Dhanucop - Copper Oxychloride 50% WP - Dhanuka

Dhanuka Dhanucop Fungicide Overview

Dhanuka Dhanucop contains Copper Oxychloride 50% WP, a protective multi-site contact fungicide and bactericide. Slow release of copper ions helps protect treated surfaces from labelled fungal and bacterial diseases. The wettable powder must be mixed and kept agitated for even coverage.

Use note: Use only on the crop–disease combinations printed on the current Indian label. Begin protectively or at the first sign of disease. The pack label controls dose, number of sprays, interval, pre-harvest requirement and any fruit-tree safener direction.

Key Product Benefits

• Multi-site protection: FRAC M01 activity helps protect against a wide range of labelled fungal and bacterial diseases.
• Protective surface coverage: Fine wettable-powder deposits adhere to leaves and release copper ions gradually.
• Broad registered crop range: Label uses include selected fruit, plantation, vegetable, potato, rice and tobacco diseases.
• Resistance stewardship: Multi-site copper activity is useful within label-compliant disease-management programmes.
• Store pack: This listing offers a 500 g variant.

Technical Specifications

How Dhanucop Works

Copper ions released on the treated plant surface interfere with multiple enzyme and protein processes in susceptible pathogens. Because the product acts mainly where it is deposited, complete and uniform coverage is important. It is primarily preventive and should not be described as a systemic rescue treatment.

India Label: Crops and Diseases

General regulatory rate: Many listed uses specify 2.5 kg/ha in 750–1000 L water. Cardamom, coffee and tea have different label rates and water volumes; use their exact pack directions rather than the general rate. PHI is not stated in the cited label.

Application Guide

• Premix the measured WP in a small volume of water to form a smooth slurry, then add it to the partly filled spray tank.
• Maintain agitation and apply as a uniform foliar spray with thorough coverage of vulnerable plant surfaces.
• Use protectively or at early disease appearance; follow the current label for repeat timing and maximum applications.
• For fruit trees, retain any label-specified safener instruction; do not improvise oil or tank mixtures.

Safety and Stewardship

• Wear label-specified protective clothing and avoid inhaling wettable-powder dust or spray mist.
• Copper fungicides are hazardous to fish and aquatic organisms; keep spray, runoff and wash water away from ponds and aquaculture.
• Do not mix with another product unless the current labels permit it and compatibility is confirmed.
• Keep away from children, food and feed; store and dispose of the container exactly as directed.
