Buonos - Tebuconazole 38.39% w/w SC - Bayer

Bayer Buonos: Product Overview

Buonos is a Bayer fungicide containing Tebuconazole 38.39% SC. Tebuconazole is a systemic triazole fungicide classified as a demethylation inhibitor in FRAC Group 3.

Bayer India describes Buonos as a broad-spectrum product with prophylactic, curative and eradicative efficacy. Its current product page features rice and tomato among the recommended crops and lists several fungal disease targets. The current physical label remains the final authority for matching a crop to a disease and for every operational direction.

Verified Product Features

• Systemic action: tebuconazole is absorbed by treated plant tissue and acts within the plant.
• Group 3 mode of action: Bayer states that the active ingredient works as a DMI, interfering with fungal sterol formation and limiting further growth.
• Broad disease listing: the official Bayer page names powdery mildew, yellow rust, Alternaria blight, sheath blight, Tikka leaf spot, early blight, fruit anthracnose, Cercospora or frog-eye leaf spot and purple blotch.
• Label-led selection: a disease named on the product page must still be paired with its registered crop and directions on the physical label.
• Three store sizes: Mana Agri Mart currently offers 250 ml, 500 ml and 1 litre variants.

Technical Specifications

How Buonos Works

Fungi require sterols to build and maintain functional cell membranes. Bayer explains that tebuconazole acts as a demethylase inhibitor and interferes with this process, inhibiting fungal reproduction and further growth. This biochemical target places tebuconazole in FRAC Group 3.

Products in the same FRAC group can share cross-resistance risk. Do not treat repeated Group 3 applications as a complete resistance strategy. Follow the physical label and use an agronomist-led disease-management programme with effective non-cross-resistant modes of action where appropriate.
