Beam - Tricyclazole 75% WP - Corteva Agriscience
Beam Fungicide by Corteva Agriscience
Tricyclazole 75% WP for blast management in rice.
What it controls: Rice blast; identify the disease before choosing a treatment.
When to use it: Use preventively within a rice disease-management programme.
What to include: Use the supplied Beam crop programme; the formulation-reference rate and 30-day harvest interval below are not a substitute for its directions.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- π―Rice-blast control: Targets the blast disease that threatens rice, rather than treating every leaf spot as the same problem.
- π‘οΈPreventive protection: Tricyclazole is suited to preventive blast management, helping limit infection before disease becomes established.
- πΏSystemic movement: The active ingredient can move within the plant, supporting protection beyond its initial point of uptake.
- πLeaf and root uptake: Tricyclazole can be absorbed through rice leaves and roots; this describes its movement, not permission for an unlisted drench or seed treatment.
- πFits a planned rotation: Its melanin-targeting action offers a distinct option in a programme that alternates appropriate fungicide classes.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Tricyclazole acts on the rice-blast fungus during the infection process.
- Melanin pathway: The fungus needs normal melanin formation to develop an effective infection structure.
- Reductase inhibition: Tricyclazole interferes with the reductase step in melanin biosynthesis.
- Reduced penetration: Disrupting this process limits the fungusβs ability to penetrate and establish infection in rice.
Use preventively and include other suitable fungicide classes in the disease-management programme. Changing between brands containing tricyclazole is not a change of mode of action.

Dosage & Application Guide
Registered Tricyclazole 75% WP formulation reference for rice blast, not verified current Beam-pack directions. The supplied Beam label and leaflet control use. Approximate acre equivalents are shown beside the original hectare rates.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paddy (rice) | Approx. 121β162 300β400 g/ha |
Approx. 202 500 L/ha |
See note* | 30 days |
Use the product dose and water volume together for the measured field area.
*No independent grams-per-litre recommendation is supplied. Do not treat an acre rate as a tank concentration.
The 30-day waiting period runs from the last application to harvest.
The numerical formulation reference does not authorise a spray, seed treatment or drench. The supplied Beam label must establish the application route and complete programme.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Plan preventive blast control; follow the supplied Beam leaflet for the crop stage and repeat interval.
- Application method: Follow the application method and equipment specified on your supplied Beam label; do not infer a method from this formulation reference.
- Mixing and restrictions: Follow the supplied WP mixing directions. Do not assume that every pesticide or adjuvant is compatible.
- Programme management: Do not rely on repeated tricyclazole treatments as the only disease-control approach; follow the labelβs resistance-management limits.
