More Details

Hexadhan Plus is a systemic fungicide by Dhanuka Agritech Ltd. with Hexaconazole 5% SC as its active ingredient. This makes it a triazole fungicide, known for their broad-spectrum disease control and curative properties.

Key Features:

  • Systemic Action: Absorbed by the plant and translocated upwards, providing internal protection against fungal growth.

  • Protective, Curative, and Eradicant: Prevents infection, cures existing infections, and eliminates established pathogens.

  • Strong Antisporulant Activity: Inhibits the formation and release of fungal spores, reducing disease spread.

  • Translaminar Action: Penetrates leaf tissues, protecting both the upper and lower surfaces.

  • Low Dosage: Effective at lower concentrations, minimizing environmental impact and cost.

Mode of Action:

Hexadhan Plus inhibits the biosynthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes. This disrupts membrane structure and function, ultimately leading to the death of the fungus.
