Taegro

Taegro is a biofungicide, a microorganism-based fungicide for the suppression of foliar diseases in a range of crops.

Taegro is a microorganism-based fungicide, approved for use in organic systems*, formulated as a wettable powder containing 130 g/kg Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain FZB24 (13% w/w minimum of 1x1013 cfu/kg), supressing diseases on ornamental crop production, nursery fruit trees, grapevines, strawberry and other edible crops (see label and EAMU for full details) grown outdoor or under temporary/permanent protection

Defending against disease in three key ways:

• Production of antimicrobial metabolites
• Competition on leaf surfaces
• Enhanced plant resistance

Taegro must be pre-mixed thoroughly with water to assure a properly distributed suspension.

• If the pH of the water is less than 5 or greater than 8, adjust to a pH within the range 5-8 before mixing with Taegro
• It is recommended to pre-mix the required amount of Taegro in a container with 2-5 L of water
• Add half of the water required to the tank and begin agitation
• Slowly empty the pre-mix into the tank
• When the suspension is thoroughly mixed, add the remaining water
• Keep the mixture in constant agitation in the spray tank prior to application
• Apply content of entire suspension within a few hours of mixing, do not leave in direct sunlight
