Ourofino launches Dotte fungicide to combat Asian soybean rust

Ourofino Agrociência launched the Dotte fungicide (picoxystrobin + prothioconazole) for the control of Asian rust e leaf spots on soybeans. According to information released to the press, the pesticide, developed by the company's research area, has an exclusive formulation with high adhesiveness.

This feature minimizes losses due to rain and ensures permanence on the leaves. Gradual absorption increases selectivity and improves performance in the field. Photoprotection prevents degradation of active ingredients due to UV rays.

Systemic action allows the fungicide to act on different parts of the plant. According to Kaiê Miranda, product manager, the launch represents the result of years of research focused on Brazilian tropical conditions. Slow absorption and low degradation preserve effectiveness for longer.

The company expressed expectations of expanding the use of Dotte to other crops, such as wheat.
