PRIMTAL IMMUNOLOGICAL ACTIVATORS
THE NEW WEAPON IN THE ARMOURY TO HELP GROWERS FIGHT PESTS AND DISEASES
DEVELOPED BY ARTAL IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF CASTELLÓN
PRIMTAL IMMUNOLOGICAL ACTIVATORS
Primtal Immunological activators nourish and preserve the health of the crop in a way compatible with the environment and human beings.
Like humans, plants have an inbuilt immune system that is activated in response to attack by disease. In nature this enhanced immunity can be triggered by a number of stimuli for example by pathogens attacking a plant. Also some beneficial microbes can switch on the natural defences of plants. Certain stresses are also often chronologically linked, a preceding stress may be a “warning” cue of upcoming future stress e.g. the presence of insect eggs on leaves is a pre-cursor to insect attack. By priming the plant before an attack happens the response is faster and more intense. Artal Immunological Activators activate or prime these self defence mechanisms.

How does a plant fight off diseases?
Plants have a number of mechanisms to fight off or repel disease and Artal Immunological Activators activate multiple mechanisms.

|
CHEMICAL BARRIERS Repellence: Through the production of volatile compounds Antibiosis: Through the production of compounds detrimental to an attacking organism |
PHYSICAL BARRIERS Strengthening: Re-enforcing cell walls to prevent penetration by fungal hyphae Physiological: Reduced opening of stomata. Changes to trichomes (hairs) |
PRIMTAL FG
Primtal FG is an immunological activator containing plant metabolites that have been specifically selected to influence the secondary metabolism of plants in situations of stress due to fungal attack. |
PRIMTAL RS
Primtal RS is an immunological activator containing plant metabolite that have been specifically selected to prime a plant’s natural defences against mites. |
PRIMTAL WF
Primtal WF is an immunological activator containing plant metabolites that have been specifically selected to influence the secondary metabolism of plants in situations of stress due to sucking insects. |
