Kelsey 50% WP – The Ultimate Defense Against Blights

Kelsey 50% WP by Bravo Crop Sciences is a high-potency fungicidal blend designed to tackle the most destructive oomycete diseases. By combining Dimethomorph (6%) and Mancozeb (44%), Kelsey provides a “Double Shield” of protection. The Mancozeb acts as a protective barrier on the leaf surface, while the Dimethomorph penetrates deep into the plant tissues, stopping fungal growth and preventing new spores from forming.

Why Farmers Trust Kelsey 50% WP:

• Multi-Site Protection: Mancozeb provides non-systemic protection at multiple sites of the fungal cell, making it nearly impossible for diseases to develop resistance.
• Curative Power: Unlike simple contact fungicides, the systemic action of Dimethomorph can cure existing infections within the plant.
• Tuber Protection: Specifically effective in preventing Tuber Blight in Potatoes, ensuring a healthy and marketable harvest.
• Versatile Use: Excellent for a wide range of crops including Tomato, Onion, Tobacco, and Muskmelon.

Recommended Dosage & Crop Application

Expert Tip: For the most effective control, apply Kelsey 50% WP as a preventative spray when weather conditions (high humidity and cool nights) favor disease development. Ensure thorough coverage of both the upper and lower leaf surfaces. Technical support provided by PARC.

Expert Questions & Answers

Q: Is Kelsey systemic?
A: Yes, it is partially systemic. The Dimethomorph component moves locally within the leaf (translaminar) and through the plant’s vascular system to provide curative action, while Mancozeb stays on the surface for protection.

Q: Can I use Kelsey after the disease has already appeared?
A: Yes. Because of its curative properties, Kelsey is effective even after the first signs of blight or mildew appear, though preventative application is always recommended for maximum yield.

Q: Is it safe for the environment?
A: While highly effective against fungi, it is relatively non-toxic to bees and birds. However, it is toxic to fish, so avoid spraying near water bodies.

Q: What is the mix ratio for a 20L knapsack sprayer?
A: Typically, use 25g to 40g of Kelsey per 20L tank, depending on the severity of the disease and the crop stage.”
