Blastogan - Tricyclazole 75% WP - ADAMA

ADAMA Blastogan: Product Overview

ADAMA Blastogan is a systemic wettable-powder fungicide containing Tricyclazole 75% WP. ADAMA identifies Blastogan for the control of rice blast, and the Government of India major-use record lists this formulation for blast in paddy (rice).

ADAMA describes the active ingredient as readily absorbed through paddy roots and foliage. Tricyclazole belongs to the triazolobenzothiazole chemical family. FRAC classifies it as Group 16.1 / I1, an MBI-R fungicide that inhibits the reductase step in fungal melanin biosynthesis. It must not be called MBI-D, which is the separate FRAC 16.2 class.

The official Indian formulation record gives 300-400 g product per hectare in 500 litres of water per hectare and a 30-day pre-harvest interval. These complete hectare values are retained below without inventing a universal per-acre, per-litre or pump dose.

Why Choose Blastogan?

• Verified specialist role: the checked ADAMA and Government of India records identify Blastogan or its Tricyclazole 75% WP formulation for rice blast in paddy.
• Systemic product identity: ADAMA describes absorption through the roots and foliage of the paddy plant.
• Defined resistance group: FRAC Group 16.1 identifies the MBI-R mode of action and distinguishes same-active substitutes from genuine different-group alternatives.
• Exact official application basis: the crop, disease, formulation rate, water volume and PHI below come from the Government of India major-use table.
• Label-led information: unsupported promises about cure, rainfastness, protection duration, yield increase, grain quality or universal compatibility are intentionally excluded.

How Tricyclazole Works

1. Melanin-pathway targeting: the rice blast fungus relies on normal melanin formation in its infection structure.
2. Reductase inhibition: Tricyclazole interferes with the reductase step of fungal melanin biosynthesis, giving it the FRAC description MBI-R.
3. Penetration is impaired: disruption of this pathway reduces the pathogen's ability to form a normally functioning penetration structure and establish infection.

FRAC recommends preventive positioning of Tricyclazole within an anti-resistance program. Changing from Blastogan to another Tricyclazole 75% WP brand does not rotate the mode of action because both products remain Group 16.1.

Verified Indian Use, Dose, Water and PHI

PHI is the minimum interval between the last application and harvest. The checked Government of India row does not state a universal pump dose, application timing, repeat interval, maximum spray count, nozzle or re-entry period. Follow the current physical Blastogan label for those directions.

Application and Safety Guidance

• Confirm paddy, blast, the hectare rate, 500 L/ha water volume and 30-day PHI on the current physical Blastogan pack before use.
• Measure the treated field area accurately and calculate product and water from the label's complete area-based direction. Do not estimate dose from pack size.
• Because Blastogan is a wettable powder, avoid breathing dust while measuring. Follow the current pack for the required mixing order, agitation, equipment and nozzle.
• Follow the physical label for application timing, repeat interval, maximum number of applications, re-entry, first aid and every local restriction.
• This page makes no tank-mix, layering, compatibility or simultaneous-use recommendation. Any program alternative must be applied separately and only under its own current Indian label.
• Wear every item of personal protective equipment stated on the current label. Avoid skin, eye and inhalation exposure; wash thoroughly after handling and keep food, drink and tobacco away from the work area.
• Prevent product, spray liquid, equipment washings and empty packaging from entering ponds, drains, waterways or groundwater. Store in the original closed and labelled pack away from food, feed, medicines, children and animals.

Resistance-Management Guidance

Blastogan, Force11, Bindass and every other Tricyclazole 75% WP product share FRAC Group 16.1. They are same-active substitutes, not resistance rotations. When another fungicide treatment is justified, select a separately applied product from a genuinely different FRAC group only when that product's own current Indian label covers paddy blast. Follow each label's individual rate, water volume, timing, use limits and PHI.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does ADAMA Blastogan contain?
Tricyclazole 75% WP, a systemic FRAC Group 16.1 MBI-R fungicide.

What is its verified Indian use?
The checked ADAMA and Government of India records identify rice or paddy blast.

What is the verified dose?
The Government of India major-use record states 300-400 g formulation/ha in 500 L water/ha. Use the complete direction on the current physical pack.

What is the pre-harvest interval?
The registered paddy-blast row states 30 days.

Are Force11 and Bindass different-mode rotations?
No. They also contain Tricyclazole 75% WP and are same-active, Group 16.1 substitutes.

Can Blastogan be tank-mixed?
No tank-mix advice is provided here. Do not combine it with another input unless the current physical label or an authorised local recommendation explicitly permits that exact mixture.
