Product details
Galileo Sensa by Corteva Agriscience
A preventive fungicide programme for rice blast and specified chilli diseases.
What it controls: Leaf and neck blast in rice; anthracnose, wet rot and powdery mildew in chilli.
When to use it: Apply preventively. Rice and chilli have different timing, repeat limits and harvest intervals.
What to include: Use the matching crop programme, clean water and the protective equipment specified on the pack.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌾Protect rice from blast: Controls the listed leaf and neck blast diseases that threaten rice foliage and panicles.
-
🌶️Cover three chilli diseases: Targets anthracnose, wet rot and powdery mildew within the stated chilli programme.
-
🛡️Act before disease builds: Preventive application helps protect the crop before disease becomes well established.
-
🍃Movement within leaves: Systemic and translaminar redistribution helps the fungicide reach treated plant tissues.
-
🔄Two complementary actions: Combines disruption of fungal respiration with inhibition of melanin formation in the rice blast fungus.

How It Works: Mode of Action
-
Energy disruption: Picoxystrobin inhibits mitochondrial respiration, reducing the energy available to susceptible fungi.
-
Block penetration: Tricyclazole inhibits melanin formation used by the rice blast fungus to penetrate the plant.
-
Protect treated tissues: Plant uptake and redistribution support preventive protection; uniform spray coverage is still important.
Alternate with effective products from a different mode-of-action group as part of a crop-specific resistance-management programme.

Dosage & Application Guide
Numerical product and water rates, disease thresholds, repeat intervals, application ceilings and harvest directions are withheld until the complete current branded programme is confirmed for the exact crop. The reviewed crop handbills do not establish the matching harvest intervals; generic formulation-registration values must not be attached automatically to a branded treatment recipe.
Rice and chilli retain separate preventive programmes. For rice, confirm the early leaf-blast condition or the pre-panicle-emergence neck-blast timing, and any conditional milk-stage follow-up. For chilli, the manufacturer describes preventive use as fruits begin turning red. Confirm all rates, carrier water, repeat conditions, application limits, access and harvest intervals together before use.
Do not use in fields where rice and fish are raised together. For export chilli, obtain destination-specific residue guidance before use; the manufacturer’s handbill flags an MRL limitation.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Foliar spray: Use the product and water amounts specified by the matching supplied label and apply as a foliar spray with even crop coverage.
-
Preventive use: Do not wait for severe disease. Follow the separate preventive rice or chilli stage specified on the matching label, not one common schedule.
-
Harvest planning: Confirm and observe the crop-specific interval between the final treatment and harvest on the supplied Galileo Sensa label; do not transfer a generic formulation reference automatically.
-
Repeat limits: Follow the crop-specific application ceiling and any repeat-treatment conditions on the matching supplied label.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which diseases does Galileo Sensa control?
It covers leaf and neck blast in rice, and anthracnose, wet rot and powdery mildew in chilli.
What is the per-acre programme?
A complete verified branded programme is not reproduced here. Confirm the product amount, carrier water, preventive stage, repeat conditions, application ceiling, access and harvest intervals together for the exact crop.
When should I spray rice?
Use preventively at the labelled early leaf-blast condition or before panicle emergence for neck blast. Any follow-up at the milk stage must follow the matching label’s interval and application ceiling.
How often can I apply it?
Rice and chilli have different crop-specific application ceilings. Follow the matching supplied label; do not assume the same repeat schedule or maximum for both.
Can I use it in rice–fish farming?
No. The rice handbill specifically excludes fields where fish farming and rice cultivation take place together.
