GEMINI

Provides superior Fusarium and true-loose smut control

  • The two active ingredients in GEMINI™ combine to deliver the best available control of seed- and soil-borne Fusarium.
  • GEMINI also suppresses seedling blight and common root rot caused by Cochliobolus.
  • It has a time saving ready-to-use formulation that requires no dilution or additional dyes.

How it worksExpand
  • Wheat – GEMINI delivers unequalled suppression of Fusarium crown and root rot on wheat.
