Krishikranti DIZOXY TOP Azoxystrobin 18.2% + Difenoconazole 11.4% Sc

Krishikranti DIZOXY TOP (Azoxystrobin 18.2% + Difenoconazole 11.4% SC) is a dual-action broad-spectrum systemic fungicide built for tough disease management. The combination of Azoxystrobin and Difenoconazole hits fungi at two different growth stages  spore germination and mycelial development  delivering preventive, curative, and eradicative action in a single spray. One of the most reliable fungicides for paddy, wheat, chilli, tomato, cotton, sugarcane, and vegetables.

Mode of Action

• Azoxystrobin 18.2% : Stops fungal spore germination and energy production at the very start of infection. Long-lasting preventive action.
• Difenoconazole 11.4% : Penetrates the leaf, moves through plant tissue, and disrupts fungal cell membrane formation. Strong curative action.
• Combined effect: Translaminar + xylem-systemic movement, giving 14–21 days of residual protection.

Key Benefits : Azoxystrobin + Difenoconazole 11.4% SC

• Dual mode of action : two molecules attack fungi from two angles; resistance build-up is significantly slower.
• Triple effect : preventive, curative, and eradicative in one spray.
• Long residual : protects the crop for 14–21 days, reducing total spray count per cycle.
• Greening effect : keeps the flag leaf greener for longer, improves photosynthesis and grain filling.
• Yield boost : protects pollen and panicles during flowering; ensures better grain conversion.
• Stress tolerance : reported physiological benefits during heat and water stress.
• Wide crop coverage : paddy, wheat, maize, cotton, chilli, tomato, sugarcane, turmeric, onion, grapes, apple, pomegranate, and vegetables.
• Cost-effective : only 200 ml needed per acre for full protection.

Azoxystrobin Difenoconazole Uses (Crop-Wise Diseases Controlled)

Azoxystrobin 18.2 + Difenoconazole 11.4 SC Dose & Application

When to Spray

• Paddy: At tillering and panicle initiation for sheath blight and blast control.
• Cotton, chilli, tomato: At first sign of leaf spot, blight, or anthracnose.
• Cereals (wheat, maize): At flag leaf stage for rust and powdery mildew.
• Fruits (grapes, apple, pomegranate): Pre-flowering and pre-bunch closing.
• Preventive: During humid, foggy, or post-rain weather conditions.

Spray Tips for Best Results

• Spray during early morning or late evening — avoid hot afternoon sun.
• Use a flat fan or hollow cone nozzle for fine, uniform droplets.
• Cover both upper and lower leaf surfaces.
• Maintain 200 litres of water per acre for proper canopy coverage.
• Rotate with contact fungicides like Mancozeb 75% WP or Copper Oxychloride 50% WP after 2 sprays to prevent resistance.
• Do not spray if rain is expected within 4 hours.

Compatibility

Tank-mix compatible with most insecticides and fungicides except strongly alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture. Always perform a small jar test before mixing.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is Azoxystrobin 18.2% + Difenoconazole 11.4% SC used for?

It controls a wide range of fungal diseases including sheath blight, blast, rust, powdery mildew, downy mildew, anthracnose, leaf spot, early blight, late blight, and scab across paddy, wheat, tomato, chilli, grapes, apple, onion, potato, cotton, sugarcane, and pomegranate.

2. What is the correct dose of Azoxystrobin 18.2 + Difenoconazole 11.4 SC?

1 ml per litre of water, or 200 ml per acre in 200 litres of water. Use 15 ml per 15-litre knapsack pump. This matches the originator (Syngenta Amistar Top) label.

3. Is DIZOXY TOP the same as Amistar Top?

Yes — same composition (Azoxystrobin 18.2% + Difenoconazole 11.4% SC). Krishikranti DIZOXY TOP is a generic equivalent of Syngenta Amistar Top, offered at a more competitive price.

4. How does the Azoxystrobin and Difenoconazole combination work?

Azoxystrobin stops spore germination at the start of infection. Difenoconazole gets absorbed into plant tissue and stops fungal growth from inside. Together they give both preventive and curative control with longer residual protection.

5. How often should it be sprayed?

Every 10–14 days during disease pressure. Maximum 2 sprays per crop cycle, then rotate with a non-strobilurin fungicide to prevent resistance.

6. Can it be tank-mixed with insecticides?

Yes. Compatible with most insecticides and fungicides except strongly alkaline products. Always do a jar test first.

7. Is it safe for honeybees and pollinators?

It is comparatively low risk to bees at the recommended dose, but avoid spraying during peak pollinator activity hours and on open flowers in full bloom.

8. What is the difference between this combination and single Difenoconazole 25% EC?

Difenoconazole 25% EC is single-mode triazole. The Azoxystrobin + Difenoconazole combination adds Azoxystrobin's strobilurin action — wider spectrum, stronger preventive control, and slower resistance build-up.
