🧪Proxanil Insecticide Fungicide 45% SC (Propamocarb HCl 400 g/L + Cymoxanil 50 g/L) – Dual‑Action Blight Fungicide
Proxanil is a powerful systemic suspension concentrate fungicide, combining propamocarb hydrochloride (400 g/L, approx. 36–40%) and cymoxanil (50 g/L, approx. 4–5%). This double-acting formulation offers both preventative and curative control of downy mildew and late blight (Phytophthora infestans), particularly in potato and tomato crops.
It works rapidly—cymoxanil provides a kick-back (curative) effect with translaminar action, while propamocarb offers systemic, preventative protection by disrupting pathogen cell membrane synthesis,
🌿 Key Benefits
