Product details
Conika Fungicide and Bactericide | Kasugamycin 5% + Copper Oxychloride 45% WP
A two-active crop disease product combining systemic kasugamycin with contact copper oxychloride. Match the crop and disease carefully, and keep harvest intervals separate from repeat-spray timing.
What it controls: The listed blast, anthracnose and bacterial disease uses, paired with rice, grapes or pomegranate.
When to use it: The manufacturer describes early disease-stage sprays and a preventive role, subject to the supplied label.
What to include: The correct crop-specific dose, enough water for coverage and the required waiting period before harvest.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🛡️Two complementary ingredients: Kasugamycin and copper oxychloride act in different ways within the same formulated product.
- 🌿Systemic plus surface activity: Kasugamycin supplies the systemic component; copper oxychloride acts by contact on treated surfaces.
- 🎯Specific disease uses: The crop table distinguishes rice blast from grape and pomegranate diseases, rather than treating all leaf spots alike.
- 🕒An early disease-management option: The manufacturer positions Conika for preventive protection and treatment at early symptoms. It does not repair tissue already destroyed.
- 🔄Supports planned rotation: Knowing both active ingredients helps you choose suitable treatments for later applications and manage resistance.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Conika has fungicidal and bactericidal activity for its specified uses. It is not a general cure for every bacterial or fungal problem, and it does not treat viral disease.
- Kasugamycin interrupts protein production: It acts at the start of protein synthesis, preventing susceptible disease organisms from making proteins they need.
- Copper acts at several sites: Copper oxychloride provides contact activity that disrupts several processes in susceptible organisms on treated surfaces.
- Together they support disease control: The two components complement one another when the correct disease is treated under the approved conditions.
The mixture does not eliminate resistance risk. Monitor the disease, follow crop-specific treatment limits and use suitable rotation advice.

Dosage & Application Guide
These are crop-specific spray programmes. The figures below come from an Indian government reference for this formulation, not a current Conika leaflet. Use them only where the supplied Conika label confirms the same programme. The original hectare rates are shown alongside the converted acre figures.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rice / paddy — leaf and neck blast | Approx. 283.3 g Original: 700 g/ha |
Approx. 151.8 L Original: 375 L/ha |
See note* | 26 days |
| Grapes — anthracnose / bacterial leaf spot | Approx. 303.5 g Original: 750 g/ha |
Approx. 161.9–404.7 L Original: 400–1000 L/ha |
See note* | 37 days |
| Pomegranate — listed diseases | See note* | Approx. 202.3–404.7 L Original: 500–1000 L/ha |
1 g/L Manufacturer: 0.1% |
10 days |
Pomegranate has a concentration-based recommendation: 0.1%, stated by Dhanuka as 1 g/L water. It is not a universal concentration for rice or grapes, and it is not converted here into a single fixed product amount per acre.
*Rice and grapes have no separate per-litre recommendation here. For pomegranate, measure the product at the stated concentration and use the spray volume permitted by the label.
The converted rates are approximately 283.3 g/acre for rice and 303.5 g/acre for grapes. Dhanuka lists rounded rates of 280 g/acre and 300 g/acre respectively. Follow the rate on your current pack label.
Manufacturer timing: rice starts at leaf-blast symptoms, with a second spray after 10–12 days or as required; grapes starts at symptoms and mentions a repeat after 15 days; pomegranate starts at disease symptoms. These are not substitutes for current label limits or for the PHIs of 26, 37 and 10 days respectively.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Confirm the disease: Distinguish fungal or bacterial symptoms from nutrient shortage, insects or other causes. Match the diagnosed problem to the crop-specific label.
- Plan around harvest: Check the last possible treatment date for the crop. A repeat-spray interval does not shorten the harvest waiting period.
- Use the correct dosing basis: Measure the formulated wettable powder by weight. Keep the pomegranate concentration separate from the area-based rice and grape records.
- Prepare and apply as directed: Follow the current label’s mixing, agitation, equipment and coverage directions. Avoid inhaling powder during handling.
- Do not add an unverified mixture: No blanket adjuvant or tank-mix approval is supplied. Check both labels and crop advice before combining products.
- Record and inspect: Record crop, disease, rate and date. Inspect disease development and follow label limits before another treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Conika only a fungicide?It combines fungicidal and bactericidal activity for the specified crop–disease uses. That does not mean it treats every plant disease.
2. Is the pomegranate 1 g/L rate suitable for grapes?No. It is a pomegranate-specific concentration statement. Grapes has its own area-based product and water reference.
3. How should I choose the correct dose?Use the crop-specific rate on your current pack label. Rice and grapes use an area-based rate; pomegranate uses a concentration of 1 g/L. Do not apply the pomegranate concentration to other crops.
4. Does a repeat after 15 days mean grapes can be harvested then?No. The formulation reference gives a 37-day grape PHI, counted from the last application. Repeat timing and harvest waiting periods are different.
5. Can I mix Conika with any other disease product?No general mixture is approved here. It already contains two active ingredients. Check the current labels and qualified advice for any proposed combination.
