About Captan 50% WP / 75% WS

Captan 50% WP (Wettable Powder) and 75% WS (Water-dispersible Powder for Slurry Seed Treatment) are broad-spectrum, non-systemic protective and curative fungicides, primarily used to combat fungal infections in fruits, vegetables, and ornamental crops. Its microfine formulation ensures excellent coverage and it acts as both a seed-dresser and a foliar spray.

Agriculture and Key Benefits

Broad-Spectrum Control: Effective against a wide variety of fungal diseases, including early and late blight, downy mildew, brown rot, damping-off, and leaf spots.
Preventative & Curative Action: While primarily used as a preventative, it also offers curative action against existing fungal growth.
Disease Management: Captan is used to protect against single-site and systemic fungicides (such as DMIs, strobilurins, SDHIs) from excessive selection pressures, making it excellent for resistance management in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs.
Versatile Application: Suitable for foliar spraying, soil treatment, and seed dressing.
Safe and Compatible: Fits IPM programs as it is safe for beneficial insects, low in phyto-tox, and has a favorable toxicity profile.
Rain-Fastness: It is rain-fast within 2 hours of application

Targets and Crops

Fruits: Apple (scab), Cherry (brown rot), Grapes (downy mildew), and other stone fruits.
Vegetables: Potato and Tomato (early and late blight).
Ornamentals: Damping-off control in nurseries.
Seed Treatment: Used for controlling seed-borne diseases and soil-borne pathogens.

Effective Control of Fungal Diseases

Captan 50% WP / 75% WS provides powerful protection against a spectrum of fungal threats, including scab, anthracnose, and leaf spot.

Its effectiveness is trusted across various agricultural settings, adding value to growers and exporters alike.

Flexible Formulations and Easy Application

Available as both Wettable Powder (WP) and Water Soluble (WS) formulations, Captan adapts to your specific spraying equipment and crop care routines. The WP variant is easily dispersible in water, while the WS is fully soluble, ensuring uniform application and optimal coverage on foliage, fruits, and flowers.
