RVR Disease Control 0-34-20

Disease Control Series contains essential elements that crops need, nitrogen, available phosphate and soluble potash, to stimulate root development, plant growth and fruit set.

Disease Control Series adds phosphorous acid. The research proved that phosphorous acid is an effective fungicide against Oomycete pathogens, such as Phytophthora, Phythium, and Downy mildews for a number of crops. Phosphorous acid has both a direct and indirect effect on these pathogens and inhibits a particular process (oxidative phosphorylation). Moreover, according to some evidences, phosphorous acid has an indirect effect by stimulating the plants natural defense response against pathogen attack. After absorbing phosphorous acid, it is possible that when these products are applied to plant root systems or in the soil, soil microbes could convert these compounds to phosphate which would be available to the plant as a phosphorus nutrient. Using phosphorous acid along with phosphate is a good idea to make sure that the plants are not deficient in phosphorus. Phosphorous acid is not easy to cause pollution due to its low usage volume. It is non toxic to human and animals.

Disease Control Series may be placed on the surface of the soil or directly spray on the crops every 7 to *5 days.

Disease Control Series is designed for use in all soil types. It should be concentrated for maximum response. Apply it as a band in the soil or inject it through drip or micro-sprinkler systems. Application rates will vary depending on the crop grown.
