Biostadt Trigger Pro Fungicide

Systemic Triazole Fungicide for Important Crop Diseases

Biostadt Trigger Pro is a systemic fungicide containing Hexaconazole 5% SC. It belongs to the triazole group of fungicides and is designed for preventive and curative management of susceptible fungal diseases in recommended crops.

Hexaconazole is absorbed by treated plant tissues and interferes with sterol formation in susceptible fungi. Trigger Pro is particularly useful for managing sheath blight in paddy and powdery mildew in crops such as mango and grapes when applied according to the current label recommendation.

Recommended Crops, Diseases and Dosage

Water Volume and Waiting Period

Mode of Action

Hexaconazole is a systemic triazole fungicide belonging to the demethylation inhibitor group. It interferes with the biosynthesis of ergosterol, an important component required for normal fungal cell membrane development.

Disruption of sterol production limits normal growth and development of susceptible fungi, helping prevent further spread of infection when Trigger Pro is applied at the recommended disease stage.

Trigger Pro for Sheath Blight in Paddy

Sheath blight is an important fungal disease of paddy that can affect leaf sheaths and surrounding crop tissues. Under favourable conditions, infection can spread through a dense crop canopy and reduce healthy photosynthetic area.

Trigger Pro is recommended for sheath blight management in paddy. Uniform spray coverage of the lower and middle crop canopy is important because disease development commonly begins around the sheath region.

Trigger Pro for Powdery Mildew in Mango

Powdery mildew can affect tender shoots, flowers and developing fruit in mango. Disease pressure around flowering can interfere with normal reproductive development if infection becomes severe.

Trigger Pro can be applied according to the registered recommendation as part of a preventive and early-curative powdery mildew management program.

Trigger Pro for Powdery Mildew in Grapes

Powdery mildew is an important fungal disease in grapes that can affect leaves, shoots and developing bunches. Timely fungicide application and thorough crop coverage are important for effective disease management.

Use Trigger Pro according to the recommended rate and integrate it with other suitable disease-management practices.

How to Use Biostadt Trigger Pro

1. Identify the target fungal disease correctly before application.
2. Measure the crop-specific recommended quantity accurately.
3. Partially fill the spray tank with clean water.
4. Add the required quantity of Trigger Pro while maintaining agitation.
5. Add the remaining required water and mix thoroughly.
6. Apply uniformly over the target crop canopy.
7. Ensure good coverage of disease-prone plant surfaces.
8. Use the prepared spray mixture promptly.

Best Time to Apply

Trigger Pro is most useful when applied preventively or during the early stages of disease development. Regular crop scouting should be used to identify favourable disease conditions and initial symptoms.

Avoid delaying treatment until fungal infection becomes severe. Apply under suitable weather conditions and avoid spraying immediately before rainfall or during strong winds.

Application Tips

• Use the crop-specific label dose.
• Ensure thorough and uniform spray coverage.
• Use properly calibrated spraying equipment.
• Avoid unnecessary repeated applications of the same mode-of-action group.
• Follow the recommended waiting period before harvest.
• Observe all precautions stated on the current product label.

Fungicide Resistance Management

Hexaconazole belongs to the DMI group of fungicides. Where repeated disease-control treatments are necessary, use Trigger Pro as part of a planned fungicide program and rotate with suitable fungicides having different modes of action according to crop and disease recommendations.

• Wear suitable gloves, protective clothing, eye protection and a mask while mixing and spraying.
• Avoid direct contact with the concentrate and spray solution.
• Avoid inhaling spray mist.
