Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
[Image of fungal spore inhibition]
Folio Gold uses a "Double-Lock" technology to stop fungus at two different stages of its life cycle:
- Internal Cure (Metalaxyl-M): This component is absorbed by the leaves and moves inside the plant. It stops the fungus from growing mycelium and creating feeding structures, effectively "curing" the plant from within.
- External Shield (Chlorothalonil): This sticks to the leaf surface and forms a protective layer. It prevents fungal spores from germinating or entering the leaf.
- Resistance Management: Because it attacks the fungus in two different ways, it is very difficult for the disease to develop resistance to Folio Gold.

How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Potato / Tomato | 300 - 400 ml | 200 Litres | 1.5 - 2.0 ml | 14 Days |

| Cucurbits | 400 - 500 ml | 200 Litres | 2.0 - 2.5 ml | 14 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting to ensure food safety.
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Start spraying preventively 25–35 days after planting or immediately when you see the first symptoms of blight.
- Mixing: Always perform a "Jar Test" before mixing with other chemicals. Do NOT mix with alkaline products like Lime Sulfur or Bordeaux Mixture.
- Coverage: Use sufficient water (minimum 200L/acre) to ensure the leaves are wet to the point of run-off.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not graze livestock in treated areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Folio Gold curative or preventive?
It is both. Metalaxyl-M cures early-stage infections from inside, while Chlorothalonil prevents new spores from attacking from the outside.

Yes. While Metalaxyl-M targets Late Blight, the Chlorothalonil component is highly effective against Early Blight and Leaf Spots.
3. What if it rains after spraying?
Folio Gold is rainfast in 1 hour. If it rains 60 minutes after application, you do not need to re-spray.
4. Can I mix it with insecticides?
It is generally compatible with most common insecticides. However, avoid mixing with highly alkaline products.
5. What is the cost per acre?
At standard dosage, the cost is approximately ₹800 per acre, serving as excellent insurance against total crop loss.
