Zeltera® Pulse seed treatment delivers easy-to-apply, robust, broad-spectrum control of seed and soil-borne diseases in pulse crops. It has four modes of action, and two of them target every labeled class of pulse disease to manage resistance along with built-in aphanomyces and fusarium root rot protection.

Technical information

Active ingredients: Group 4 fungicide (metalaxyl), Group 7 fungicide (inpyrfluxam), Group 11 fungicide (mandestrobin), Group 22 fungicide (ethaboxam)
Application: 313 mL/100 kg of seed
Treatment area:
One case (2 x 10 L) treats 6,534 kg of seed, 240 bushels of peas or lentils
One drum (110 L) treats 35,937 kg of seed, 1,320 bushels of peas or lentils
Notes: Research has indicated a link between Aphanomyces and Fusarium root rot infection. It is imperative that both diseases be managed to limit root rot in susceptible crops.
