Use for
Use for
Use Noli preventively for the biological control of Botrytis and Monilinia. Noli can be used as recurrent application but the product is at its best in an integrated program. Noli can be used even before the day of harvest and has (in contrast to chemical applications) no risk for resistances and residues.
Diseases
Grey mold (Botryotinia fuckeliana formerly known as Botrytis cinerea) and brown rot of fruits (Monilinia spp.).
Crops
Soft fruit (including strawberry), stone fruit, table and wine grapes.
How it works
How it works
Mode of action
The main mode of action is the preventive suppression of the target diseases by competition for nutrients and space. The rapidly growing yeast takes up nutrients available for target diseases and forms a natural protective biofilm on the surface of the fruit.

Directions for use
Directions for use
Preparation
- Make sure the spray tank is cleaned before use
- Fill the tank with half the required amount of water
- Take the required amount of Noli and mix 1:10 in a bucket with water to suspend
- Stir well
- Let rest for 10 minutes
- Stir once again
- Add the remaining amount of water
- Spray immediately after preparation
- Keep the temperature in the spray tank below 30°C/86°F, higher temperatures will inactivate Noli
Application
- Noli can be applied with regular spray equipment
- Do not spray on harvest day
- Stir continuously during application to prevent suspended cells from settling at the bottom of the spray tank
- Direct spray onto fruits/flowers; spray to runoff
Dosage
- The dosage of Noli depends on the crop and disease situation and should always be adjusted to the particular conditions
- Apply 1-2 kg/ha in a spray volume normal for the particular crop
- Always check the product label for more information
Timing
- The exact spray protocol depends on the disease pressure and crop. In general the last two chemical fungicide sprays can be replaced by Noli in order to get most benefit from a post-harvest effect
- For organic fruit, Noli should be used from blossom till harvest to achieve good efficacy
- Consult a Koppert advisor or a recognized distributor of Koppert products for advice on the best strategy for your situation
Environmental conditions
- Apply preferably in the evening; avoid application during sunny conditions
- Metschnikowia fructicola is actively developing in a broad temperature range
- Optimal growth at 20-28°C/68-82°F
