BASF Acrobat Complete: Product Overview
BASF Acrobat Complete is a water-dispersible granule fungicide containing Metiram 44% + Dimethomorph 9% WG. Its verified Indian uses are downy mildew in grapes and cucumber.
Acrobat Complete combines two complementary fungicide modes of action. Metiram is a multi-site contact fungicide in FRAC Group M03. Dimethomorph is a carboxylic acid amide fungicide in FRAC Group 40, a group associated with inhibition of cellulose synthase and disruption of oomycete cell-wall deposition. BASF introduced Acrobat Complete in India as a beginning-of-season option for grape downy mildew and as part of a resistance-conscious disease program.
The registered formulation dose is 2.5 kg/ha for both listed crops, but the water volume and pre-harvest interval differ by crop. The hectare-based values below should not be replaced by a universal grams-per-litre or per-acre claim.
