Product details
Sixer Fungicide | Carbendazim 12% + Mancozeb 63% WP
A combined systemic and contact fungicide. Seed-treatment rates and foliar uses have different bases and must not be interchanged.
What it controls: The listed crop diseases, with seed-treatment targets separated from field-crop targets.
When to use it: Only in the crop and treatment route on the supplied current label; do not use a foliar rate on seed.
What to include: Exact crop diagnosis, seed weight or treated area as appropriate, and the label’s full method and restrictions.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🛡️Two complementary components: Mancozeb works by contact while carbendazim can move within plant tissue. This is one formulated product, not a recipe to mix separate concentrates.
- 🍃Protection at the surface: The mancozeb component acts at several sites in the fungus and helps prevent successful development on treated surfaces.
- 🌱Selected seed-treatment uses: Dhanuka expressly lists groundnut, soybean and pea seed treatment. These rates are measured per kilogram of seed, not per acre.
- 🎯Crop-specific disease lists: Targets are kept with their crops and routes so that a familiar disease name does not become an unverified use on another crop.
- 📋Useful for stewardship planning: Groups 1 and M03 are both identified. The mixture does not make repeated use resistance-proof.
Technical Specifications
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Brand Name | Sixer Fungicide — Dhanuka Agritech Limited. |
| Technical Name | Carbendazim 12% + mancozeb 63% WP. |
| FRAC MoA Code | Carbendazim: Group 1 (MBC); mancozeb: Group M03 (multi-site contact activity). |
| Chemical Group | Benzimidazole (carbendazim) + dithiocarbamate (mancozeb). |
| Formulation | WP: wettable powder; the manufacturer distinguishes selected seed-treatment and foliar uses. |
| Toxicity Label | Use the hazard information and protective measures on the supplied pack; no toxicity colour band is assigned here. |
How It Works: Mode of Action
Sixer combines contact and systemic fungicidal activity. Its two ingredients interrupt fungal development in different ways.
- The selected treatment reaches its target: Use the verified crop and route. Seed coating and spraying a standing crop are different applications and require different measurements and equipment.
- Mancozeb affects several fungal processes: The contact component interferes at multiple sites and helps limit spore germination on treated surfaces.
- Carbendazim disrupts fungal cell division: The systemic component affects the machinery needed for fungal cells to divide. It does not repair tissue that has already been badly damaged.
Carbendazim belongs to FRAC Group 1 and mancozeb to M03. Follow resistance-management directions and combine chemical use with sound disease-management practices. Do not assume that changing brand changes either active ingredient.

Dosage & Application Guide
Complete crop-spray directions require confirmation on the current Sixer label. The seed-treatment rates below are measured per kilogram of seed, not per acre.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Foliar / standing-crop uses | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
Groundnut seed treatment: 2.5 g product/kg seed for the listed tikka/leaf spot, collar rot and dry root rot entry. Soybean seed treatment: 3 g product/kg seed for collar rot, charcoal rot and seedling rot. Pea seed treatment: 3 g product/kg seed for Rhizoctonia seedling blight, Ascochyta foot rot and Fusarium wilt.
These are manufacturer-listed seed-treatment rates, not grams per acre. Use the supplied pack to establish the full coating method, any water requirement and treatment timing. No dry, slurry or soaking method is inferred from WP.
*A current exact Indian brand leaflet was not available. Numerical foliar rates, water, concentrations and PHIs are withheld until the full crop-specific programme is confirmed. Do not use a seed-weight rate as a foliar dose or an orchard concentration as an acreage dose.
No universal pump recipe, repeat interval, numerical re-entry period or tank-mixture approval is established. Keep treated seed separate from food and feed and follow the label’s seed-handling restrictions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Choose the treatment route first: Decide whether the intended use is one of the explicitly listed seed treatments or a label-approved standing-crop treatment. Do not switch routes because the same disease is mentioned.
- Weigh seed accurately: For the seed entries, measure kilograms of seed and use the corresponding product rate. Acreage planted does not replace seed weight.
- Obtain the full seed-coating method: Follow the current leaflet for preparation, coating equipment, water if any, drying and sowing restrictions. Do not invent a slurry or soak from the wettable-powder formulation name.
- Resolve the standing-crop programme: Before spraying, establish the exact crop dose, water, timing and waiting restrictions from the supplied label. The target table is not a substitute for those instructions.
- Protect seed and handlers: Do not use treated seed for human food, livestock feed or oil extraction. Label and handle it separately. Follow pack precautions for dust, spray, equipment cleaning and disposal.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I use the same Sixer rate for seed treatment and spraying?No. Seed-treatment quantities are per kilogram of seed. A crop-spray quantity or orchard concentration has a different basis and cannot be substituted.
2. Which seed-treatment rates are retained?Dhanuka expressly lists 2.5 g/kg seed for groundnut and 3 g/kg seed for soybean and pea, each with its own disease list above. The supplied label is still needed for the full treatment method.
3. Why are foliar numerical rates withheld?Some manufacturer entries conflict, including potato, tea and groundnut foliar doses. Other rows lack a sufficiently clear primary application method. This description therefore does not select a rate or invent the missing route.
4. Does WP mean I should make a seed slurry?No. WP describes a wettable-powder formulation, not the complete treatment instruction. Use only the seed-coating method and water basis specified for the exact product and crop.
5. Can I mix Sixer with any other pesticide?No blanket mixture is recommended here. General compatibility language does not verify a particular partner, crop or treatment route. Follow both current labels and qualified advice.
