Syngenta Acoreli Fungicide (Propineb 70% WP)
The "Green Shield" for Your Crops: Advanced Protection + Zinc Nutrition
Syngenta Acoreli is a high-performance contact fungicide designed to protect your crops from damaging fungal diseases like Scab, Blight, and Leaf Spots. Unlike ordinary fungicides, Acoreli does two jobs at once: it stops fungus and feeds your plants.
Powered by Propineb (70% WP), this formulation releases bioavailable Zinc ($Zn^{2+}$) onto your leaves. This results in a visible "Greening Effect," ensuring your plants stay healthy, lush, and productive even under stress. It is the perfect tank-mix partner for resistance management.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Broad-Spectrum Defense: Effectively controls Downy Mildew, Early & Late Blight, and Apple Scab across multiple crops.
- ?️Resistance Fighter: Uses a Multi-site Mode of Action (FRAC M3), making it nearly impossible for fungus to develop resistance.
- ⏳Long-Lasting Stickiness: Its unique polymer structure sticks to leaves better than standard powders, providing extended protection.
- ?️Superior Rainfastness: Once dried (1-4 hours), it forms a film that resists washing off during light rains or irrigation.
- ?The "Green Effect": Contains ~20% Metallic Zinc which boosts photosynthesis, leading to greener leaves and better quality produce.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Acoreli acts as a preventative barrier. It must be present on the leaf surface before the disease attacks.
- Contact Inhibition: When fungal spores land on a treated leaf, they come into contact with Propineb particles.
- Energy Blockade: The active ingredient disrupts the fungus's respiration (breathing) process at multiple sites, effectively starving the spore of energy (ATP).
- Germination Stop: Without energy, the spore cannot germinate or penetrate the leaf, preventing infection entirely.
Simultaneously, the Zinc is absorbed by the plant surface, boosting enzymes responsible for greenness and stress tolerance.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Apple | Apple Scab, Premature Leaf Fall |
| Potato & Tomato | Early Blight, Late Blight |
| Rice | Brown Leaf Spot, Narrow Leaf Spot |
| Grapes & Pomegranate | Downy Mildew, Fruit Spots |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apple | 600 - 800 g | 200+ | 3.0 g | 30 |
| Potato / Tomato | 600 - 800 g | 200 | 3.0 - 4.0 g | 15 |
| Rice | 600 - 800 g | 200 | 3.0 - 4.0 g | 30 |
| Grapes | N/A (Volume based) | As required | 2.0 - 3.0 g | 40-60 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply preventatively (before disease spots appear). Repeat every 7-10 days depending on weather.
- Mixing: Premix the required quantity in a small amount of water to form a slurry before adding to the main tank. Compatible with Syngenta Isabion for added stress recovery. Do NOT mix with alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture.
- Coverage: Acoreli is a contact fungicide, so full coverage is critical. Ensure both sides of the leaves are sprayed until "run-off."
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How is Acoreli different from Mancozeb?
Acoreli contains Propineb (rich in Zinc) while Mancozeb contains Manganese and Zinc. Acoreli is often safer on sensitive flowering stages and provides a stronger "greening" effect.
2. Can I use Acoreli to cure a disease that has already spread?
Acoreli is primarily a preventative (prophylactic) fungicide. If the disease is already severe, mix Acoreli with a curative systemic fungicide for "kick-back" action.
3. Is it rainfast?
Yes, Acoreli has excellent sticking properties. Once the spray dries completely on the leaf (1-4 hours), it resists wash-off from light rain.
4. Can I mix Acoreli with Isabion or Quantis?
Yes, Acoreli is compatible with Syngenta biostimulants like Isabion. This combination protects the crop from disease while boosting growth and stress recovery.
5. Why is Zinc important in this fungicide?
The Zinc in Acoreli helps in chlorophyll production and enzyme activity. This corrects hidden zinc deficiencies, making leaves greener and improving fruit finish (skin quality).
