Category: Pesticides Reading time: 5 min · Views: 1,222

Pests can destroy all labor and the ripening harvest. Once upon a time, an ineffective method of ordinary cleaning of damaged plants by hand was used. Now there are more effective ways to preserve the crop, for example, the Luna Tranquility fungicide.

When the drug gets on plants or in the soil, it has a selective destructive effect on weeds and other pests - rodents, insects.

Are such substances dangerous for humans, and how will the insects that pollinate these plants react to them? Concerns are justified, but if you strictly follow the instructions, there will be no harm. They won't harm the bees either. It is only important not to exceed the required concentration.

Composition and release form of the drug "Luna Tranquility"

“Luna Tranquility” is an innovative development by Bayer, intended for widespread use in farming and private households. The product allows you to control the development and spread of fungal pathologies in the area. A broad-spectrum fungicide against pathogenic microorganisms, it is effective against rust, spotting, scab and rot.

Available in the form of a concentrated suspension containing fluopyram and pyrimethanil.

Under the influence of fluopyram, cellular mitochondrial respiration of pathogens is blocked, and nematodes are also suppressed.

Pyrimethanil inhibits the synthesis of the amino acid methionine. This substance is distributed in the internal space of the plant and provides protection to untreated areas.

Mechanism of action

The bactericidal antifungal drug “Luna Tranquility” is used to combat ascomycetes, basidiomycetes and deuteromycetes. In addition to the main effect, it destroys harmful insects, rodents, as well as weeds along with seeds.

This is a systemic remedy, the active substances of which first penetrate inside the plant crop and then move to more distant areas, continuing to destroy pathogenic flora.

Description and properties of the drug

According to its intended purpose, the Luna fungicide is used to control a very wide range of fungal diseases. It is used in areas where vegetables, fruits and berries and even ornamental plants are grown. It has not only a preventive, but also a healing effect. The instructions for use of the Luna pesticide indicate that the drug is a systemic fungicide. This means that its use is advisable both during the period of an already developed infection and to prevent the onset of the disease. The advantages of systemic drugs over contact ones can be distinguished by their mode of action on pathogens:

Contact agents remain on the surface of the plant, their action is based on the defeat of pathogens upon contact. If it rains after treatment, the effect of the contact preparation is reduced. Systemic ones, which include the drug “Luna Tranquility,” penetrate the plant. They then move away from the treatment area and work in remote locations to destroy the pathogenic infection.

When using systemic drugs, frequent treatments are not required. Therefore, the number of applications is reduced compared to contact ones. This is indicated in the instructions attached to the Luna Tranquility fungicide. If you carry out treatments at the recommended phase of plant development, fungal diseases will bypass your area.

Advantages of the drug

The fungicide "Luna Tranquility" has the following advantages:

• destructive effect on pathogenic fungi;
• high activity of the active substance in the gas phase;
• combined composition, thanks to which pathogens do not get used to the components;
• activation of the growth of plant crops and their development;
• improving the quality of the crop;
• minimal degree of toxicity;
• lack of phytotoxic effects on garden vegetation.

Classification and properties of fungicides

Fungicides are intended to prevent and treat fungal diseases on plants. “Fungicide” is translated as a compound word consisting of two parts – mushroom (“fungus”) and kill (“caedo”). Substances with a fungicidal effect are:

• chemical origin (inorganic);
• biological origin (organic).

The first group includes compounds of elements such as manganese, potassium, iron, nickel, mercury, copper, and sulfur. In the second group, there are no heavy metals among the components, and therefore decomposes over time due to the action of living microorganisms. Organic fungicides have a significant advantage over synthetic ones in their environmental friendliness and ease of preparation. In addition, biological preparations combine well with many other pesticides, while chemical ones cannot always be combined with drugs of another group. The disadvantage of biological fungicidal compounds is their rapid decomposition time. After a few days they are already destroyed, leaving no traces of their use in the soil.

Fungicides are classified according to their mode of action. They serve for:

1. Prevention or protection of plants. Such drugs prevent infection of the crop by pathogens.
2. Treatments. This group destroys fungi already at the plant infection phase.

But there are combination drugs that combine both types of effects on pathogenic fungi. Such broad-spectrum fungicides include the drug “Luna Tranquility”.

Varieties

Fungicide "Luna Tranquility" is presented in two types.

"Luna Tranquility Experience" is a combined complete systemic fungicidal drug. Contains fluopyram and tecuconazole.

This remedy is most effective in the preventive treatment of vegetation against the massive development of fungal diseases. Suitable for protecting plantings of potatoes, carrots, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers and cabbage. Its advantage is the highest degree of safety, allowing processing to be carried out nearby a beekeeping farm.

The second variety - “Luna Tranquility Sensation” - is intended for antifungal protection of fruit and stone fruit crops growing in gardens. The combined composition includes the substances fluopyram and trifloxystrobin.

Among the advantages of the drug it should be noted:

• wide range of effects on pathogens;
• lack of fungal resistance;
• positive effect on fruit yield.

Consumption rates

Consumption rates for the Luna Tranquility fungicide vary depending on the disease.

Exceeding is unacceptable, as this causes plant toxicity.

Preparation of the working mixture and further use

To prepare the working mixture, it is necessary to dilute the dosage of the drug indicated in the instructions in a large volume of hot water.

The resulting solution should be sprayed on plants during the growing season. The first preventive treatment is recommended to be carried out when a stable air temperature reaches at least +10 degrees Celsius.

The next treatment can be carried out no earlier than 15 days later.

Safety rules when working with fungicide

When using a fungicide, you must follow the following safety rules:

1. Do not exceed the permissible dosage, as this may saturate the fruit with toxins.
2. Do not eat seeds treated with a fungicide raw.
3. To dilute the drug, use clean tap water that has settled sufficiently.
4. When working, it is necessary to use personal protective equipment.
5. Do not use empty antifungal containers to store liquids or other substances. The container must be handed over to a recycling collection point. Self-disposal by burning is unacceptable.

Fungicide Luna Tranquility

This is a new drug that was created by Bayer chemists. Agricultural products from this company are characterized by low toxicity to people and animals, but effectively destroy insects and rodents living in fields.

Each of our new products undergoes years of rigorous testing and research before hitting the market. So Luna Tranquility is a completely safe fungicide.

Application

Herbicide Luna Tranquility is a bactericidal antifungal agent that destroys fungi of the class Ascomycetes, Deuteromycetes and Basidiomycetes, and is also effective against nematodes. The product is harmful to rodents, fights harmful insects, destroys weeds and their seeds. Heals already diseased plants - eliminates the infection after it has penetrated them.

When exposed to harmful insects, the Moon enters their body and poisons them, causing the insects to die.

This drug is also applied to the soil during the growth and vegetation of plants at different stages of development.

Its role is indispensable when processing seeds and seedlings, since due to the moisture present in the air, fungal spores develop in planting materials. The drug destroys these spores and prevents mold from appearing.

The use of this substance increases productivity, plants take root and develop better.

Seeds treated with this drug are strictly prohibited from being used as food for poultry and animals. But as landings they are completely safe.

Active substance

The drug Luna Tranquility has two main active ingredients that have a systemic effect on plantings. These are fluopyram 125 g/l and pyrimethanil 375 g/l.

Impact

It copes with:

• powdery mildew of grapes;
• powdery mildew of fruits and vegetables;
• brown, gray and white rot;
• moniliosis;
• Alternaria blight;
• apple scab;
• phyllostictosis;
• rust.

But for each of these diseases, Luna Tranquility acts differently, and for some of them its effectiveness is not particularly high.

Submission rules

Under no circumstances should the dosage rate of the drug be exceeded. Ignoring this requirement will lead to poisoning of the ripened fruits, making them toxic to those who consume them.

Seeds treated with this drug are sold on the market. They are prohibited from being eaten raw. But when planted, they are guaranteed not to get sick, produce a higher yield and cope with other problematic issues.

The drug cannot be applied to the soil in concentrated form; it must be diluted with clean water. Dirty water reduces the effectiveness of the drug, and when using tap water, it must be given time to settle.

Depending on what pests the drug is used for, the concentration will be different. With each use, the plant will have protection from pests for up to 2-3 weeks, and under favorable circumstances, longer.

On average, 0.5 to 1 ml of fungicide per liter of water is required.

The first spraying is done during the growing season, then preventively every 10-15 days.

Luna Tranquility is also excellent for late processing before storing for winter storage.

Disposal of packaging

The drug is available in plastic packaging - 5 liter canisters. Nothing can be stored in such a canister, not even water for technical purposes, as it becomes toxic when combined with plastic. When such things are burned, a large amount of carcinogens are released into the air, so burning such things is prohibited.

It is impossible to safely dispose of such items on your own. The best option is to collect such canisters and hand them over to recycling collection points. They are suitable for further processing.
