EBS PUNCH Captan 70% + Hexaconazole 5% WP


1. Product Overview:

Captan 70% + Hexaconazole 5% WP is a broad-spectrum, systemic-cum-contact fungicide with a dual-mode action that provides preventive, curative, and eradicative control over various fungal diseases affecting multiple crops.

  • Captan (70%) – A contact fungicide from the phthalimide group that prevents spore germination and inhibits fungal growth.

  • Hexaconazole (5%) – A systemic triazole fungicide that stops fungal sterol biosynthesis, leading to fungal cell destruction.

This powerful combination ensures long-lasting protection from leaf spots, powdery mildew, blights, fruit rot, anthracnose, rust, and other fungal infections while enhancing plant health and yield.


2. Mode of Action:

Captan 70% + Hexaconazole 5% WP works through:

Contact Action (Captan): Forms a protective barrier on the plant surface, preventing fungal spore germination.
Systemic Action (Hexaconazole): Absorbed into plant tissues, moving upwards to inhibit fungal sterol biosynthesis, stopping disease spread.
Curative & Eradicative Function: Kills existing infections and stops new fungal development.
Translaminar Activity: Moves through leaf tissues, ensuring deep penetration and extended protection.
Dual-Mode Resistance Management: Since it acts on multiple fungal pathways, it reduces the risk of resistance development.


3. Target Diseases Controlled:

This fungicide is highly effective against a wide range of fungal diseases, including:

Powdery Mildew (Erysiphe spp., Oidium spp.) – Grapes, Mango, Cucurbits
Early & Late Blight (Alternaria solani, Phytophthora infestans) – Tomato, Potato
Rusts (Puccinia spp.) – Wheat, Soybean, Pulses
Anthracnose (Colletotrichum spp.) – Chilli, Mango
Downy Mildew (Plasmopara viticola) – Grapes, Cucurbits
Leaf Spots & Scabs (Cercospora spp., Venturia inaequalis) – Groundnut, Apple
Fruit Rot & Stem Rot (Colletotrichum, Phomopsis spp.) – Citrus, Tomato
Sheath Blight (Rhizoctonia solani) – Rice
Damping-off (Pythium spp., Phytophthora spp.) – Vegetables, Ornamentals
Sigatoka Disease (Mycosphaerella spp.) – Banana


4. Recommended Crops:

🌾 Field Crops – Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean, Pulses
🍅 Vegetables – Tomato, Potato, Chilli, Cucurbits, Onion
🍇 Fruits – Grapes, Mango, Apple, Citrus, Banana

🌿 Ornamental & Turf Crops – Roses, Marigold, Lawns


5. Application and Dosage:

Captan 70% + Hexaconazole 5% WP is applied as a foliar spray for preventive and curative disease management.

Crop Target Disease Dosage per Acre Application Timing
Tomato Early & Late Blight 400-500 g/acre Apply at first sign of disease
Potato Late Blight 500 g/acre Repeat every 10-12 days
Grapes Powdery & Downy Mildew 500 g/acre Spray before flowering & fruiting
Rice Sheath Blight 400-500 g/acre Apply at early infection stage
Wheat Rust 500 g/acre Spray at disease onset
Chilli Anthracnose, Powdery Mildew 500 g/acre Repeat every 12-15 days
Mango Anthracnose, Powdery Mildew 400-500 g/acre Spray before flowering
Banana Sigatoka Disease 500 g/acre Apply before disease outbreak

Application Guidelines:

  • Mix the recommended dose in 200-300 liters of water per acre.

  • Use a knapsack sprayer or power sprayer for fine droplet application.

  • Ensure even coverage of both sides of leaves and plant stems.

  • Reapply every 10-15 days in case of continuous disease pressure.

  • Avoid application during rain to prevent wash-off.
