Product Specifications

Key Features and Benefits

• Dual Triazole Combination: Contains Propiconazole and Difenoconazole for systemic fungicidal activity.
• Sheath Blight Management: Recommended for controlling sheath blight disease in paddy.
• Dirty Panicle Management: Helps manage dirty panicle disease in rice.
• Protective and Curative Action: Both active ingredients provide activity against susceptible fungal pathogens.
• Systemic Movement: Moves within treated plant tissues to support disease management.
• Healthy Tillers: The manufacturer highlights productive tiller development as a potential benefit of timely disease management.
• Flag Leaf Protection: Effective disease management helps maintain healthy flag leaves and crop growth.

Mode of Action

Champion combines two triazole fungicides belonging to FRAC Group 3. These fungicides inhibit sterol biosynthesis in susceptible fungi, interfering with fungal cell membrane development.

Propiconazole: A systemic foliar fungicide with protective and curative action. It is translocated upward through the plant's xylem.

Difenoconazole: A systemic fungicide with preventive and curative activity. It is absorbed by leaves and provides upward and translaminar movement within treated plant tissues.
