Product details
Kapeni Fungicide by Coromandel
Carbendazim 12% + mancozeb 63% WP combines systemic and contact action for the listed crop diseases. Keep crop treatment and groundnut seed treatment separate.
Two active ingredients: Carbendazim 12% and mancozeb 63% in a wettable powder.
Crop-specific use: Targets and harvest intervals differ between the seven crops.
Separate seed use: Groundnut seed-treatment quantities are not per-acre spray doses.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits

🌱Systemic component: Carbendazim acts within the plant against susceptible fungi.
-
🛡️Contact component: Mancozeb adds protective activity on treated surfaces.
-

How It Works: Mode of Action
Kapeni combines a systemic fungicide with a multi-site contact fungicide.
-
Internal activity: Carbendazim interferes with fungal cell division.
-
Surface protection: Mancozeb acts at several sites in susceptible fungi.
-
Combined disease management: The two components provide preventive and curative activity within the crop-and-disease uses permitted by the label.
The mixture does not remove resistance risk. Carbendazim belongs to FRAC Group 1; avoid repeated dependence on the same group and follow a suitable resistance-management plan.
Target Crops & Diseases
The listed manufacturer scope is below. G.nut means groundnut; the seed-treatment row is a separate use, not an extra spray target.

|
| Potato |
|
| Tea |
|
| Grapes |
|
| Mango |

Groundnut “blast” is not recommended here because that catalogue entry needs clarification. Mancozeb use on guava, jowar (sorghum) and tapioca is prohibited in India. Check current local restrictions as well.
Dosage & Application Guide
Numerical crop-treatment and seed-treatment programmes are withheld because manufacturer quantities and separate formulation references do not establish complete current Kapeni directions with matching crop-and-disease conditions, route, carrier, harvest requirements or seed-handling process. Confirm these together on the supplied label before use.
Keep all seven crop-and-disease programmes distinct. The grape and mango references use a concentration basis, not an area dose; do not import generic canopy-water instructions or transfer quantities and harvest intervals between crops.
The manufacturer booklet limits the authority of its recommendations and is not the supplied current label. Do not combine its quantities with generic carrier or harvest references, harmonise differently rounded figures, or derive area or tank quantities from concentration alone. An unknown harvest interval does not permit immediate harvest.
Groundnut seed treatment: Coromandel lists a separate seed-weight-based use for tikka leaf spot, collar rot and dry root rot; its numerical recipe is withheld pending the complete current seed-treatment process. This is not a spray concentration or per-acre dose. Confirm the complete current seed-treatment method and precautions. Application route, timing, repeats, rainfast time and entry intervals for crop treatments also require pack confirmation; no drone programme is provided.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Match crop, disease and route: Separate crop treatment from groundnut seed treatment. Do not use the disputed groundnut blast entry as a recommendation.
-
Confirm the full label programme: Use the matching crop dose, water quantity, method and timing. Do not transfer a seed rate to spray water or derive canopy-based acre quantities.
-
Mix only as directed: Follow the current pack’s mixing and equipment instructions. Avoid alkaline materials and unverified tank mixtures.
-
Protect harvest and treated seed: Observe each crop’s harvest and entry requirements. Never use treated seed for food or feed; follow the label’s handling and sowing precautions.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Kapeni contain?
Carbendazim 12% + mancozeb 63% WP, a wettable-powder combination fungicide.
Does one waiting period cover every crop?
No. Confirm the exact crop-and-disease harvest directions on the current pack rather than transferring intervals between uses or combining partial references.
Is the groundnut seed-treatment quantity a spray dose?
No. It is a separate seed-weight basis for the three listed groundnut seed-treatment diseases, not spray-water concentration or area. Confirm the complete preparation, handling and sowing process; no numerical seed recipe is supplied here.
Can a grape or mango concentration alone give an acre dose?
No. The complete supplied-label coverage and application programme must first be established. Do not derive an acre or tank quantity from a concentration reference alone.
Can Kapeni be used on guava, jowar or tapioca?
No recommendation is given for these crops. Mancozeb use on them is prohibited in India. Check all additional current local restrictions.
