How It Works: Mode of Action
Ethaboxam belongs to FRAC Group 22, target-site code B3: inhibition of tubulin polymerisation. Sumitomo also describes systemic and translaminar activity and effects on several stages of disease development.
-
Cell-development target: Ethaboxam inhibits tubulin polymerisation in susceptible pathogens.
-
Early infection stages: Sumitomo describes inhibition of spore germination and penetration.
-
Further disease spread: The manufacturer describes restriction of mycelial growth and suppression of sporulation.
A change of brand does not necessarily change the mode of action. Use label-compliant resistance-management guidance; this overview does not prescribe a mixture or rotation partner.
Recommended Crop & Disease Information
Sumitomo provides a potato application programme and separately describes activity against late blight and downy mildew. Use the supplied label to match the exact crop and disease; do not interpret the general downy-mildew description as a potato downy-mildew recommendation.
Use only the crop–disease combination on the supplied Derecho label. Do not extend these directions to early blight or to another crop.
Dosage & Application Guide
Application Requirements
Use only a complete programme from the supplied label for the intended crop or site and target. Keep product quantity, water volume, application method, timing and waiting periods together.
Before treatment, check the supplied label for the exact crop–disease use, harvest and re-entry intervals, application limits and preparation directions. Do not attach a waiting period or water volume from a different crop, formulation reference or source.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Read the complete directions: Use the supplied label and leaflet for the intended crop or site, target, product amount, water, method and timing before measuring or applying.
-
Keep the programme together: Use the matching crop-specific instructions for preparation, equipment, coverage and application limits. Do not combine instructions from different crops, sources or formulations.
-
Plan access and harvest: Follow the label’s harvest and re-entry intervals. A dry spray deposit or dry foliage alone does not establish safe entry.
-
Check any proposed mixture: Do not assume tank-mix or additive compatibility. Follow the exact labels and obtain product-specific technical advice before combining products.

No. Measure the area and use the paired product and water quantities with suitable calibration. A pack or tank size alone does not establish coverage.
