Lustre Fungicide | Carbendazim 25% + Flusilazole 12.5% SE
A two-active systemic fungicide for the listed diseases in paddy, chilli, groundnut and apple.
What it controls: A two-active systemic fungicide for the listed diseases in paddy, chilli, groundnut and apple.
When to use it: The manufacturer describes the first crop spray before or when disease symptoms appear; confirm the supplied crop label.
What to include: Check the crop-specific dose, application method, water volume and harvest interval before treatment.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🛡️Two fungicidal active ingredients: The ready-formulated combination brings together carbendazim and flusilazole. It is not an instruction to mix two separate pesticides.
- 🌿Systemic disease control: Dhanuka describes absorption and movement inside the plant. This supports the labelled crop treatment but does not establish an unlisted seed or soil use.
- 🍃Protection and early intervention: The brand describes preventive and curative activity. Early diagnosis remains important, and badly damaged tissue does not become healthy again simply after treatment.
- 🎯Four defined crop uses: Paddy, chilli, groundnut and apple have their own target diseases and dose bases. The table keeps the orchard concentration distinct from acre-based field-crop rates.
- 🔎Two groups to include in rotations: Both Groups 1 and 3 count in the spray history. A two-active premix is not resistance-proof and does not justify repeated use without a resistance plan.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Lustre combines two systemic fungicides that interrupt different parts of fungal development. Its two ingredients act on fungal cell division and membrane formation.
- Treatment is absorbed: After the labelled crop spray, the active ingredients move within the plant. Coverage and the correct crop’s application directions remain essential.
- Carbendazim limits cell division: The Group 1 ingredient interferes with the structures fungi need to divide their cells. This restricts normal growth of susceptible fungi.
- Flusilazole disrupts membranes: The Group 3 ingredient interferes with production of sterols needed in fungal cell membranes. This provides a second target in the ready-made formulation.
Use the FRAC group information to plan resistance management with qualified crop advice. A different brand with the same mode of action is not a different resistance-management option.

Dosage & Application Guide
Dhanuka’s crop-spray guidance gives paddy, chilli and groundnut rates per acre, while apple uses a spray concentration. These figures are not a substitute for the current pack leaflet; confirm the full crop-specific directions before use.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paddy — sheath blight | 320–384 ml | See note* | See note* | See note* |
| Chilli — listed diseases | 400 ml | See note* | See note* | See note* |
| Groundnut — listed diseases | 256–320 ml | See note* | See note* | See note* |
| Apple — Alternaria blotch and premature leaf fall | See note* | See note* | 0.8 ml/L Original: 8 ml/10 L water |
See note* |
Dhanuka’s programme begins before or when disease symptoms appear. It mentions a second spray after 12–15 days or as needed. Check the current crop label and need for a further treatment; this is not a harvest interval.
*Water per acre and crop-specific harvest intervals are not supplied here. Check them before application. Field-crop area rates and the apple concentration are different dosing bases.
The chilli programme shown uses 400 ml/acre. Follow the rate on your current pack label if it differs.
The apple concentration is 8 ml per 10 L water, equivalent to 0.8 ml/L. This description does not provide drone, drench or seed-treatment directions, or general tank-mix approval.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Confirm the disease and crop: Check the diagnosis against the listed target for paddy, chilli, groundnut or apple. Use the current supplied label for any additional use.
- Check missing directions: Confirm the full water programme, crop timing, harvest interval and maximum number of applications before treating.
- Preserve the correct dose basis: Measure the field-crop product by the labelled treated area. For apple, retain the concentration and use the label’s canopy-coverage directions; do not guess an acre amount.
- Apply with calibrated coverage: Follow the product’s preparation directions and use suitable calibrated crop-spray equipment. Avoid drift and runoff and protect nearby water and useful insects.
- Plan follow-on treatment carefully: Record the date and crop. Respect both FRAC Groups 1 and 3 when choosing a later fungicide, and follow the current entry and harvest restrictions.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What are the two ingredients in Lustre?It contains carbendazim 25% and flusilazole 12.5% in an SE formulation. Carbendazim is a Group 1 fungicide and flusilazole is Group 3.
2. Is one rate suitable for all four crops?No. Paddy is listed at 320–384 ml/acre, chilli at 400 ml/acre in the manufacturer’s programme, and groundnut at 256–320 ml/acre. Apple is listed as 8 ml per 10 L water, not an acre dose.
3. Can I use the apple concentration for groundnut?No. An orchard concentration cannot replace a field-crop area rate without the correct label programme. Similarly, do not assume a fixed water volume just to convert the area dose into a pump recipe.
4. Can Lustre be mixed freely with fertilizers or pesticides?No. Check both current labels and qualified crop advice for the particular mixture before combining products. Do not assume a mixture is suitable for every crop or use.
5. Does 12–15 days mean the crop can be harvested then?No. That is the manufacturer’s possible second-spray timing. It does not establish a PHI or a re-entry interval. Read the exact current pack’s crop-specific restrictions before treatment.
