Product details

Score 250EC is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide widely used in agriculture to control a variety of fungal diseases in crops. Manufactured by Syngenta, this product is known for its effectiveness in managing diseases such as leaf rust, leaf spots, powdery mildew, and Alternaria. The fungicide's active ingredient, Difenoconazole, ensures robust disease control, promoting healthy crop growth and higher yields.

Active Ingredient

Difenoconazole: 250g/L

Difenoconazole is a triazole fungicide that works by inhibiting the biosynthesis of sterols in fungal cell membranes. This disruption leads to the death of the fungal cells, effectively controlling the spread of the disease. Difenoconazole is known for its long-lasting preventive activity combined with curative and eradicant properties.

Mode of Action

Systemic Action: Score 250EC is absorbed by the plant and translocated throughout its tissues. This systemic action ensures that the fungicide reaches all parts of the plant, providing comprehensive protection against fungal diseases.

Preventive and Curative: The fungicide works both as a preventive and curative agent. It stops the development of fungi by interfering with the biosynthesis of sterols in cell membranes, preventing the growth and spread of the disease.

Target Diseases

Score 250EC is effective against a variety of fungal diseases, including:

Leaf Rust: A fungal disease that causes rust-colored spots on leaves, leading to reduced photosynthesis and overall plant health.

Leaf Spots: Fungal infections that cause spots on leaves, leading to reduced photosynthesis and plant vigor.

Powdery Mildew: A fungal disease that causes a white, powdery coating on leaves, stems, and flowers, leading to reduced plant growth and yield.

Alternaria: A fungal disease that causes dark, necrotic spots on leaves, stems, and fruits, leading to reduced plant health and yield.

Recommended Application Rates

General Use: 0.5 liters per hectare

The specific application rate may vary depending on the crop and disease pressure. It is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for optimal results.

Application Methods

Foliar Spray: Score 250EC is primarily applied as a foliar spray. Ensure thorough wetting of the crop to maximize effectiveness. Both the upper and lower leaf surfaces should be treated to ensure comprehensive disease control.

Preparation: Mix 20 mL of Score 250EC in 20 liters of water. Apply at a rate of 0.5 liters per hectare. Ensure continuous agitation during spray operations to maintain a uniform mixture.

Environmental Impact

Non-Phytotoxic: When used as recommended, Score 250EC is generally non-phytotoxic to most crops. It does not harm beneficial insects or pollinators when applied correctly.
