Hexahit - Hexaconazole 5% EC - HPM

HPM Hexahit Hexaconazole 5% EC Fungicide Overview

HPM Hexahit is a systemic fungicide containing Hexaconazole 5% EC. HPM describes it as a broad-spectrum product with protective and curative activity against susceptible fungal diseases.

HPM lists label-directed uses in apple, rice, groundnut, mango, soybean, tea and grapes. Match the crop and disease on the current physical label before application; a use listed for one crop must not be transferred to another.

Available packs on Mana Agri Mart: 250 ml, 500 ml and 1 litre.

Why Choose HPM Hexahit?

• Verified formulation: Hexaconazole 5% in an emulsifiable-concentrate formulation.
• Systemic activity: the active ingredient is absorbed by treated plant tissue and acts within the plant against susceptible fungi.
• Protective and curative positioning: HPM describes both actions when the product is used at the authorised crop, timing and rate.
• Seven HPM-listed crop uses: apple, rice, groundnut, mango, soybean, tea and grapes.
• Resistance-aware information: the FRAC Group 3 classification is stated clearly so growers can follow label-led DMI stewardship.

Technical Specifications

How It Works: Mode of Action

Hexaconazole is a FRAC Group 3 demethylation-inhibitor fungicide. It interferes with the fungal C14-demethylase enzyme used in sterol biosynthesis, disrupting formation and function of membranes required by susceptible fungi.

1. Deposition and absorption: the correctly diluted EC spray reaches and is absorbed by treated plant surfaces.
2. Systemic movement: absorbed active ingredient moves within treated tissue according to its systemic properties.
3. Sterol inhibition: Group 3 activity interferes with fungal membrane development, helping stop susceptible disease growth when used at the authorised timing.

Resistance note: FRAC considers DMIs that act at the same target site to be cross-resistant within the group. Follow the current label's maximum applications and use effective, authorised non-cross-resistant modes of action in the disease programme where directed.

Dosage and Application Guide

Use the exact crop-specific dose, dilution, spray-water volume and pre-harvest interval printed on the current physical label. HPM's online recommendation table contains inconsistent dose-unit formatting for this liquid EC product, so its numerical entries are not reproduced here.

• Confirm the use: apply only where the current label matches both the crop and disease.
• Timing: use at the label-directed preventive or early disease stage; do not treat severe infection by simply increasing the dose.
• Mixing: add the measured product to clean water in the label-directed sequence and maintain agitation for a uniform emulsion.
• Coverage: use the authorised water volume, nozzle and pressure to cover susceptible plant surfaces evenly without runoff or drift.
• Compatibility: do not tank mix unless both current labels and an authorised adviser confirm compatibility, crop safety and the correct sequence.
• Intervals: follow the label's re-treatment interval, maximum applications, re-entry period and waiting period for the specific crop.
