Product details
Valigan Fungicide | Validamycin 3% L
A non-systemic antibiotic fungicide for rice sheath blight, with a disease-specific use and no assumed
spray, drench or seed-treatment programme.
Disease fit: Rice sheath blight. Diagnose the problem rather than extending the use
to rice blast, bacterial disease or every leaf symptom.
Correct identity: Validamycin 3% L is a single-active liquid formulation, not a
validamycin premix or a different concentration.
Application boundary: Non-systemic action does not establish a spray, soil-drench
or seed-treatment permission. Use the complete method and first-treatment stage on the supplied pack.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌾 Rice sheath-blight control: A
disease-focused option for rice sheath blight when the supplied pack’s permitted use and treatment conditions are met.
-
🛡️ Antifungal activity: Validamycin acts
against susceptible fungal disease development rather than serving as a nutrient, insecticide or general antibacterial treatment.

How It Works: Mode of Action
-
Trehalase inhibition is a proposed explanation: Validamycin can interfere with trehalase, an enzyme involved in breaking down the
fungus’s stored sugar, trehalose.
-
Stored-sugar use is restricted: Reduced trehalose breakdown can limit the supply of glucose available from that reserve to
susceptible fungal cells.
-
Fungal growth can be affected: Interference with this sugar-use pathway can restrict fungal growth under conditions where the
fungus depends on trehalose. This is not a claim that every fungus or every growth condition responds alike.
The full biological mode of action remains incompletely defined, which is reflected in FRAC Group U18.
Trehalase inhibition and proposed trehalose-related plant-defence effects do not establish guaranteed crop immunity or resistance-free
control. Older Group 26 references do not make this a different active ingredient.

Use only where the supplied current Valigan pack permits rice sheath blight. Do not expand this to rice blast,
bacterial diseases, other crops or all soil-borne fungi. Similar symptoms can have different causes.
Dosage & Application Guide
Rice sheath blight: confirm the complete method and treatment stage
Identify sheath blight in rice and confirm the complete current-pack application method and first-treatment
stage before use. A disease name alone does not establish when to begin, where to place the treatment or whether another application
is needed.
Confirm the product amount and its measurement unit together with water volume, equipment and route. Do not
change grams into millilitres simply because the product is liquid, and do not borrow a per-litre recipe or a spray schedule from
another validamycin brand.
Non-systemic activity does not authorize soil drenching, seed treatment or drone application. Use only the
route actually permitted for the supplied product and crop.
No complete numerical application programme is given here. Follow the supplied current pack’s product and water
quantities, first-treatment stage, method, any repeat limits, harvest interval and worker re-entry restrictions. The pre-harvest
interval is the time from the final application to harvest; worker re-entry and repeat-treatment intervals are separate. Missing
quantity, water or harvest details never mean zero quantity, no restriction or permission for immediate harvest. No fixed rainfast
interval is implied.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Match the formulation and disease: Confirm Valigan and validamycin 3% L on the supplied pack, and diagnose rice sheath blight. Do
not substitute a premix or different strength.
-
Use the permitted method and first stage: Check the actual application route and first-treatment stage together. Do not infer
foliar spraying, drenching, seed treatment or a fixed calendar from the word fungicide.
-
Measure only from complete directions: Confirm the product unit and water basis before measuring. Use calibrated equipment and the
pack’s preparation, coverage and weather directions; do not mix with bare hands.
-
Prevent unwanted exposure: Avoid spray drift and runoff. Keep product, leftovers and equipment washings away from non-target areas
and water sources.
-
Check mixtures and further treatment: Mix with another product only when both current labels expressly permit the proposed
combination for the crop and use. Physical compatibility alone is not permission to mix. Do not automatically add a fertilizer, sticker or
adjuvant, or create a repeat interval from another product.
-
Record the treatment: Record the crop, disease, field, date, method and quantity. Observe separate harvest and worker-entry
restrictions before the next operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What rice disease is Valigan intended for?
Rice sheath blight. It is not a general recommendation for rice blast, bacterial disease or every leaf
symptom; diagnose the problem and match the supplied pack’s permitted use.
2. Is Valigan systemic?
No. It is described as non-systemic. Do not assume movement throughout the plant or infer that applying it
to roots authorizes a soil drench.
3. Why is its FRAC group U18 rather than 26?
Validamycin is now in U18 because its complete biological mode of action is incompletely defined. The older
Group 26 code does not identify a different active ingredient or guarantee a different resistance option.
4. Does antibiotic mean it is a medicine or a general bacterial treatment?
No. Valigan is an agricultural fungicide for its permitted crop–disease use. It is not a human or veterinary
medicine, and no general bacterial-disease use is implied.
5. Can I use another validamycin product’s quantity or schedule?
No. Confirm the supplied Valigan pack’s exact measurement unit, product quantity, water, route,
first-treatment stage and waiting restrictions together. Another brand’s concentration, per-litre recipe, drone permission or repeat
schedule is not a substitute. Do not substitute an overseas label for the supplied current Indian pack.
Safety & Disclaimer

the product. Wash thoroughly and change contaminated clothing after work. Keep children, other people and animals away during
handling and application.
Store in the original labelled container, securely closed and away from children, food, feed and drinking
water. Follow the supplied Indian pack’s hazard classification, handling, storage and weather precautions. Prevent spillage. Keep

or other water sources. Follow the pack’s precautions for pollinators, livestock and other non-target organisms. Never reuse empty
