How It Works: Mode of Action
Thiophanate methyl belongs to FRAC Group 1. It disrupts tubulin-related processes needed for fungal cell division.
- Reach the target: Follow the exact crop label’s spray placement and coverage directions.
- Disrupt fungal growth: The active ingredient interferes with tubulin polymerization and cell division.

Resistance is known within FRAC Group 1. Switching between thiophanate methyl and carbendazim is not a change to a different resistance group.
Target Crops & Diseases
The current manufacturer summary names papaya, apple, bottle gourd and grapes. The exact-brand IFFCO Bazar table additionally supports tomato ring rot, also present in the current government formulation table.
| Crop | Target Disease(s) |
|---|---|
| Papaya |
|
| Apple |
|
| Tomato |
|
| Bottle gourd |
|
| Grapes |
|
Grape downy mildew is a separate government formulation reference; confirm that target and its programme on the current Moyashi pack. Bazar also lists wheat brown rust/leaf blight, cucurbit powdery mildew and pigeon-pea Fusarium wilt, but those entries were not found in the current national 70% WP table. Those specific uses are withheld pending current label confirmation, not declared banned.
Dosage & Application Guide
The table uses the exact branded product and water quantities published by IFFCO Bazar for these confirmed crop–disease pairings. The complete supplied label must confirm the intended use and any unresolved harvest requirement.
Crop-specific Dose, Water & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Product reference | Water reference | Method | PHI* |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Papaya | 280–300 g / acre | 300–400 L / acre | Foliar spray | 4–8 days |
| Apple | 280–300 g / acre | 300–400 L / acre | Foliar spray | 3 days |
| Tomato | 280–300 g / acre | 300–400 L / acre | Foliar spray | Confirm† |
| Bottle gourd | 580–600 g / acre | 300–400 L / acre | Foliar spray | 1 day |
| Grapes | 300 g / acre | 300–400 L / acre | Foliar spray | 7 days |
The government formulation table separately gives 715 g/ha for papaya, apple, tomato and grapes, and 1,430 g/ha for bottle gourd, with 750–1,000 L water/ha. The branded acre figures above are direct source values, not recalculated substitutions. The grape row applies to powdery mildew, anthracnose and rust; downy mildew needs current pack confirmation.
*PHI is the interval from final application to harvest. †Tomato is listed as 7–14 days by Bazar but 7 days in the current formulation table; confirm the exact Moyashi label. Papaya’s 4–8-day source range also requires the applicable label direction. No seed, tuber-dip or drench programme is supplied here.
No per-tank dose, fixed rainfast period, repeat interval, maximum applications or re-entry time is invented. Check the supplied label for those directions and for mixing restrictions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Confirm the pairing: Identify the crop and disease, then check the exact pack label.
- Time treatment correctly: Use the label’s growth-stage and disease-pressure instructions.
- Prepare the foliar spray: Follow the stated dose, water volume, mixing order and equipment. Do not assume tank-mix compatibility.
- Protect harvest and surroundings: Observe harvest and entry precautions, prevent drift and keep spray and washings out of water.
