Prosaro 420 SC is a protective and curative fungicide that offers a very broad spectrum of disease control in canola, wheat, barley, oats, triticale and pyrethrum. Prosaro 420 SC is designed specifically to provide effective and long-lasting broad spectrum foliar disease control, combined with excellent curative (kick-back) activity. Its application timing is flexible, so you can target Prosaro applications to effectively manage specific diseases at the most appropriate development stage.
Registered for use in canola, wheat, triticale, barley, oats and pyrethrum
That provides effective and long-lasting broad spectrum foliar disease control
For the control of sclerotinia stem rot in canola and is also registered in Australia for the management of blackleg in canola
Such as barley net blotch and leaf scald

| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 1 What effect does Prosaro have on the retention of green leaves of the crop? | Due to the exceptional disease control provided by Prosaro, excellent green leaf retention may be noted after the use of the product. A higher percentage of leaves undamaged by disease results in a prolonged growing period and thus assists the crop to reach its full potential. For more information, please refer to the product guide. |
| 2 What is the recommended crop growth stage for applying Prosaro 420 SC in canola for blackleg and sclerotinia management? | The GRDC canola management guide for south-eastern Australia divides canola crop growth stages into six separate phases. Stage 0 [0.0 - 0.8] Germination and emergence, Stage 1 [1.0 - 1.2] Leaf production Stage 2 [2.0 - 2.2] Stem elongation Stage 3 [3.0 - 3.9] Flower bud development Stage 4 [4.1 - 4.9] Flowering Stage 5 [5.1 - 5.9] Pod development Blackleg: Apply at the 4 to 6 leaf of the crop (Stage 1) of blackleg susceptible varieties (blackleg ratings of MS or lower) or other varieties in situations of high blackleg risk. Will reduce lodging and stem canker from blackleg. A follow up application may be required at green bud of the crop (Stage 3) in high disease risk situations or where an effective blackleg seed treatment has not been used. Increased blackleg risk can be expected in higher rainfall districts (above 500 mm annual rainfall), where crops are grown within 500 m of a previous year’s canola stubble and in later sown crops (May to August). Other factors will also increase the risk of blackleg infection, including the intensity of canola cropping in a district, rainfall before sowing and the frequency of growing the same canola cultivar. Consult industry guidelines for more detailed assessment of blackleg risk in specific situations. Up to two sprays of Prosaro may be applied per season to the crop. Sclerotinia: Apply at 20 to 50% flowering of the crop “full bloom” (Stage 4). For best results apply as a preventative application at 20-30% flowering prior to significant disease expression. Good coverage throughout the entire canopy is essential. Using a water rate at the higher end of the range (ie, 100 L/ha for ground application and 30 L/ha for aerial application) will improve spray coverage. Apply the higher rate (450 mL/ha) under high disease pressure |
| 3 Do I need to add a surfactant/wetting agent when applying Prosaro? | The use of an adjuvant when spraying Prosaro depends on the crop that is being sprayed and disease that is to be treated. With some diseases, benefits in efficacy may be gained from addition of Hasten® or a range of alternative adjuvants to the spray mixture. In general, the treatment of diseases in canola or pyrethrum, powdery mildew in barley and yellow leaf spot in wheat do not require the addition of a wetting agent. For more information about the use of adjuvants with Prosaro, please refer to the product guide and product label or contact your local Bayer CropScience representative. |
| 4 At what growing/disease stage should I apply Prosaro in cereals? | Prosaro allows preventative control before the disease establishes as well as curative control after a disease has established. Application timing is extremely flexible, from early tillering stage (growth stage 21) right through to 5 weeks before harvest. This enables targeted application of the foliar fungicide to effectively manage each disease at the most appropriate development stage. Generally spray Prosaro at the first sign of disease. Up to two sprays of Prosaro may be applied per season to the crop. |
| 5 Which herbicides and insecticides can I tank-mix with Prosaro? | The compatibility of Prosaro with any other product involves a range of considerations including the choice of adjuvant used, rate of the tank mixing product, multiple mixtures, product manufacturer and more. Generally, Prosaro is physically compatible with a wide range of different products and has also been tested in field trials for any potential crop damage with more than 30 different mixtures (herbicide/insecticide/nutrients). There have been no significant levels of crop damage recorded or loss in foliar disease efficacy. For further information on compatibilities with Prosaro please see the product guide or contact Bayer CropScience. |
