How It Works: Mode of Action
-
Enzyme activity disrupted: Metiram interferes with several fungal enzyme systems rather than a single target.
-
Essential production interrupted: Within susceptible fungal cells, amino acid production is disrupted.
-
Early fungal growth stops: The fungus stops growing after spore germination and before it penetrates the plant.
Polyram is non-systemic. Coverage matters; do not assume treatment
of one surface protects all untreated new growth. Multi-site activity does not mean every tank mixture is approved.

Dosage & Application Guide
Crop-specific amount and harvest references
The following references retain the product quantities, water volumes and harvest safeguards for the named crop
and disease. They are not complete treatment schedules. Before applying, obtain the supplied Indian pack’s exact first-treatment crop
stage and disease conditions, method and treatment limits. Do not infer a first spray merely from Polyram’s protective
action.
Tomato: Alternaria blight: 1,000 g/acre with 200–300 L/acre water; minimum final-treatment-to-harvest
interval 6 days.
Groundnut: Tikka leaf spot: 800 g/acre with 200–300 L/acre water; minimum harvest interval 16
days.
Potato: Early and late blight: 800 g/acre with 200–300 L/acre water. Obtain the supplied current pack’s
exact harvest interval before treatment; do not choose between the 17-day and 21-day references without that
confirmation.
Grape: Downy mildew: 800 g/acre with 200–300 L/acre water; minimum harvest interval 7
days.
Rice: Blast and brown spot: 600–800 g/acre with 200 L/acre water; minimum harvest interval 51
days.
Apple: Scab, Marssonina blotch and Alternaria blotch: 300 g/100 L water, equivalent to 3 g/L; the water
reference is 1,000 L/acre and the minimum harvest interval is 21 days. This is a concentration reference, not a calculated product
dose per acre.
Black gram: Cercospora leaf spot: 500–600 g/acre with 200 L/acre water; minimum harvest interval 34
days.
Cotton: Alternaria leaf spot and grey mildew: 500–600 g/acre with 200 L/acre water; minimum harvest
interval 27 days.
Onion: Purple blotch and Stemphylium blight: 500–600 g/acre with 200 L/acre water; minimum harvest
interval 7 days.
Soybean: Myrothecium leaf spot: 500–600 g/acre with 200 L/acre water; minimum harvest interval 35
days.
Keep each area-based quantity paired with its own water reference. Do not convert it into a universal pump or
per-litre recipe. The apple concentration is stated directly, not calculated from an area dose; do not calculate an area product
amount from it.
A pre-harvest interval is the minimum time from the final treatment to harvest. Harvest, worker re-entry and
repeat-treatment restrictions are separate. A missing interval does not mean zero; resolve it before use.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Protective treatment: Confirm and follow the supplied crop label’s exact first-treatment stage and disease conditions; preventive
activity alone is not a treatment calendar.
-
Mixing: For tomato, groundnut, potato, grape and rice: premix the product in a little water, then add remaining water with
agitation.
-
Crop-specific method: For those five crops, the leaflet specifies high-volume foliar treatment with a flat-fan knapsack sprayer.
For apple, black gram, cotton, onion and soybean, obtain the supplied pack’s method; do not transfer these directions.
-
Tank mixtures: Use a mixture only when both current product labels permit the proposed combination for the crop and method.
Multi-site activity does not make every mixture suitable.
-
Water protection: Avoid use near aquaculture water. The product is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates.
Avoid high-concentration spraying with low-volume or ultra-low-volume equipment. Do not assume a fixed rainfast
interval; follow the supplied pack’s weather and rain-free directions. Record the crop, field, date and amount. Do not substitute
another brand, concentration or overseas label.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Polyram systemic?
No. Polyram is a protective contact fungicide; treated-surface coverage matters.
Can I use one dose for all crops?
No. Crop rates differ, and apple has a stated concentration reference rather than a product dose per acre.
Complete the current pack’s first-treatment timing and method before use.
What is the apple concentration?
300 g/100 L water, equal to 3 g/L. BASF lists 1000 L water per acre; no product dose per acre is calculated
here.
What is the potato harvest interval?
Obtain the exact harvest interval on the supplied current Indian pack before treatment. Do not assume that
either the 17-day or 21-day reference applies without confirmation.
Can Polyram be mixed with any fungicide?
No. Multi-site activity does not establish compatibility or approval for every tank mix.

targets.

leave used packs where they can be reused. Dispose of containers and residues according to the supplied leaflet, without
contaminating the environment or water.
Toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates: avoid use near water bodies and aquaculture. Keep product, drift,
runoff, leftovers and equipment washings away from water and non-target areas.
After skin contact, remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly with soap and water. Immediately rinse
exposed eyes under running water for at least 15 minutes, holding the eyelids open. After inhalation, keep the person calm and
move them to fresh air without exposing yourself. After ingestion, rinse the mouth and seek medical help immediately. Seek medical
help promptly after exposure, suspected poisoning or illness, taking the container or label. No specific antidote is known. Do not
