PathoCURB - A Thyme Oil-Based, Broad-Spectrum, Fungicide & Bactericide For All Crops

KCT-pathocurb-packaging

Thyme oil Technology

 

ACTIVE INGREDIENT:

  • Thyme oil.....................15.5% 

 

A botanical oil-based biological for the control of fungal and bacterial plant pathogens 

Kemin Crop Technologies strongly believes in the power of botanical oil-based crop protection solutions. The multiple modes of action offered by the various active compounds in botanical oils make these biopesticides excellent tools to prevent pathogens from developing resistance to standard chemistry used by growers.

Thyme essential oil is one of the most effective plant-based active ingredients that farmers can safely use to control detrimental fungal and bacterial plant pathogens.

Rotating fungicide-bactericide products with different class modes of action is crucial to minimize the possibility of fungicide resistance occurring. Therefore, we want to offer an additional fungicide-bactericide class and more modes of action to alternate in the tank mix and in the season to combat the threatening pathogens. 

Our sustainable crop protection solutions provide growers with an effective alternative to conventional chemistries.

Advantages of PathoCURB™

PathoCURB™ is a thyme oil-based fungicide and bactericide concentrate that effectively prevents and/or cures a broad range of foliar pathogens on commercial plants and crops. A contact spray of PathoCURB helps control the incidence and severity of fungal and bacterial diseases via cell membrane disruption. This mode of action makes PathoCURB an excellent biological product for growers to add in rotation to an Integrated Pest Management program to help lessen the likelihood of disease resistance development.

Botanical oil-based fungicides and bactericides are excellent sustainable crop protection solutions, as they often have multiple modes of action, which are less likely to contribute to resistance. But multiple modes of action aren’t the only advantage of botanical oil-based fungicides and bactericides. Botanicals also have lower Pre-harvest Intervals (PHI), allowing the grower to apply them closer to harvest time and still have a safe product for workers and consumers. 

Some conventional products have a few days or more re-entry intervals (REI), preventing growers from re-entering the field immediately. However, FIFRA 25(b) exempt products like PathoCURB™ have zero-hour Re-entry Intervals (REI) that give more flexibility to the grower.

Moreover,  25(b) exempt biologicals are allowed for use on a broad range of crops without restrictions on application timing or volume, like many EPA-registered products. These botanicals enable growers to be flexible and adjust their IPM programs according to the season and situation.
