BHOOMIPUTRA is a broad-spectrum fungicide manufactured by HPM India.1 It contains two active ingredients for a dual mode of action against a wide range of fungal diseases:
Azoxystrobin 18.2% w/w: A strobilurin fungicide that inhibits mitochondrial respiration in fungi.2
Difenoconazole 11.4% w/w: A triazole fungicide that inhibits ergosterol biosynthesis in fungi.
This combination makes BHOOMIPUTRA a powerful and versatile solution for protecting various crops from fungal diseases.
Key features and benefits:
Broad-spectrum activity: BHOOMIPUTRA effectively controls a wide range of fungal diseases, including:
Rice: Blast, Sheath blight
Wheat: Rust, Powdery mildew
Cotton: Grey mildew, Leaf spot
Tomato: Early blight, Late blight
Onion: Purple blotch, Stemphylium blight, Downy mildew
Maize: Blight, Downy mildew
Chilli: Anthracnose, Powdery mildew
Turmeric: Leaf blotch, Leaf spot, Rhizome rot
Dual mode of action: The combination of Azoxystrobin and Difenoconazole offers two different ways to disrupt fungal growth, reducing the risk of resistance development.
Systemic and translaminar action: Both active ingredients are absorbed by the plant and move within its tissues, providing protection on both sides of the leaves and throughout the plant.3
Preventive and curative action: BHOOMIPUTRA not only prevents fungal infections but also helps in curing existing infections.
Antisporulant activity: It inhibits the production of spores, reducing the spread of diseases.
Improved crop yield and quality: By effectively controlling fungal diseases, BHOOMIPUTRA contributes to healthier plants, better fruit quality, and higher yields.
Cost-effective: It offers efficient disease control at an economical price.
Safe for crops: Phytotoxicity has not been reported when used as recommended.
Mode of action:
Azoxystrobin: Inhibits mitochondrial respiration in fungi by blocking electron transfer, disrupting energy production and leading to fungal death.4
Difenoconazole: Inhibits ergosterol biosynthesis in fungi, disrupting cell membrane formation and function, leading to fungal death.
Recommended crops:
BHOOMIPUTRA can be used on a variety of crops, including those listed above and others where the listed diseases are a concern.
Application:
BHOOMIPUTRA is available as a suspension concentrate (SC) formulation. It should be diluted with water according to the recommended dosage and applied as a foliar spray. Ensure thorough coverage of the crop for optimal results. Always refer to the product label for specific instructions.
