Ayaan

• Two complementary modes of action: FRAC Group 11 and Group 3 activities act at different fungal target sites.
• Three verified paddy diseases: the registered use covers sheath blight, leaf blast and neck blast.
• Practical WG formulation: water-dispersible granules are designed to be dispersed in spray water before foliar application.
• Clear hectare recommendation: the published Indian use specifies the formulation rate, water volume and pre-harvest interval.
• Resistance-aware positioning: the product can be placed in a label-compliant programme that rotates to a fungicide from a different FRAC group.

1. Kresoxim-methyl — FRAC 11: inhibits respiration at the Qo site of fungal mitochondrial complex III. This disrupts energy production and helps prevent processes such as spore germination.
2. Hexaconazole — FRAC 3: is a demethylation-inhibiting triazole that interferes with C14-demethylation during fungal sterol biosynthesis, affecting normal fungal membrane development.
3. Combined action: the premix targets the pathogen through two biochemical sites. Nevertheless, repeated use of the same Group 11 + 3 premix can still select resistant populations, so label-compliant rotation remains important.

The label rate per hectare governs use. The acre figures below are rounded metric conversions for convenient planning; calibrate the sprayer and follow the current pack label.

PHI means pre-harvest interval: the minimum period between the last application and harvest. The official hectare values are 500 g formulation and 500 L water.

• Confirm the field problem: distinguish blast or sheath blight symptoms from nutrient disorders, bacterial problems and spray injury before treating.
• Measure accurately: weigh the formulation and use calibrated equipment. Do not increase, reduce or repeat the dose outside label directions.
• Prepare an even dispersion: add the measured WG formulation to clean water as directed on the pack, maintain agitation and spray the prepared liquid without unnecessary delay.
• Obtain uniform coverage: use the specified water volume and cover the crop evenly. Avoid application during rain, strong wind or conditions that cause drift.
• Rotate modes of action: for a later spray, select a separately registered rice fungicide from a different FRAC group. A recommendation shown elsewhere on this page is an alternative for rotation, not a tank-mix instruction.

Read the complete current label and leaflet before opening the pack. Wear the personal protective equipment stated on that label, prevent contact with skin and eyes, and avoid breathing spray mist. Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling or spraying. Keep people and animals away from the treatment area as directed. Prevent drift and do not contaminate ponds, canals, wells, feed or food. Wash exposed skin, clothing and equipment after use. Store the product tightly closed in its original labelled container, locked away from children, food, feed and household materials. If exposure or illness occurs, seek medical attention promptly and take the product label with you. Follow label first-aid and disposal instructions; do not reuse the empty container.

Agricultural use directions can change. Always read and follow the current official product label and local regulatory instructions. The pack label overrides this page. Use only on the labelled crop, disease, dose, timing and safety conditions. Mana Agri Mart does not recommend off-label use.
