EXYLON METAZEB/HIGHLY EFFECTIVE SYSTEMIC AND CONTACT FUNGICIDE
जोड़ना
METAZEB
Metalaxyl 8% + Mancozeb 64% WP
Introduction
Metazeb is a highly effective systemic and contact fungicide developed by Exylon for the prevention and control of a wide range of fungal diseases in agricultural and horticultural crops. It contains Metalaxyl 8%, a systemic fungicide that is absorbed by the plant and moves through its tissues to stop fungal development from within, and Mancozeb 64%, a multi-site contact fungicide that forms a protective barrier on the plant surface, preventing fungal spores from germinating.
This dual-action formulation provides both preventive and curative protection, ensuring healthier crops, improved plant vigor, reduced disease incidence, and higher yields. Matazeb is suitable for use in vegetables, fruits, cereals, cash crops, and plantation crops, making it an excellent choice for modern Integrated Disease Management (IDM) programs.
Composition
Metalaxyl – 8%
Metalaxyl is a systemic fungicide belonging to the phenylamide group. After spraying, it is quickly absorbed by leaves, stems, and roots and moves throughout the plant. It inhibits RNA synthesis in fungal pathogens, preventing their growth and reproduction.
Mancozeb – 64%
Mancozeb is a broad-spectrum contact fungicide belonging to the dithiocarbamate group. It creates a protective layer on the plant surface, preventing fungal spores from germinating. Since it acts on multiple enzyme systems, it reduces the risk of fungicide resistance.
