Dhanuka M-45 (Mancozeb 75% WP) is a contact fungicide of the Dithiocarbamate group that checks fungal growth and disease spread. It reduces enzyme activity in fungi, leading to reduced energy production and fungal death.
Features & Benefits
Broad-spectrum fungicide controlling numerous diseases (multi-site action) caused by various fungi infecting many crops.
Used for foliar sprays, nursery drenching, and seed treatments.
Can be used repeatedly without resistance development.
Suitable for use with systemic fungicides to prevent/delay resistance.
Provides trace amounts of manganese and zinc, keeping plants green and healthy.
Safe for natural enemies and the environment; part of Integrated Disease Management.
Less expensive in the long run due to nutritional benefits and superior crop protection, resulting in high yields and better quality.
Mode of Action
Broad-spectrum protective fungicide. Fungitoxic upon air exposure, it converts to an isothiocyanate, which inactivates sulphahydral (SH) groups in fungal enzymes. Metal exchange between Mancozeb and fungal enzymes can also disrupt enzyme function.
