ProNet-Alfa
Wetting and adhesive agent as additive for plant protectants and for applications in hop, fruit, and wine growing

ProNet-Alfa is a biological wetting and adhesive agent on the basis of proteins. In the first place it improves the adhesion of pesticides on water-repellent surfaces and thereby increases the effect of plant protectants without causing the slightest pollution. The application of ProNet-Alfa prevents splash stains. ProNet-Alfa impairs neither the odour nor the taste of the crop and stands out for its excellent plant compatibility. The use of ProNet-Alfa spares beneficial insects.

Effect:
The wetting agent ProNet-Alfa increases the effectiveness of the spray fluid by the:

  • even distribution of the applied spray fluid on the plant because of a high synergism with the surfactants in pesticide formulations (better wetting)
  • increase of the spray layer’s adhesion
  • better penetration into the wax-like excreta of various pests and an efficiency increase of special applications, e.g. against pear psylla, woolly apple aphid, red spider mite, tomato russet mite, ...
  • added benefit of washing off honeydew, for example

Approved Applications:
Wetting agent as additive to plant protectant spray fluid; 0.1 - 0.15 %

Instructions for Use / Applications in Fruit and Wine Growing, Gardening:
0.1 – 0.15 % (100 - 150 ml / 100 l spray fluid); packaging type: 10-litre container

Add the wetting agent ProNet-Alfa to the mixture of plant protectant and fertiliser and stir. The wetting agent ProNet-Alfa mixes with all conventional plant protectants. The plant protectant manufacturer’s instructions must be observed.

Special Directions for Use:
The practical effect of adding ProNet-Alfa to the spray fluid is particularly high in the treatment of plants with water-repellent, wax-like surfaces (cabbage plants, turnip, beet, leek, vine, foliage plants in ornamental plant cultivation / open-air nursery or nursery under glass ...), in the treatment of hardly wettable films of noxious fungi (powdery mildew, rusts ...), and in the treatment of hidden pests and insect pests with wax-like excreta (aphids, white fly ...).

Technical Features:

  • highly plant compatible (even with very sensitive cultures in ornamental plant cultivation)
  • non-foaming
  • removes sugar and organic fat layers
  • completely biodegradable into carbon dioxide and water
  • food safe
