Eradicate common problems like mold, mildew, fungi, viruses, and bacteria. SAFRAX Chlorine Dioxide provides a powerful defense against a wide range of plant pathogens, ensuring a healthier and more pristine growing environment for your plants.
FLOWERS |
Safrax® is an effective tool to optimize flower cultivation. Its application allows for the disinfection of both soil and plants, eliminating pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses that can affect the health of flowers. By integrating Safrax®F into agronomic management, producers can prevent and treat diseases, improve flower quality, and extend their shelf life. Furthermore, its non-corrosive formulation ensures a safe environment for plants and the ecosystem, facilitating robust and vibrant growth in flower crops.
BANANA |
Stabilized Chlorine Dioxide Safrax® is a potent biocide. For its application, the cover is placed after defining the last layer of castor oil and the banana is cut, ensuring to also remove all banana flowers. Before placing the cover, it is recommended to fumigate with chlorine dioxide Safrax® at a concentration of 5 ppm (10 tablets per 200 liters of water) to provide effective protection and ensure crop health.
PINEAPPLE |
The application of Chlorine Dioxide Safrax® is essential for the establishment and care of seedlings, helping to eliminate pathogens such as fungi, bacteria, and nematodes. The recommended steps are as follows:
Soil Preparation: When planting seedlings, apply a solution of Chlorine Dioxide Safrax®, using 200 tablets dissolved in 200 liters of water to disinfect the soil and eliminate pathogens.
Seedling Disinfection: To disinfect seedlings before planting, immerse them for a few seconds in a 20 ppm solution, prepared with 40 tablets in 200 liters of water.
Reapplication: At 30 to 40 days after planting, make a new application of Chlorine Dioxide at 20 ppm, using 40 tablets again in 200 liters of water.
Foliar Fertilization: Provide foliar fertilization until seedlings develop adequate roots.
Phytopathology Monitoring: Maintain constant monitoring of possible phytosanitary problems to act in time.
Crop Fumigation: For fumigation throughout the cultivation process, prepare a mixture in a 3000-liter boom with:
3 sachets of Chlorine Dioxide (1500 tablets)
4 liters of Potassium Phosphite
2 liters of potassium soap (preferably with garlic)
4 liters of Folimix
150 pounds of Urea
4 gallons of molasses dissolved in water (add before introducing to the boom).
Note: In case of rain, remove molasses from the mixture to avoid interference with the treatment.
These steps will help ensure healthy and productive growth of your crops.
RICE |
Chlorine dioxide, specifically the Safrax® product, has been successfully used for the control of pathogens such as Rhizoctonia and Pyricularia in rice cultivation. This fungicide acts preventively, improving plant health and increasing their resistance to diseases. A dose of 100 tablets per 200 liters of water is recommended for optimal results.
TOMATOES |
Safrax® is a potent and safe solution for tomato cultivation, designed to disinfect both soil and plants. Chlorine dioxide Safrax® effectively eliminates common pathogens, such as Fusarium spp., Botrytis spp., Pseudomonas syringae, and Phytophthora spp., which are responsible for various diseases in tomatoes. By incorporating Safrax® into agricultural management, producers can prevent disease outbreaks, improve overall plant health, and ensure a high-quality harvest. Additionally, its non-corrosive formulation ensures that no harmful residues are left behind, protecting both the ecosystem and crop integrity. With Safrax®, tomato producers can enjoy robust and sustainable growth, maximizing yield and quality.
HARVESTED POTATOES |
Safrax® is an ideal solution for cleaning potatoes after harvest, ensuring effective and safe disinfection. Chlorine dioxide Safrax® eliminates pathogens such as E. coli, Salmonella, and fungi that can affect potato quality. By using Safrax®, producers can ensure that their products are free of contaminants, improving food safety. One of the main advantages of this product is that it does not leave toxic residues, which means it does not affect human consumption. With Safrax®, harvested potatoes are not only efficiently cleaned but also guaranteed to be safe and healthy for the market, preserving them for longer.
COFFEE |
Coffee rust is a fungus that can be effectively controlled with chlorine dioxide from Safrax®. To do this, it is recommended to prepare a solution of 20 to 50 ppm and apply a significant volume of water to ensure that the leaves are completely covered, paying special attention to the underside of the leaves. For optimal application, it is suggested to use a motor pump, which allows for better leaf coverage. It is important to work at the lowest speed possible to avoid strong gusts that may scatter spores. Although backpack pumps offer less dispersion, they do not provide the necessary coverage or have electrostatic technology. Aerial application is a viable option but should be done using a larger volume of water and increasing the concentration of chlorine dioxide to ensure its effectiveness.
FRESH HERBS |
Safrax® is an effective solution for the cultivation and disinfection of aromatic herbs, ensuring they are free from pathogens and contaminants. Its chlorine dioxide eliminates harmful microorganisms, such as fungi and bacteria, which can affect the quality and flavor of herbs. By integrating Safrax® into agricultural management, producers can prevent diseases and improve the overall health of plants, ensuring vibrant and fresh harvests. Additionally, this product does not leave toxic residues, guaranteeing that aromatic herbs are completely safe for human consumption. With Safrax®, producers can offer high-quality herbs, keep them in good condition for longer, and promote sustainable cultivation.
COCOA |
Safrax® offers an innovative solution for cocoa cultivation, focusing on disinfection and plant protection. This product is highly effective against common pathogens in crops, such as Phytophthora and Moniliophthora, which can compromise plant health and reduce yield. By applying Safrax®, producers can ensure that their crops are protected from diseases, promoting healthy and robust development. Additionally, its formula does not leave toxic residues, ensuring that cocoa beans are safe for human consumption. With Safrax®, producers can optimize the quality of their cocoa, contributing to a more sustainable and responsible cultivation process.
