Mancozeb 64%+ Cmoxanil 8% WP
Mode of action- It is mixture of two fungicides- Mancozeb and Cymoxanil. The partner mancozeb acts by its contact action. Mancozeb is fungitoxic when exposed to air. It is converted to an isothiocyanate, which inactivates the sulphahydral (SH) groups in enzymes of fungi. Some times the metals are exchanged between mancozeb and enzymes of fungi, thus causing disturbance in fungal enzyme functioning. Other partner Cymoxanil is semi systemic fungicide acts many ways. It inhibits spore germination, viability and growth. Immediately after infection, Moximate induces defense in plant system, which results in thickening of cell walls near infection site. Thus invasion and spread of disease in plant prevented
Special features-
1. Dual action, broad spectrum specialty Oomyceticide which controls diseases by its preventive as well as early curative action. Controls disease, even if infection has initiated 2-3 days earlier. Its advisable to apply before symptoms appear
2. Due to its strong contact as well as translaminar action, provides long duration contro
3. Best in controlling resistance population of fungus
4. Repeat sprays not required even if it rains 2-3 hours after application
5. Provides Manganese and Zinc nutrition, keeping plants green and healthy.
Time of application- Start Preventive sprays of MOXIMATE with onset of favorable blight climate. Early season use of Moximate will reduce disease out-break in later season. If higher blight pressure is expected, Moximate to be followed by Mancozeb + Metalaxyl mixture. Thorough coverage is must for better results

Phytotoxicity- Phytotoxicity has not been reported, when used as recommended
Caution- Always read the label and leaflet attached to the container and use the product accordingly. Above crops and diseases are the suggested ones
