supplied label quantities and harvest interval.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌿 Systemic activity: Acts within treated
plant tissue rather than only at the exposed spray surface.
-
🛡️ Preventive protection: Supports a
rice-blast programme before extensive disease development.
-
⏱️ Early curative activity: Helps limit
developing blast infection when treatment begins early.
-
🎯 Three blast locations: Addresses the leaf,
node and neck forms of the listed rice-blast disease.

How It Works: Mode of Action
-
Movement within treated tissue: Systemic activity allows the treatment to act within the plant. Even
foliage coverage remains important for the application.
-
Fungal membrane processes affected: Isoprothiolane interferes with phospholipid biosynthesis, a process
involved in normal fungal cell membranes. It belongs to the Group 6 dithiolane fungicides, not the Group 3
triazoles.
-
Blast development limited: Protective
and early curative activity help prevent or check developing
blast. This does not restore leaves or panicles that are already badly damaged.
Compare mode-of-action groups as well as brand names when planning resistance management. Another
isoprothiolane product remains FRAC Group 6. Follow the current crop label and qualified local advice for any later
treatment.
Target Crops & Diseases

Use the rice-blast pairing to select treatment. Sheath blight, bacterial leaf blight, insect injury and weed
problems require their own diagnosis and suitable control programme.
Dosage & Application Guide
Application Requirements
Plan Audicia as a preventive or early-disease foliar treatment in rice. Measure product and water for the same
treated area using the supplied Audicia label, and check the required interval between the last application and harvest before
mixing.
For preparation, add the measured product to a small quantity of water and stir well with a wooden stick. Add
the remaining required water while continuing to agitate. Apply uniformly over the foliage with a knapsack sprayer.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Confirm the diagnosis: Inspect the crop and identify blast before choosing treatment. Check the leaf, node or neck symptoms rather
than treating every rice disorder alike.
-
Act early: Use the preventive or beginning-of-disease application window; do not wait for widespread damage in the expectation that
a curative treatment will repair it.
-
Plan quantity and harvest together: Use the current Audicia pack for the product quantity, water volume and harvest restriction for
the treated area.
-
Mix in stages: Start with a small quantity of water, stir with a wooden stick and add the remaining water under agitation. Do not
mix by hand.
-
Cover foliage evenly: Use a knapsack sprayer and maintain uniform coverage, following the pack for equipment, weather and
protective clothing.
-
Review disease development: Check the crop before further treatment and follow the supplied repeat-use directions and
resistance-management advice.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Audicia an insecticide?
No. It is an isoprothiolane fungicide for rice blast. The crop-disease use includes leaf, node and neck
blast, not stem borer, planthoppers or weeds.
2. When should I start a rice-blast treatment?
Audicia is suited to preventive use or the very beginning of disease. Inspect the crop promptly and plan
treatment within the current label’s application and harvest restrictions.
3. Can curative action repair badly damaged rice?
No. Curative activity concerns developing infection; it does not promise recovery of tissue already badly
damaged. Systemic activity also does not replace correct timing or even spray coverage.
4. How should the spray mixture be prepared?
Use the product and water quantities on the supplied Audicia label. Mix the measured product first with a
small amount of water, stir well with a wooden stick, then add the remaining water while continuing to agitate. Spray the foliage
uniformly.
5. Can I mix Audicia with another product or just switch brands?
A shared crop use does not establish tank compatibility. Use a mixture only when both current product
directions permit it. For resistance management, compare action groups: another isoprothiolane brand is still FRAC Group 6.
