Kenagro Tajiri 720WP Fungicide

Overview

Tajiri 720WP is a versatile and highly effective fungicide formulated to tackle fungal diseases in crops, ensuring improved yields and quality. The product contains two active ingredients: Mancozeb (640g/kg) and Cymoxanil (80g/kg). This dual-action formulation offers both preventive and curative effects, making it a go-to solution for combating persistent fungal problems such as early blight, late blight, and downy mildew. Its efficacy makes it especially suitable for crops like roses, tomatoes, and potatoes, which are often prone to fungal infestations.

Active Ingredients and Mode of Action

Mancozeb: As a protectant fungicide, Mancozeb forms a barrier on plant surfaces, preventing fungal spores from germinating and spreading. It inhibits fungal enzymes critical for their survival.

Cymoxanil: This systemic fungicide penetrates plant tissues, attacking the fungus within. It disrupts fungal metabolism and prevents further growth, delivering a curative action even after infection has occurred. Together, these ingredients provide a robust defense system against fungal diseases, acting both externally and internally.

Applications

Tajiri 720WP is tailored for use in various scenarios:

Crops: It is widely used in controlling blights in tomatoes and potatoes as well as managing downy mildew in ornamental plants like roses.

Application Rates: Typically, the recommended dosage is 2kg per hectare mixed in 1000 liters of water or 40g in 20 liters of water. These rates ensure adequate coverage and effectiveness.

Method of Application: The fungicide is applied as a spray, ensuring even distribution over the plant surfaces. It should be applied early in the disease cycle for optimal results, with repeat applications as needed based on disease pressure.

Safety and Handling

Protective Measures: Users are advised to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, masks, and goggles during handling and application to avoid contact with skin, eyes, and respiratory systems.

Storage: Store Tajiri 720WP in a cool, dry place away from food, water sources, and children. Proper labeling and packaging ensure easy identification and safe storage.

Environmental Safety: Care should be taken to prevent run-off into water bodies, as the product can affect aquatic ecosystems.
