Corteva Agriscience launched the first product based on Zorvec active (oxathiapiprolin) in the Portuguese market. It is an active substance approved by the EU in 2017, which is in turn the first member of the new chemical class of piperidinyl thiazole isoxazoline (FRAC 49).

Mildew control


Zorvec Zelavin VEL offers a “unique combination of long-lasting and consistent mildew control. Due to its ascending systemic behavior, it protects the leaves as they grow and expand, including leaves that are less than 20% of their complete size at the time of application, even guaranteeing the protection of new shoots even if they have not been treated”, said the company.

Zorvec Zelavin VEL is positioned as an “effective and consistent solution for controlling downy mildew in times of maximum sensitivity to the disease and during critical periods such as flowering. With a block of two consecutive applications, it provides up to 28 days of protection”.

It also stands out for its flexibility in application. Zorvec Zelavin VEL provides protection against mildew in preventive combat, and also has a curative action. This preventive-curative performance guarantees protection when weather conditions cause a delay in application.

Absorbed quickly

Zorvec Zelavin VEL is absorbed quickly, with the vine protected in case of rain 20 minutes following the application. This reduces the need for new applications or unscheduled applications.

With Zorvec Zelavin VEL, a “completely new biochemical action solution enters the Portuguese market, which has multiple effects on the lifecycle of the fungus and does not present cross-resistance with the other anti-mildew fungicides in the market. In addition, it has an excellent environmental and safety profile for the operator”, the company added.

Rafael Pérez, category manager of fungicides at Corteva Iberia, highlighted the importance of this novelty for the sector and the direct benefits it offers to farmers. “Zorvec Zelavin VEL is a revolutionary product that radically improves strategies to combat one of the main problems of the vineyard, contributing significantly to the profitability of the harvest,” he said.

On the other hand, Clara Serrano, marketing leader EMEA of Corteva, said, “The mode of action of Zorvec Zelavin VEL represents a change in the rules of the game by providing control that until now no other product has been able to achieve, and with reduced doses of the active ingredient.”
