  1. Adjuvants with Fungicides

  2. Fungicide Features and Benefits • Improved overall plant health • Boosts a plant’s natural defense system • Improved photosynthesis process • Increased stress tolerance • Improved utilization of nutrients • Control of major foliar diseases • Increased tolerance to bacterial & viral infections • Stronger stalks and better grain quality • Faster, more efficient harvest • Increased yield opportunity !!

  3. Adjuvant Features and Benefits • Adjuvants with fungicides • Provides increased overall plant coverage • Reduces fungicide droplet evaporation • Reduces spray drift liability • Allows for increased disease resistance

  4. Features and Benefits • Best adjuvant option on corn and soybean fungicide applications • Increases fungicide effectiveness • Ensures that the active ingredient gets to the intended target • Extends drying time allowing the fungicide more time to work

  5. Features and Benefits • Unique proprietary formulation • Combination of paraffinic and modified seed oils • Excellent emulsifiers for easy mixing of fungicides in water and/or slow release nitrogen (SRN28) • Drift reduction additive for droplet management

  6. Features and Benefits • Spray droplet management tool • Increases the opportunity for canopy penetration and coverage • Manipulates the full droplet spectrum • Provides more uniform droplet sizes

  7. Superior Canopy Penetration and Coverage with Downdraft 2008 KSU Aerial Trial w/ Dr. Bob Wolf

  8. Downdraft Yield Enhancement +2 bu. corn means $12+/acre 2008 KSU Aerial Trial w/ Dr. Bob Wolf

  9. Downdraft Disease Reduction

  10. Recommendations • Excellent for use with aerial or ground applied fungicides • Can also be used in combination with herbicides and insecticides • Easily cleans off equipment • Use Rate - 4 ounces per acre

  11. Summary • Downdraft enhances fungicide activity by ensuring that the active ingredient gets to the intended target • Downdraft delivers more droplets into the canopy and onto the leaves increasing fungicide effectiveness • Downdraft helps increase yields and profit opportunities!!
