MODE OF ACTION:-

It is a broad-spectrum fungicide with protective action. The product is fungitoxic when exposed to air. It is converted to an isothiocyanate, which inactivates the sulphahydral (SH) groups in enzymes of fungi. Some times the metals are exchanged between mancozeb and enzymes of fungi, thus causing disturbance in fungal enzyme functioning.

FEATURES & BENEFITS:-

Broad spectrum fungicide, which controls large number of diseases (with its multisite action), caused by phycomycetes, advance fungi and other group of fungi infecting many crops.

 Used for foliar sprays, nursery drenching and seed treatments in many crops.

It can be used repeatedly, without any danger of resistance development, for number of years.

Best fungicide to be used along with systemic fungicides to prevent and/or delay resistance development.

In addition to disease control, it also provides manganese and zinc in traces to crop, there by keeps plants green and healthy.

It is quite safe to natural enemies and the environment. Thus part of Integrated Disease Management.

As compared to other fungicides, it is less expensive in the long run on account of nutritional benefits and superior crop protection, which results in high yields and better quality.
