Siltac Platinum – Tech
|
Description |
Siltac Platinum – Tech, a next-generation agricultural biostimulants and micronutrient enhancer, has been developed for the enhancement of plant protection products, with no residue. It is a contact-type adjuvant and works in synergy with crop protection products to achieve improved attachment, diffusion and perform on plant surface. Siltac Platinum – Tech creates an invisible elastic film on insect surfaces and leaves, which helps control soft-bodied pests and enhances the efficiency of nutrient uptake with no toxic residue on the plant. |

|
Benefits |
- Maximizes the performance of foliar micronutrients and crop-protection products by increasing their spread and adherence.
- Acts as a non-chemical biostimulant by forming a physical barrier that hinders pastepots such as aphids, whiteflies and thrips, without the use of pesticides though not harm to beneficial insects.
- No chemical residue due to which it is in high demand for export crops such as pomegranate, grapes and vegetables.
- Improves nutrient uptake by the plant by reducing the surface tension of the spray, helping it spread more evenly on the leaf.
- Strengthens the whole plant by aiding other inputs applied to it, so that the plant has greater growth and is better equipped to withstand stress.
- Helps reduce the amount of product washed off by rainfall or irrigation thereby increasing the persistence of the foliar application.
- Can be used in IPM (integrated pest management) and organic farming programs.
|
Application |
Apply Siltac Platinum at 0.2 to 0.3 ml per liter of spray along with micronutrient or pesticide applications. Distribute evenly over the plant foliage.
- Recommended Combinations:
Effective when mixed with micronutrients (zinc, iron, boron, etc.), insecticides, fungicides, and biostimulants to improve overall results.
Spray as part of crop protection calendar or when foliar feeding is done. Particularly recommended to be used at time of pest explosion or rectification of nutrients. |
Time |
- Ideally suitable for all active Foliar Spray scheduling’s – Veg, pre-Flower & Fruit.
- Spray Siltac Platinum during the cooler parts of the day to avoid product evaporation and increase effectiveness.
|
Precaution |
- Soil will not be able to completely release Star cover within the first season; however, be certain to perform a jar test when using with new crop inputs.
- Do not take Siltac Platinum more than directed.
- Don’t spray in high winds or with the bright midday sun.
- Keep Siltac Platinum in a cool dry place out of the sun.
- Use gloves and eye protection when handling.
