FAQ
What is Tricyclazole 40% SC and how does it work?
Tricyclazole 40% SC is a systemic
fungicide that works by inhibiting the biosynthesis of melanin in fungi, leading to the
disruption of the fungal cell wall and ultimately causing the death of the pathogen. It is
effective against a wide range of fungal diseases in crops such as rice, wheat, barley, and
sorghum.
How should Tricyclazole 40% SC be applied for maximum
effectiveness?
Tricyclazole 40% SC should be applied as a foliar spray at the
recommended dosage and timing as indicated on the product label. It is important to ensure
thorough coverage of the crop foliage to achieve optimal results. Avoid applying during
adverse weather conditions such as rain or high winds.
What are the benefits of using
Tricyclazole 40% SC in crop protection?
Tricyclazole 40% SC provides excellent
control of fungal diseases such as rice blast, powdery mildew, sheath blight, and leaf spot.
It offers systemic protection to the crop, resulting in long-lasting efficacy and improved
yield potential. Additionally, it has a low risk of resistance development when used as part
of an integrated pest management program.
Is Tricyclazole 40% SC safe to use in
agricultural settings?
Tricyclazole 40% SC is safe to use when applied according to
the instructions on the product label. It is important to follow all safety precautions such
as wearing protective clothing and equipment during handling and application. Always store
the product in a secure location away from children, pets, and food items.
What is
the recommended dosage of Tricyclazole 40% SC for different crops?
The recommended
dosage of Tricyclazole 40% SC may vary depending on the crop and the severity of the fungal
disease. It is important to consult the product label or a local agricultural extension
specialist for specific recommendations. In general, a lower dosage is recommended for
preventive applications, while a higher dosage may be necessary for curative
treatments.
What is the pre-harvest interval for crops treated with Tricyclazole 40%
SC?
The pre-harvest interval (PHI) for crops treated with Tricyclazole 40% SC is the
minimum amount of time that must elapse between the last application of the fungicide and
the harvest of the crop. The PHI may vary depending on the crop and the specific regulations
in your region. Always check the product label for the correct PHI to ensure compliance with
food safety standards.
Can Tricyclazole 40% SC be tank-mixed with other
pesticides?
Tricyclazole 40% SC can be tank-mixed with certain compatible pesticides
to enhance the spectrum of disease control or to improve the overall efficacy of the
treatment. However, it is important to conduct a compatibility test before tank-mixing with
other products to avoid any potential issues such as reduced efficacy or phytotoxicity.
Always follow the mixing instructions provided on the product labels.
What is the
shelf life of Tricyclazole 40% SC?
The shelf life of Tricyclazole 40% SC is typically
two to three years when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme
temperatures. It is important to check the product label for the specific expiration date
and to properly dispose of any expired or unused product according to local regulations.
Avoid storing the product near food, feed, or water sources.
How can I prevent the
development of resistance to Tricyclazole 40% SC in fungal populations?
To prevent
the development of resistance to Tricyclazole 40% SC in fungal populations, it is important
to rotate the fungicide with other effective modes of action with different biochemical
target sites. Avoid using Tricyclazole 40% SC as the sole method of disease control and
implement integrated pest management practices such as cultural controls and resistant crop
varieties. Regularly monitor the effectiveness of the fungicide and seek advice from a local
agronomist if resistance is suspected.
