Benefits
Abacus® Advance is composed of two active ingredients with contact and systemic activities for the control of tough foliar diseases. As a systemic fungicide, it penetrates through the plant giving good control of diseases and as a contact fungicide it remains on the leaf longer to prevent new infections for a longer period of time.

Brown rust (Barley)
| Recommended rate | Time of application | Number of application |
|---|---|---|
| 1 lt / ha | Apply preventively, or at very first signs of disease presence. Apply a second application, 3 – 4 weeks later, if high disease pressure occurs. Ground application: Apply in 200 – 400 lt water / ha. Aerial application: Apply in 30 – 40 lt water / ha. | 2 |
Disease rust
| Recommended rate | Time of application | Number of application |

Common rust
| Recommended rate | Time of application | Number of application |
|---|---|---|
| 1.6 lt / ha | Apply the first application of Abacus® Advance, at growth stage 31 (first node detectable above the soil surface, also described as the 5 – 6 leaf stage). A second application of Abacus® Advance, is recommended at growth stage 51 (tassel detectable). If extended disease control is required, under continued high disease pressure conditions, a third application with Duett® (L5791), is recommended, 3 - 4 weeks later.In certain areas / conditions, where low disease presence is expected, apply Abacus® Advance between growth stage 31 (first node detectable above soil surface, also described as the 5 - 6 leaf stage) and growth stage 35 (8 leaf stage). Growth stage 35, is regarded as the last possible stage to enter the field, with a conventional tractor applicator. If extended disease control is required, revert back to the above mentioned follow–up application, of Abacus® Advance. | 2 |

Soybean rust
| Recommended rate | Time of application | Number of application |
|---|---|---|
| 1 lt / ha | Spray preventively, before the first signs of disease development is noticed (normally at onset of flowering) and repeat 21 – 28 days later. Apply the shorter interval of 21 days, when high disease pressure is expected, due to weather conditions, that favour disease development. This programme application, will also reduce the incidence of Sclerotinia (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum). Ground application: Apply, as a full cover spray in 150 - 300 lt water / ha. Use well maintained, quality application equipment, delivering a fine and evenly distributed spray pattern, on the plant surface.Aerial application: As for recommendations above, in 40 lt water / ha. | 2 |

|---|---|---|
| 1.6 lt / ha | Abacus Advance Apply two applications. The first application, is to be applied at 4 – 6 leaf stage, preventively, or at the first sign of brown rust infection. The second application, is to be made one month after the first application. Preventive application, for the control of Tawny rust, is strongly advised. It is a disease that develops rapidly and curative application may not always provide desired results. Ground application: Apply as a full cover spray in 200 lt water / ha. Aerial application: Apply in 30 lt water / ha. | 2 |

Why Abacus® Advance?
Abacus® Advance gives you:
- Improved water use efficiency – Abacus® Advance treated plants need less water to produce a kilogram of grain.
- Improved assimilation of nitrogen that enables better plant growth, ultimately contributing to higher yields.
- Increased daily CO2 uptake which leads to increased starch production and therefore better yield.
- Inhibited ethylene production under stressful conditions, consequently fewer leaves are sacrificed, allowing the crop to optimise the grain fill process.
- A systemic and translaminar fungicide, thus protecting all parts of the plant for optimal growth.
- Protective and curative effects.
- Prevention against spore germination, infections and mycelia growth with limited secondary infections in later stages of plant growth.
- Effective control of grey leaf spot, northern leaf blight and rust in maize.
- Effective control of Asian soybean rust in soybeans.
