IPL Ziram-80 - Ziram 80% WP - India Pesticides Limited
IPL Ziram-80 Fungicide by India Pesticides Limited
Ziram 80% wettable powder with multi-site contact activity. The crop information below distinguishes the company’s historical product scope from current Indian formulation references; it is not a substitute for the supplied IPL label.
Composition: Ziram 80% WP, not the separate Ziram-27 SC product.
Activity: FRAC M 03 multi-site contact fungicide.
Before use: Match the intended crop and disease to the current IPL label.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🛡️Contact protection: Ziram acts at treated surfaces rather than providing systemic movement.
- 🔬Multi-site activity: Its FRAC M 03 classification distinguishes it from single-site fungicides.
- 🍎Fruit-crop context: The company’s historical scope includes apple and grape.
- 🥔Vegetable-crop context: Potato, tomato and bean appear in historical company information; bean directions remain unverified.
- 📋Clear formulation choice: The 80% wettable powder is identified separately from the liquid 27% SC.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Ziram belongs to the multi-site contact fungicides in FRAC Group M 03. This describes the active ingredient, not a guarantee of performance on every crop or disease.
- Contact action: Protection depends on the plant surfaces reached by the label-authorised treatment.
- Multiple sites: Ziram affects more than one site in susceptible fungi rather than a single specific target.
- Programme fit: Use the exact crop-label directions within a locally appropriate disease-management programme.
Do not treat ziram as systemic, rainproof or universally compatible. Multi-site activity does not justify repeated unplanned applications.
Target Crops & Diseases
India Pesticides Limited’s 2021 prospectus names grape, apple, bean, potato and tomato for Ziram-80, but its disease list is not paired crop by crop. The pairings below are current CIBRC formulation references for ziram 80% WP, not a verified current IPL label.
| Crop | Target Disease(s) |
|---|---|
| Grape |
|
| Apple |
|
| Potato |
|
| Tomato |
|
| Bean |
|
The historical company disease list is downy mildew, anthracnose, scab and early blight; it does not establish that every disease applies to every named crop. No operational bean recommendation is made.
Dosage & Application Guide
Reference only: the following paired rates, water volumes and waiting periods are from CIBRC’s 30 September 2026 major-use compilation for ziram 80% WP. They are not confirmed current IPL Ziram-80 directions. Verify the supplied label before selecting any treatment.
Formulation Reference Rates & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop / target | Product / ha | Water / ha | Approx. / acre | PHI (days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grape: mildew | 1.5–2 kg | 750–1,000 L | 607–809 g | Not stated |
| Grape: anthracnose | 1.5–2 kg | 750–1,000 L | 607–809 g | Not stated |
| Apple: scab | 1.5–2 kg | 750–1,000 L | 607–809 g | 21 |
| Potato: early blight | 1.5–2 kg | 750–1,000 L | 607–809 g | 3 |
| Tomato: early blight | 1.5–2 kg | 750–1,000 L | 607–809 g | 3 |
| Bean | Held | Held | Held | Held |
Grape “mildew” means downy mildew only. Each row retains its own disease pairing. Approximate acre product quantities are mathematical conversions, not additional brand recommendations; reference water converts to approximately 304–405 L/acre.
A dash in the government grape waiting-period entry does not mean zero days. Confirm grape PHI and all current IPL crop approvals, rates, water volumes and application methods on the supplied label. Bean has no matching row in the 2026 formulation reference.
No per-litre or tank dose is inferred. Timing, application route, repeat interval, maximum treatments, rainfast period, re-entry period and mixtures remain subject to the exact current IPL label. Do not substitute a regional orchard concentration for these hectare references.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Check the pack first: Verify IPL Ziram-80, ziram 80% WP, crop and disease before planning treatment.
- Confirm the method: Obtain the supplied leaflet’s application route, equipment and timing; the reference table alone is not a spray programme.
- Keep measurements separate: Use only the label’s product and water units; do not borrow doses from Ziram-27 or another brand.
- Protect harvest and surroundings: Confirm the crop-specific waiting period and follow label precautions for people, animals and water.
