FAQ

1. What is Hexaconazole?

Hexaconazole is a systemic triazole fungicide that controls a broad spectrum of fungal diseases in crops. It works by inhibiting ergosterol biosynthesis, a key component of fungal cell membranes.

2. What Are the General Uses of Hexaconazole?

Hexaconazole is primarily used to:

  • Prevent and control powdery mildew, rusts, and leaf spots

  • Treat blight, scab, and sheath blight

  • Protect cereals (like rice and wheat), fruits, vegetables, and plantation crops (like tea and coffee)

3. What Are the Uses of Hexaconazole 5% SC?

Hexaconazole 5% SC (Suspension Concentrate) is used for:

  • Sheath blight in rice

  • Powdery mildew in mango, grapes, and cucurbits

  • Rusts and leaf spots in groundnut and soybean

Its suspension form enhances leaf coverage and absorption.

4. What Are the Uses of Hexaconazole 5% EC?

Hexaconazole 5% EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate) is used for:

  • Sheath blight, blast, and brown leaf spot in rice

  • Anthracnose, powdery mildew, and leaf spots in fruit crops

The EC formulation ensures better penetration in plant tissues.

5. What Is Hexaconazole’s Mode of Action?

Hexaconazole inhibits the enzyme C14-demethylase in fungi, a key player in ergosterol synthesis. Without ergosterol, fungal cell membranes cannot form properly, leading to cell leakage and death.

6. What Are the Uses of Captan 70% + Hexaconazole 5% WP?

This WP (Wettable Powder) combination:

  • Offers protective and curative action

  • Used in fruit crops (e.g., apple, mango) against anthracnose, scab, and leaf spot

  • Provides both contact (Captan) and systemic (Hexaconazole) protection

7. What Are the Uses of Hexaconazole 4% + Zineb 68% WP?

This mix is effective for:

  • Downy mildew, leaf spots, and rusts in vegetables and fruits

  • Zineb provides contact action, while Hexaconazole offers systemic protection

8. What Are the Uses of Hexaconazole 5% + Validamycin 2.5% SC?

This combination is specifically used for:

  • Sheath blight in rice

  • Validamycin targets Rhizoctonia solani, while Hexaconazole provides residual control

  • Excellent for integrated disease management

9. What Are the Uses of Imidacloprid 18.5 + Hexaconazole 1.5 FS?

This FS (Flowable concentrate for Seed treatment) combo:

  • Protects seeds and seedlings from both insect pests and soil-borne fungal diseases

  • Imidacloprid: Systemic insecticide

  • Hexaconazole: Seedling disease prevention (e.g., damping-off)

10. What Are the Uses of Flubendiamide 3.5% + Hexaconazole 5% WG?

This WG (Water Dispersible Granule) formulation:

  • Combines insect and disease control for crops like chili, brinjal, tomato

  • Flubendiamide: controls lepidopteran larvae

  • Hexaconazole: manages leaf spots and mildew

11. What Is the Difference Between Hexaconazole and Tebuconazole?

Feature Hexaconazole Tebuconazole
Spectrum Broad-spectrum (especially rice) Broad-spectrum (especially cereals)
Persistence Moderate Longer residual activity
Mobility Systemic Systemic with strong root uptake
Primary Use Fungicide for rice and fruits Fungicide for wheat, barley, peanuts

12. How Does Hexaconazole Compare to Propiconazole?

Feature Hexaconazole Propiconazole
Crop focus Rice, fruits Cereals, turf, ornamental plants
Mode of action C14-demethylase inhibitor (same) Same mechanism
Rainfastness Moderate Slightly better

Both are triazoles, but Propiconazole is more effective on fusarium and leaf rust in cereals.

13. What Are the Uses of Captan 70% + Hexaconazole 5% WP?

This is a repeat of Question 6:

  • For anthracnose, scab, and leaf spots

  • Combines contact + systemic fungicide action for fruits and vegetables

14. What Are the Uses of Hexaconazole + Zineb?

The combination targets:

  • Alternaria leaf spots, early blight, downy mildew

  • Common in tomato, potato, cucurbits, and onions

Zineb acts on spore surfaces while Hexaconazole works internally.

15. How Is Hexaconazole Combined with Carbendazim?

This mix provides:

  • Dual systemic action: Hexaconazole (ergosterol inhibition) + Carbendazim (mitosis inhibition)

  • Broad-spectrum control against leaf spots, mildew, and blights

  • Common in rice, sugarcane, and pulses

16. What Is the Price of Captan 70% + Hexaconazole 5% WP?

The price varies by manufacturer and packaging. On average:

  • ₹700–₹1,200 per kg in India

  • International: $8–$20 per kg, depending on bulk orders

(Prices may vary by country, supplier, and regulation)

17. Is Hexaconazole Safe for Plants?

Yes, when used at recommended dosages, Hexaconazole is:

  • Safe for most plants

  • Non-phytotoxic in labeled crops

  • However, overuse or incorrect mixing can cause stress or burning

Always follow label instructions and observe pre-harvest intervals.
