Diseases in crops and plants are caused by plant pathogenic microorganisms called fungi. Fungi are one of the major causes of crop loss worldwide. To manage these crop losses, fungicide usage has grown significantly over the years.
Fungicides are chemical compounds or (extracts of) biological organisms used to kill parasitic fungi or their spores. Fungi can cause serious damage to crops, resulting in critical losses of yield, quality, and profit. Fungicides based on their translocation mode in plant, can either be contact, translaminar or systemic. A SYSTEMIC fungicide is the one which is taken up by a plant and is then translocated within the plant system, it can there by protect the plant from infections and restrict/Control the further growth of existing fungal infection. Contact fungicides doesn’t enter the plant, but controls the fungi when it comes in contact with fungi during the application. Translaminar fungicides redistribute the fungicide from the upper, sprayed blue-leaf surface to the lower, unsprayed surface.

A SYSTEMIC fungicides is the one which is taken up by a plant and is then translocated within the plant system, it can there by protect the plant from infections and restrict/Control the further growth of exisitng infungal infection.
Ideally it is not recommended to tank mix the fungicides, Ask for compatablity details before the use of fungicide.
Fungicides are used to save the crop from damage caused by the fungal infections.
A systemic fungicides is translocated with the plant system before its acts while Contact fungicides doesn’t enter the plant, but controls the fungi when it comes in contact with fungi during the application.
No, if used as per recommendations
Yes, but tank mix is not recommended. Ask for compatability details before practice.
Yes, Generally it is recommended to give sufficient time for the plant to absorb the fungicide before applying fertilizer. Refer to product usage recommendation before use.
Ideally it is not recommended to tank mix the fungicides, Ask for compatablity details before the use of fungicide.
Yes, but early mornings or evenings are best time for application. Sufficient light, calm air can help in efficient application & reduce the drift losses by winds.
It is recommended to give sufficient time for the chemical to be absorbed by the plant. 4-5 hrs.
Yes, regular copper fungicides can be washed off if there is rain immediately. WG, SC any other advanced formulation have better rainfastness over WP formulations.
Using a specially designed equipment called sprayer. Use protective gear during spraying.
Fungicide controls the fungal infection through various modes of action. Refer product literature for more detaiuls.
Mancozeb is a multisite fungicide. It works by interfering in 6 different cellular processes of fungus.
4-5 hrs.
Fungicides work immediately after application, the results might take time to appear.
Yes, Fungicide is used for control fungal pests.
No, It is contact fungicide.
Fungicides are classified based on mode of action, chemical class, etc. refer to FRAC website for more details.
