Low application rates

Materials used in this chapter were published in the book Biopesticide Albit for increasing yields and protection of agricultures against diseases, A.K. Zlotnikov, Ed. Prof. А. Melkumova. All-Russia Institute of Plant Protection, Russia, 2006.

Application rates of Albit are quite small for most cultures: presowing seed treatment generally takes 30-50 ml/tonne, foliar spraying – 30-50 ml/hectare (Table 21). For example, application rate for cereals is 30-40 ml/tonne (30-40 ml/hectare). Thus, 1 litre of Albit can be used for presowing treatment of 25-33 tonnes of cereal seeds, which can be sowed over 100-133 hectares. One litre of the formulation is enough for foliar spraying of 25-33 hectares of crops. Thus, treatment of 100 hectares of crops takes 0.75-1 litre of Albit for presowing treatment and 3-4 litres for foliar spraying.

Table 21. Application rates of Albit and treatment costs of different agricultures.
Plant species are presented in alphabetical order. In case of several recommended rates, here is presented the average one.
Treatment modes: p – presowing, f – foliar spraying.
