About Dodine 40% SC / 65% WP
dine (available as 40% Suspension Concentrate - SC and 65% Wettable Powder - WP) is a broad-spectrum, contact fungicide primarily used to manage fungal diseases in high-value fruit orchards and vegetable crops. It works by disrupting the cell membranes of fungi, causing leakage of cellular contents, and inhibiting spore germination. It is particularly known for its curative and protective actions, especially against Apple Scab.
Key Agricultural and Pesticide Benefits
Broad-Spectrum Disease Control: Effective against a wide range of diseases including Apple/Pear Scab (Venturia inaequalis), Cherry Leaf Spot, Brown Rot, Alternaria leaf blight, Premature leaf fall, and Sooty Blotch.
Dual-Action Functionality: Acts primarily as a protectant (forming a barrier on the surface) but also provides early curative (therapeutic) action, helping to treat infections that have just begun (within 48 hours in some cases).
Resistance Management (FRAC M7): As a member of the guanidine group, Dodine has a unique mode of action compared to many triazoles and strobilurins. It is excellent for use in rotation programs to manage the development of fungicide resistance.
High Rainfastness: Dodine quickly adheres to the plant tissue, making it less susceptible to being washed off by rain shortly after application.
Suitability for Cool-Start Programs: It performs effectively in low temperatures, making it ideal for early-season applications (e.g., green tip to petal fall in apple trees).
Improved Fruit Quality and Yield: By preventing leaf drop and fruit blemishes, Dodine supports healthier plant development, resulting in higher quality, marketable produce.
Formulation Specifics
Dodine 65% WP (Wettable Powder): Often used for intense, broad-spectrum control in high-pressure areas (e.g., apple scab at 200g per 200-litre water).
Dodine 40% SC (Suspension Concentrate): A liquid formulation that offers easier mixing, rapid wetting, and lower foaming, commonly used for comprehensive surface coverage.
