Cymoxanil 8% + Mancozeb 64% WP (Wettable Powder) is a highly effective, broad-spectrum, dual-action fungicide used extensively in agriculture, particularly for controlling oomycete fungi like downy mildew and late blight. It combines the systemic, curative action of Cymoxanil with the protective, contact action of Mancozeb to provide comprehensive disease management.
Here are the key agricultural benefits of this combination:
1. Dual-Action Protection (Systemic + Contact)
Systemic Action (Cymoxanil 8%): Rapidly penetrates plant tissues and moves through them, killing the fungus from within and providing curative ("kick-back") action even after infection has started.
Contact Action (Mancozeb 64%): Remains on the leaf surface, forming a protective barrier that inhibits spore germination, preventing new infections.
Anti-sporulant Activity: It disrupts the development of spores, limiting the spread of the disease within the field.
2. Broad-Spectrum Disease Control
This combination is highly effective against a wide range of, but not limited to, the following diseases:
Late Blight: Tomatoes, Potatoes.
Downy Mildew: Grapes, Cucumbers, Watermelon.
Rust & Blights: Various fungal rusts, Alternaria blight, leaf spots.
Foot Rot/Gummosis: Citrus crops.
3. Key Benefits for Crop Health & Yield
Prevents Resistance Management: Because it has a multi-site mode of action (Mancozeb) combined with a specific action (Cymoxanil), it is excellent for managing fungicide resistance, making it suitable for IPM (Integrated Pest Management) programs.
Rainfastness: The formulation is designed to hold onto the plant, ensuring that the fungicide continues to protect the crop even after rain occurs, often within 2-3 hours of application.
Long-Lasting Protection: Provides prolonged residual control, which reduces the need for frequent re-application.
Enhanced Crop Quality: By reducing severe disease damage, it helps maintain plant health, resulting in higher yield and better produce quality.
Nutritional Support: Some formulations contain Zinc and Manganese (components of Mancozeb), which help in improving overall plant nutrition.
4. Application Details
Target Crops: Grapes, Potatoes, Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Citrus, Onion, and other vegetables.
Dosage: Generally, 600-800 grams per acre or 1-2 grams per litre of water, depending on the severity of the infection and the crop.
Formulation: Wettable Powder (WP) which mixes easily with water.
Important Notes:
Restrictions: Use of this product is restricted in certain areas (e.g., Kerala State in India).
