Bayer CropScience’s fungicide Proline gets U.S. approval
Jan. 14, 2011
State regulatory officials have approved Proline fungicide (active ingredient: prothioconazole) from Bayer CropScience to treat Sclerotinia stem rot in soybeans in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota and Wisconsin.
Studies show that Proline effectively suppresses the disease, commonly called white mold, in soybeans while promoting healthy crop development. White mold, which also can reduce seed quality and can cause seed contamination, typically appears after canopy formation. Bayer CropScience recommends an initial application of Proline before canopy closure at early flowering for increased effectiveness against white mold.
Proline fungicide also provides powerful protection against various diseases in other crops, including canola, chickpeas, lentils and dry beans.
