Gezeko - Tebuconazole 50% + Trifloxystrobin 25% WG - FMC
FMC Gezeko combines Tebuconazole 50% + Trifloxystrobin 25% WG, a FRAC Group 3 + 11 fungicide with crop-specific doses and harvest intervals.
Item description
FMC Gezeko Tebuconazole 50% + Trifloxystrobin 25% WG Fungicide
Gezeko is a systemic and locally systemic WG fungicide combining the DMI Tebuconazole with the QoI Trifloxystrobin. It is a fungicide, not an insecticide.
Use note: Use the crop-specific dose and PHI. FMC's sold-pack label should decide tomato PHI because its current label says 3 days while the generic ACFI table shows 5 days.
Key Product Benefits
- Protective plus systemic / mesostemic disease management.
- Two FRAC target groups for use within a resistance-management programme.
- Registered crop-specific uses across cereals, fruit, vegetables, cotton, tea and groundnut.
