Dual-Action Fungicide
DIMETHOMORPH 20% + FLUAZINAM 20% SC
Dual-action fungicide combining systemic and contact activity for superior control of oomycete pathogens. Provides excellent preventive protection, curative action, and resistance management benefits.
Active: Dimethomorph + Fluazinam
Formulation: SC (Suspension Concentrate)
Action: Preventive & Curative
Product Information
Mode of Action
Dimethomorph: Disrupts cell wall formation by inhibiting cellulose synthase in oomycetes.
Fluazinam: Acts as a multi-site contact fungicide by uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation (energy production).
This dual mechanism provides excellent preventive and knockdown activity.
Target Diseases
- Late Blight (Phytophthora infestans)
- Downy Mildew (Plasmopara viticola, Pseudoperonospora cubensis)
- Pythium species
Recommended Crops
| Crop | Disease | Application Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Potato, Tomato | Late Blight | Apply every 7–10 days. |
| Grapes | Downy Mildew | Apply every 7–10 days. |
| Cucurbits | Downy Mildew | Apply every 7–10 days. |
| Ornamentals | Pythium, Mildew | Apply preventively. |
Dosage Note: Specific dosage rates (ml/ha) are not provided in the general text. Please refer to the specific product label for precise application rates based on crop stage and local disease pressure.
Application Instructions
1. Timing
Apply preventively before disease onset or at the very first signs of infection. Early application ensures the multi-site contact action of Fluazinam is most effective.
2. Resistance Management
Best used in rotation with fungicides having different modes of action to manage resistance. The combination of a multi-site inhibitor (Fluazinam) helps protect the single-site inhibitor (Dimethomorph).
Safety Precautions
Warning: Wear personal protective equipment (gloves, mask, goggles). Fluazinam can be a skin sensitizer for some individuals; ensure skin is covered. Toxic to aquatic life.
