Integral® Pro
Integral® Pro is the first bio-fungicide seed treatment for Oilseed
Rape. It is an innovative and sustainable seed treatment solution,
which improves plant establishment and vigour.
Why Integral Pro?
Using Integral® Pro improves plant establishment and vigour by securing strong growth
from the very beginning. It offers protection in multiple ways through activating its plant
defence system and fungicidal effects. By protecting yield potential, a new benchmark
has been set for OSR.
How it works
Integral® Pro delivers true fungicidal effects to protect OSR and stimulate its
development.
Multi-mode of action:
• Colonisation of the roots protects the plants from various attacks and acts as a barrier
against fungi by forming a dense biofilm around the root.
• Fungicidal properties produce metabolites which degrade cell membranes.
Integral® Proproduces Iturin and Surfactin to prevent against disease and fungal spore
germination.
• Activation of Systematic Acquired Resistance (SAR) and Induced Systematic
Resistance (ISR) have been confirmed in the plant via genome sequencing, at different
growth stages.
Key benefits to grower
Fungicidal effects:
• There is an increase in nutrient uptake as Integral® Pro colonises the root. This enables
the crop to utilise nutrients more effectively and be more successful when field
conditions are limiting.
• Significant Phoma disease reduction
Reduction in Verticillium symptoms.
Plant strengthening:
• Improved plant establishment and vigour in autumn and spring
• Increased germination and plant growth
• Plant strengthening with better vigour after over-wintering
• Increase in yields.
