Rotam's Tebuzim

Rotam Brazil said it is launching a new soybean fungicide, Tebuzim, a tebuconazole-based treatment, produced in combination with carbendazim (125g of tebuconazole + 125g of carbendazim), within an SC formulation.

Aimed at growers in the southern and central regions of Brazil, the product primarily prevents necrophyt diseases during the dormant period (before the V4/V5), and also has some curative activity. Trials show a yield benefit of around 75 kg of additional grain/ha due to the synergism of the molecules and distinct mode of action, according to Hong Kong-based Rotam. Tebuzim also allows better efficacy on specific rust application beyond the flowering stage.
