Dal Cin’s agriculture product range is compatible with the most modern approaches to integrated and organic farming, in respect of the environment and the operator.
The Agrospecialties, free from synthetic additives and processing aids, guarantee residue-free formulations, applicable up to harvest and without interference in must fermentation processes.
“Rock powder” obtained from the physico-mechanical milling of quarry-extracted zeolite, of high purity and high clinoptilolite content (≥ 90%). The product is micronised to a level of fineness that prevents any clogging, thus protecting filters and atomiser nozzles. Zeolite DC coats leaves and fruit with a thin surface layer, particularly resistant to wash-off, which acts as a physical barrier against insect spread.
Tannino DC is a liquid “whole chestnut extract” obtained exclusively through physical processes, which improves plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stress. Rich in polyphenols and organic acids, it provides an anti-laccase action on ripening grapes, mild acidification of soil pH with improvement of root activity, a disruptive action against nematodes, fungi, viruses and bacteria, and exerts an antioxidant activity and a regulator of cellular and phytohormonal metabolism.
Solfobenton is a strongly hygroscopic mineral compound with a marked dehydrating action. On treated grapes it promotes rapid drying, limiting damage from hail wounds and berry splitting caused by mechanical harvesting. The release of sulphur dioxide enables the inactivation of oxidative enzymes and the control of the proliferation of yeasts, bacteria and fungi.
Stabilised solution of chitosan hydrochloride, an organic polymer of plant origin derived from Aspergillus niger, a highly reactive polycationic matrix. It guarantees high foliar absorption and high biological activity. Of fungal origin, it does not contain the allergens typical of shrimp-derived chitosan. Chitosano DC triggers a series of biochemical defence reactions; the treatments stimulate plant tissues to counteract fungal colonisation.
“Rock powder” obtained from the physico-mechanical milling of natural clays with a high kaolinite content (>90%). Caolino DC is a very fine, high-purity, non-calcined kaolin that forms a thin white film on leaves and fruit, resistant to wash-off and reflective of solar radiation. The high level of micronisation guarantees uniform distribution, with no residues in the tank or atomiser nozzles.
100% natural bentonite extracted from quarry using physical processes, typically rich in montmorillonite. Grape clusters treated with Biobenton dry very quickly, thus limiting the damage from berry splitting caused by unwanted agents and hail. The water-retaining capacity reduces excess moisture on the plant surface, counteracting the development of pathogenic fungi on grape clusters during the ripening phase.
