Description

Valid is a broad-spectrum seed care solution engineered with a unique mode of action to protect crops from the earliest stage of growth. It combines the power of three active ingredients to provide both fungicidal and insecticidal protection, targeting fungal pathogens and sucking pests simultaneously. Optimized for use in major field crops, Valid penetrates and concentrates around the seed, creating a long-lasting protection zone for excellent crop safety and superior performance at low use rates.

Key Features & Benefits

• Triple-Action Formula: Composed of three powerful active ingredients—Clothianidin, Fludioxonil, and Metalaxyl—for comprehensive protection.

• Dual Pest Control: Effectively controls both fungal diseases and early-stage sucking pests with a single application.

• Unique Mode of Action: Interferes with protein synthesis in fungal cells at multiple points in their life cycle, preventing resistance and ensuring effective control.

• Seed-Zone Protection: Penetrates and concentrates around the seed, establishing a long-lasting protective zone in the rhizosphere.

• Low Use Rate, High Efficacy: Delivers exceptional activity against target fungi and pests while requiring minimal product application.

• Excellent Crop Safety: Formulated to be safe for the seed and developing seedling, promoting vigorous early growth.

Mode of Action

Valid combines three complementary modes of action:

• Clothianidin (Insecticide): A systemic neonicotinoid that provides control of early-season sucking pests by disrupting the insect's nervous system.

• Fludioxonil (Fungicide): A contact fungicide that inhibits protein synthesis in fungal cells, effective against a wide range of seed-borne and soil-borne pathogens.

• Metalaxyl (Fungicide): A systemic fungicide that targets Oomycete fungi (like Pythium and Phytophthora), providing protection against root and stem rots.

• Maize (Corn)
