Picoxystrobin 22.5%SC

Effect of Picoxystrobin

Picoxystrobin mainly works by stopping the growth of harmful fungi and protecting crop health. First, it interferes with the way fungi obtain energy, so they cannot continue to spread. As a result, crop damage is effectively reduced. In addition, it helps prevent diseases before they appear and also controls them at an early stage. Therefore, because it acts quickly and provides long-lasting protection, Picoxystrobin is widely used on many crops to keep leaves healthy and improve yield and quality.

Picoxystrobin Mode of Action

Picoxystrobin works by blocking the energy production of fungal cells, which stops the fungi from growing and spreading. Specifically, it interferes with the fungi’s internal energy system, so they cannot produce the energy needed to survive. As a result, infected areas stop developing, and healthy parts of the crop are protected. This dual action—preventing new infections and controlling early infections—makes Picoxystrobin effective on many crops against a wide range of fungal diseases.

Residual Effectiveness

It provides long-lasting protection after application. It remains active on crop surfaces for several days, preventing new fungal infections while controlling early-stage disease. Moreover, because it spreads slightly within the leaf, it protects areas that were not directly sprayed. Consequently, farmers can rely on Picoxystrobin to maintain crop health, reduce the frequency of spraying, and improve yield and quality. Its combination of fast action and lasting effect makes it a reliable choice for many crops.

Safety and Compatibility

Picoxystrobin is generally safe for most crops when used according to the recommended rates. It rarely causes damage to leaves or fruit, even under normal field conditions. In addition, it is compatible with many commonly used fungicides and insecticides, allowing farmers to mix it in tank applications to control multiple issues at once. However, it should not be mixed with strongly alkaline products, and users should always follow label instructions to ensure safety.

Application Flexibility

Picoxystrobin can be applied in multiple ways, making it suitable for different crops and farming practices. Farmers can use it as a foliar spray to protect leaves, or apply it early to prevent disease outbreaks. Additionally, it works well in tank mixtures with other compatible pesticides, which allows for broader pest and disease control in a single application. Because it acts quickly and provides lasting protection, Picoxystrobin offers flexible options that help growers manage crop health efficiently while reducing labor and spraying frequency.
