Krishikranti HERITAGE-70 Thiophanate Methyl 70% WP Systemic Fungicide

Krishikranti HERITAGE-70 (Thiophanate Methyl 70% WP) is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide with triple action  preventive, curative, and eradicative. Quickly absorbed by the plant, translocated through the xylem, and active inside the tissue against a wide range of fungal diseases. One of the most trusted molecules for powdery mildew, anthracnose, scab, Fusarium wilt, and leaf spot control across fruits, vegetables, cereals, and ornamentals.

Mode of Action

• Systemic absorption : Thiophanate Methyl is converted in the plant to its active form (carbendazim/MBC), which moves through the xylem and reaches new growth.
• Cell-level action : disrupts fungal cell division by binding to β-tubulin in the fungus, stopping growth and sporulation.
• Triple effect : preventive (stops new infection), curative (heals existing disease), and eradicative (kills established lesions).
• Phytotonic boost : sulphur atom in the molecule provides additional plant vigour and greener leaves.

Benefits : Thiophanate Methyl 70% WP

• Triple-action formula : preventive + curative + eradicative in one product.
• Strong on Fusarium wilt & root rot : works as soil drench and seed treatment, reaching internal vascular diseases.
• Best-in-class for powdery mildew, scab, and anthracnose in apples, grapes, cucurbits, and chilli.
• Quick dissolving WP : uniform suspension in spray tank, even coverage.
• Phytotonic effect : keeps leaves greener and stems stronger.
• Low toxicity (Green Label) : safer for users, livestock, and beneficial insects.
• Versatile use : foliar spray, seed treatment, soil drench, seedling dip, and post-harvest treatment.
• Cost-effective : only 200 g per acre at standard dose; competitive pricing vs Roko, Topsin-M, and Heritage branded equivalents.
