegetation and accelerates photosynthesis. As a result, the productivity of vegetable and grain crops increases.

The beneficial effect after spraying can be observed 2-4 hours after application. The preventive and therapeutic effect of the drug lasts for 4-5 weeks, the fungicide is poorly washed off from the leaves by precipitation, and in heat and drought its protective properties only increase.

The particle size when spraying Colosal Pro does not exceed 200 nm, which ensures good penetration into tissue.

It is recommended to use Colosal Pro:

• For rust and powdery mildew of peas.
• For ascochyta blight, anthracnose and septoria blight of soybeans;
• Against rust and spot diseases of grain crops;
• Against fomoz, powdery mildew and cercospora of sugar beet;
• With grape oidium;
• Against Alternaria rape;

Available for sale as a liquid solution in canisters of 5 and 10 liters.

Note: The fungicide is most often used in the industrial processing of agricultural crops. It is quite inconvenient to use it in the garden.

Mechanism of action of the fungicide

The components of Kolosal Pro, which are in a state of fine suspension, rise up through the plant conduction system and are distributed throughout all tissues. Both active substances suppress and stop the synthesis of ergosterol in the membranes of fungal cells. The death of fungi leads to a stop in the growth of mycelium (mycelium as a whole).

Tebuconazole and propiconazole have different areas of activity. The combined action suppresses all types of pathogenic flora. For infected crops, Kolosal Pro serves as a medicine, freeing it from pathogenic flora that have penetrated inside.

Propiconazole also stimulates vegetation in crops, as it increases the rate of photosynthesis.

Advantages of the drug

• Kolosal Pro has a tremendous penetration rate into plant parts. At the same time, it easily decomposes and is excreted by vegetative parts, purposefully acting effectively on the ear.
• Due to its high systemic properties, the fungicide has an excellent therapeutic effect. But it is most effective in the initial stages of the disease.
• The consumption of the drug is only 300 liters per hectare of crops.
• Kolosal Pro has a positive effect on the growth and formation of plants. After treatments, the yield and quality of grain increases.

Period of protective action and speed of exposure

2-4 hours after spraying, Kolosal spreads throughout tissue structures and begins to work. It stops the growth of mycelium, kills fungi that have penetrated inside and are destroying the plant.

Positive and negative sides

The undoubted advantages of the drug include:

• activity against most known fungi;
• high penetrating ability into all plant tissues;
• speed of action and long-term activity of the drug;
• pronounced medicinal properties - eliminates fungi from completely affected crops;
• used in any weather conditions, the effect covers almost the entire growing season;
• does not have an inhibitory effect on soil microorganisms.

The negative aspects of the impact and use of Kolosal Pro are considered:

• does not stop the formation of spores in some types of fungi, which requires repeated treatments;
• the drug is difficult to neutralize, therefore it is not used in homestead conditions;
• highly toxic to bees, beneficial insects, fish;
• It does not eliminate some types of fungal infections, in particular fusarium and root rot.

The drug is not used to protect seedlings and seedlings. Cereals should be pollinated before they emerge into the tube, since it does not penetrate into the ears later.

Precautionary measures

Propiconazole and tebuconazole are substances of the 3rd class of danger for humans and warm-blooded animals (moderately hazardous substances). However, when developing precautionary measures for working with Kolosal, the following are taken into account. factors:

1. For 1st generation triazoles, used since 1979, carcinogenic activity and long-term post-effects on the environment have been fairly reliably established;
2. 2nd generation triazoles, based on long-term observations, are increasingly suspicious of the same thing;
3. DV formations of CME/CNE easily penetrate the body through unprotected skin;
4. Due to their stability, propiconazole and tebuconazole persist for a long time in the human body;
5. The same active substances are highly dangerous for bees, beneficial insects and aquatic organisms;
6. For the same reason, neutralization of residues is difficult.

Based on this, the security zones for working with the Kolosal fungicide are established as follows:

• Apiary – from 6.5 km. There are no restrictions on the flight of bees in nearby apiaries, because after using the drug, bees will be poisoned from them in the treated areas throughout the season;
• Reservoirs, water supply sources - according to their cadastral water protection zone, but not closer than 1.5 km during aerial processing;
• Children's, medical and recreational institutions - 500 m;
• Any residential buildings (including temporarily inhabited), food storage facilities, premises and areas for keeping pets - 150 m2;
• Other outbuildings and adjacent productive land areas - 50 m for manual/mechanized and 500 m for aerial processing.

Full PPE for manual work with Kolosal fungicide must be used, see figure:

1. Protective overalls for the body.
2. On the face - safety glasses and a filtering respirator. The anti-dust petal respirator is absolutely unsuitable.
3. Wear rubber protective gloves for working with pesticides. The sleeves of the overalls are pulled over the cuffs of the gloves.
4. On your feet - waterproof rubber boots. The overalls are worn with untucked trousers.

After work, PPE is treated with special neutralizing liquids based on organic solvents. The discharge of neutralizing compounds is collected in a moisture-proof, chemically inert container and delivered for disposal to a special receptacle. The operator who worked with Kolosal should immediately after work wash thoroughly in the shower with detergents based on saponin or synthetic surfactants (head shampoo, gel or body shampoo). It is better for specialists to handle PPE after working with Kolosal. profile, having the corresponding equipment, as well as neutralizing the spilled drug.

Note: it is best to involve on-call specialists for the entire treatment of crops/plantings with Kolosal. Considering that a canister of the drug is enough for 8-30 hectares of land, this will most likely cost less than doing it yourself.

Symptoms of Kolosal poisoning are mild: irritation of the eyes, mucous membranes, skin, indigestion, general weakness and malaise.
If any of them are detected during work, you should immediately stop, rinse and cleanse the stomach with home remedies and consult a toxicologist. If unusual illness occurs within 2-3 weeks after using the drug, you should also consult a doctor. The fungicide Kolosal is stored under the usual conditions for agrochemicals: in a separate non-residential premises, inaccessible to children and animals. You cannot store food products, medications, supplies or household items there. It is highly desirable that the floor in the storage of Kolosal and other agrochemicals in the form of an oil emulsion be moisture-resistant and moisture-proof, for example. covered with linoleum with a protective layer thickness of 0.4 mm. In this case, neutralization of the drug spilled on the floor can be done independently with a rag soaked in kerosene, solvent, etc. Used rags are burned in an incinerator.

Consumption rate for different plants

The manufacturer suggests using Kolosal in the following quantities:

The upper permissible value of the amount of fungicide is chosen if the crops are heavily infected.

Instructions for use

When using the substance, you must strictly follow the instructions. The dosage and features of use of the composition are indicated in the table:

Application procedure

According to the instructions, the earlier the crops are treated, the more effective the fungicide is applied - at the beginning of the spread of the fungus and on young growing crops. Rules of application:

• grains – 1 time during early growing season;
• grapes - 3-4 times, the first time - before flowering, the last time - when the grapes are the size of peas;
• sugar beets, legumes, rapeseed - 1-2 times.

Feedback from agronomists about the fungicide

Marat Yusupovich, Tatarstan

Kolosal Pro was used for processing winter wheat. Really not afraid of rain. It turned out that I delayed processing and it was no longer possible to wait. I relied on the description of the drug. And I was not mistaken. An hour before the rain was enough for the liquid to be absorbed and not washed away with water. The protection is quite long-lasting. But with severe damage, the drug does not cope.

Marina Valentinovna, Krasnodar region

I did not find information in the instructions on using Kolosal Pro for processing grapes. But there is such information on the Internet. The neighbors had little left of it and had nowhere to put it. I tried to cultivate the vineyard. I liked the result. It is very little tedious and just one treatment is enough if you catch the fungus at the very beginning.

Safety rules for use

When working with fungicide, you must follow the prescribed safety rules:

1. Pour into containers on special platforms (concrete, compacted earth). Distance from housing, premises for animals, pastures, water sources - 200-500 meters.
2. When diluting the fungicide and spraying, use protective suits - overalls, boots, respirators, goggles, gloves.
3. Upon completion of work, wash thoroughly.
4. Remains of the fungicide solution are disposed of using special means.

Store canisters in isolated storage rooms, separate from things, equipment, and products.

Information: there is no antidote for Kolosal; in case of poisoning, the usual means are used - gastric lavage, taking adsorbents.

Is it compatible with other products?

All crop protection products are compatible and can be used together. Pesticides and herbicides are mixed in a container with water, and Kolosal is added last.

The fungicide is not combined with concentrated alkalis or acids. After preparing the solution, a control test for phytotoxicity is required before treatment.

Similar means

To protect and treat different types of crops, fungicides with one or more active ingredients are used:

1. PropiChance Universal. Complete analogue containing active components in the same proportions. .
2. Altazol. . Contains 2 active ingredients – propiconazole and cyproconazole. Used for grains, sugar beets.
3. Forecast. Systemic fungicide with propiconazole as an active ingredient.
4. Soligor. Used for grain crops. Contains 3 active ingredients. Systemic fungicide.

If the type of pathogen is determined, fields can be treated with a smaller-spectrum fungicide with one active component.

The use of Kolosal Pro is a reliable and proven way to protect plants and obtain a stable harvest. Knowing the rules and strictly following the instructions for using a fungicide reduces the risk of toxic effects on the land, crops and humans.
