Item description
TMT 70 Fungicide by AgroStar | 250
g
TMT 70 is a systemic fungicide containing thiophanate-methyl
70% w/w WP. It is intended for the specified fungal disease uses in apple, bottle gourd, cucurbits, grape, papaya, pigeonpea,
tomato and wheat. Each crop and disease needs its own complete application directions. This listing is the 250 g
pack.
What it targets: The crop-specific scab, anthracnose, powdery mildew, rust, wilt,
ring rot and leaf blight uses listed below. The disease list is not interchangeable between crops.
When to use it: Confirm the crop-specific first-application trigger before
treatment. A general statement about disease incidence does not establish the correct starting stage or repeat
schedule.
What to check: The supplied pack label, exact crop and disease, product and water
quantities, spray method, timing, harvest interval and worker-entry requirements.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌿 Systemic action: Works within treated
plant tissue against susceptible fungal pathogens in its listed crop and disease uses.
- 🛡️ Preventive and curative properties: AgroStar describes both preventive and curative activity. This is not a promise to repair damaged tissue or a substitute for the
correct first-application timing.
- 🎯 Crop-specific disease coverage: The
own-brand leaflet includes eight crops, with separate disease targets rather than a universal fungicide recommendation.
- 💧 Wettable-powder formulation: WP is a
powder intended to disperse in water for the permitted application. Prepare and maintain the spray mixture as the supplied directions
require.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Thiophanate-methyl belongs to FRAC Group 1. Its fungal target
differs from the targets of many other fungicide groups, but changing the brand name alone does not change the resistance
group.
- Disrupts cell division: Group 1 MBC fungicides act on beta-tubulin assembly, interfering with mitosis and cell division in
susceptible fungi.
- Systemic activity: The product is described as systemic, with preventive and curative properties. Use it only for the labelled crop
and disease pairing; systemic does not mean every disease or application route is covered.
- Resistance matters: FRAC classifies this group as high risk, with resistance common in many fungal species and positive
cross-resistance within the group. Repeated reliance on Group 1 can reduce control.
Use an integrated disease-management programme and qualified local
advice on effective, permitted alternatives from different modes of action. Do not assume switching to another Group 1 product will
overcome resistance, and do not invent a repeat interval when the exact crop directions are incomplete.

Dosage & Application Guide
A ready-to-use numerical spray programme is not provided here. The
public leaflet does not state a positive first-application trigger, so its quantities and harvest intervals cannot by themselves
establish a complete treatment schedule.
Application Requirements & Crop-Specific Planning
| Requirement | What to Confirm Before Use |
|---|---|
| Crop and disease | Match one of the exact crop–disease pairs above. Do not use a crop name alone to choose a treatment. |
| First application | Obtain the exact crop-specific starting stage or disease trigger from the supplied directions or authoritative guidance for
this product. |
| Product and water | Confirm the formulated-product quantity and matching spray-water volume for the measured treatment area. Do not substitute a
pack size or a general retail dose. |
| Route and equipment | The leaflet lists knapsack, foot, compression-knapsack and ASPEE-HTP power sprayers. Confirm the crop-specific method; this
does not establish a seed-treatment or drenching recipe. |
| Harvest and entry | Confirm the crop- and disease-specific harvest interval and worker-entry requirements separately. An unspecified entry
interval does not mean immediate re-entry. |
Why no litre or tank dose is shown: The missing first
timing is not solved by converting the available quantities. No per-litre, pump, tank or pack-coverage recipe is
supplied.
Keep the crop programme together: Different crops and even
separate wheat disease rows have different supporting details. Do not borrow another crop’s water volume, harvest interval or method,
or another brand’s schedule.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Identify the problem: Confirm the crop and fungal disease before treatment. Do not treat insect damage, nutrient problems or every
type of wilt as a listed fungal disease.
- Complete the directions first: Check the exact supplied TMT 70 pack and obtain the missing crop-specific first timing before
selecting a numerical programme. Do not schedule spraying solely from pack size or symptoms mentioned on another brand.
- Use the correct formulation: Handle WP as a powder that disperses in water. Avoid creating or inhaling dust; follow the supplied
mixing and agitation instructions rather than assuming it dissolves completely.
- Calibrate the permitted sprayer: Use the crop-specific spray method, suitable equipment and verified water volume. Avoid drift onto
people, animals, other crops and water bodies.
- Check any mixture: AgroStar’s broad compatibility statement is not approval for every pesticide, fertiliser or adjuvant. Use a
combination only when the exact directions for both products permit it.
- Manage resistance: Use field monitoring, sanitation and other appropriate disease-management practices. Plan permitted
mode-of-action changes with qualified advice rather than repeating Group 1 automatically.
- Respect harvest and worker safety: Record applications and observe the exact harvest and worker-entry directions. Dry foliage alone
is not evidence that either interval has been met.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. This listing is thiophanate-methyl 70% WP, a wettable powder. Do not substitute the dose, mixing directions or use programme of a different concentration, formulation or brand.
The leaflet lists powdery mildew, anthracnose and rust in grape, and brown rust and leaf blight in wheat. Keep each disease paired with its own crop-specific directions; these names do not establish a universal spray schedule.
The leaflet lists Fusarium wilt in pigeonpea and spray equipment, but the reviewed directions do not establish a complete seed-treatment or drenching programme. Do not improvise either route from that target claim.
The public leaflet does not supply the first-application trigger needed to complete the programme. Obtain the exact crop directions before treatment; a retail quantity or disease-incidence statement alone is not enough.
No automatic repeat schedule or universal tank-mix approval is provided. FRAC Group 1 has high resistance risk. Follow exact product directions, verify any mixture and use qualified advice for resistance management.
Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it: Read the supplied TMT 70 label and leaflet, verify the exact formulation and follow
current national and state restrictions. Use only the listed crop and disease pairings with complete product, water, method,
timing, harvest and worker-entry directions. Check destination-market residue requirements separately if the crop is intended
for export.
Wear protective clothing, long sleeves, trousers, boots, chemical-resistant gloves and eye or face
protection. The safety data sheet requires suitable approved respiratory protection including a particle filter. Avoid
breathing dust, vapours or spray mist and avoid skin and eye contact. Do not eat, drink or smoke during handling. Wash hands
and exposed skin and wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
The safety data sheet warns that the product is harmful if inhaled, is suspected of causing genetic
defects, may cause cancer, and may damage the chest and respiratory system through prolonged or repeated exposure. Prevent
exposure. If exposed or unwell, seek medical help promptly and show the container, label or safety data sheet. Move an
inhalation casualty to fresh air, wash contaminated skin and rinse exposed eyes thoroughly with clean water. Do not induce
vomiting unless directed by a medical professional, and never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person.
The leaflet warns of toxicity to earthworms. The safety data sheet warns of toxicity to aquatic life
with long-lasting effects. Keep product, spray drift, spills, runoff, washings and empty packaging out of drains, streams and
other water bodies. Do not infer that systemic activity or a low acute-toxicity figure makes the product harmless to people or
the environment.
Keep tightly closed in its original container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated, locked place away from
children, food, drink, animal feed, seeds and fertilisers. Protect from excess moisture, heat, oxidising agents, strong acids
and strong bases. Do not reuse or burn containers. Use approved waste-disposal routes and current local requirements. This
description does not guarantee disease control, crop safety or market acceptance and does not replace the supplied
label.
