Hazard alerts
The following Pesticide Hazard Tricolour (PHT) alerts are based on the data in the tables below. An absence of an alert does not imply the substance has no implications for human health, biodiversity or the environment but just that we do not have the data to form a judgement. The alerts for Highly Hazardous Pesticides (HHPs) are based on applying the FAO/WHO (Type 1) and the PAN (Type II) criteria to PPDB data. Further details on the HHP indicators are given in the tables below. Neither the PHT nor the HHP hazard alerts take account of usage patterns or exposure, thus they do not represent risk.
PHT: Environmental fate
PHT: Ecotoxicity
PHT: Human health

Mode of action
Preventative rather than curative. Substance improves plants natural defences. Non-systemic but some translaminar effects. Inhibits spore germination and reduces conidia formation
Substance source
An organic extract from the giant knotweed plant (Reynoutria sachalinensis)
Uses
Crop protection - greenhouses
Farming system suitability
Suitable for use in all farming systems where approved for use in that country
1987 patented BASF, 1991, first registered Germany
Example manufacturers & suppliers of products using this active now or historically
BASF AG
KHH BioSci
BIOFA Bio-farming Systems
Marrone Bio Inovations
Example products using this active
Formulation and application details
Formulated as a suspension concentrate composed of 5% ethanolic extract in a calcium nitrate solution
Commercial production
Extracted from dried plants grown in commercial plantations using alcohol and partially refined to formulate the end product
Impact on climate of production and use
Data for specific plant extracts is scarce. However, from publicly available data the carbon footprint of plant extracts has been estimated at between 1.0 and 4.0 kg CO₂e per kg of extract. This depends on the plant content, agricultural practices and processing methods used.
