Item description
Krishi Rasayan V3: Product Overview
Krishi Rasayan V3 is a fungicide containing Validamycin 3% L for the registered management of sheath blight in rice. Krishi Rasayan lists a dose of 400 ml per acre.
Validamycin is classified by FRAC in Group U18, a glucopyranosyl antibiotic group. The detailed mode of action remains unclassified; trehalase inhibition and host-defence induction are proposed. This page therefore avoids unsupported systemic, translaminar, instant-action, residual-duration or yield claims.
The checked manufacturer direction is limited to rice sheath blight. Do not extend V3 to another crop, disease, dose or application method without the current physical label.
Why Choose V3?
- Verified identity: Official Krishi Rasayan sources list V3 as Validamycin 3% L.
- Defined crop and disease: The checked use is rice sheath blight.
- Manufacturer acre rate: 400 ml per acre is published without inventing a per-litre conversion.
- FRAC classification: Group U18 helps distinguish same-group substitutes from true rotation products.
- Multiple live packs: This listing offers 100 ml, 250 ml, 500 ml and 1 litre packs.

How Validamycin Works
FRAC keeps Validamycin in Group U18 and describes its detailed mode of action as unknown, with trehalase inhibition and host-defence induction proposed. Krishi Rasayan describes V3 as a non-systemic antibiotic fungicide with contact action against rice sheath blight. These classifications explain the product type; they do not guarantee a result under every field condition.
Verified Use and Dose

| Rice | Sheath blight | 400 ml per acre | Follow current label | Follow current label |
No universal ml-per-litre rate, water volume, PHI, spray interval, re-entry period or spray count is published here.
Application and Safety Guidance
- Confirm the crop, disease and rate on the current physical pack before use.
- Measure the treated area accurately. Do not convert the acre dose into a pump dose unless the label also states the spray-water volume.
- Follow the label for timing, mixing order, equipment, repeat-use limits, PHI, re-entry, PPE, first aid, storage and disposal.
- Do not assume tank-mix compatibility. Use only combinations explicitly supported by the current labels.
Resistance Management
Other Validamycin 3% L brands are same-active, same-group substitutes rather than rotation partners. For resistance management, select a different-group standalone fungicide only when its own current Indian label covers rice sheath blight and follow all label directions.
