RECOMMENDED APPLICATION RATE: gardens: 0.2 l/ha; field crops: 0.05-0.1 l/ha
MECHANISM AND SPECTRUM OF ACTION:
SCABA®, KE significantly reduces the surface tension of the working solution, allowing the liquid to spread evenly and faster in places that are difficult to moisten (surfaces of plants covered with a wax coating and densely pubescent surfaces of young leaves and fruits). At the same time, thanks to the special formulation, at the level with strong spreading, the drug has adhesive properties - it prevents the working solution from running off.
Unlike other SCABA® adjuvants, KE is very mild, does not cause burns and does not damage the cuticle of young plants.
A characteristic feature of working solutions using the preparation SKABA®, KE is slow evaporation, thanks to which the work of fungicides and insecticides is significantly improved.
SCABA®, KE increases the effectiveness of pesticides by improving surface coverage.
Fungicides:
scientific research has proven that SKABA®, KE increases the coverage area by 20-30%
due to a better redistribution of drugs on the surface of the sheet (this especially applies to contact fungicides), the effectiveness of their use in a mixture with an adjuvant increases by 10-30%
Insecticides:
SCABA®, KE increases the effectiveness of insecticides
studies carried out by the Office of Plant Protection and Soil Conservation (Hungary) showed that SKABA®, KE improves the "starting" effectiveness of the drug MOSPILAN against the rape flower borer by 22%
the effectiveness of the application of this mixture increases significantly in the first 2 days, and in the future the difference in effectiveness is evened out. To increase the effectiveness, the adjuvant SKABA®, KE is recommended to be added in the fight against blood aphids, micro-mites (Schlechtendal's mite, head mites, etc.), pear and apple leaf aphids (medians)
