Key Features:

  • Broad-spectrum control: Magnite effectively controls a wide range of fungal diseases, providing comprehensive protection for various crops.
  • Systemic action: Magnite exhibits systemic action, penetrating the plant tissues and moving throughout the plant, ensuring control of both foliar and internal pathogens.

  • Resistance management: Magnite's combination of two active ingredients with different chemical classes and modes of action helps prevent the development of resistance in fungi.

Active Ingredients:

Magnite contains two active ingredients:

  • Azoxystrobin: A strobilurin fungicide that acts by inhibiting mitochondrial respiration in fungi.
  • Difenoconazole: A triazole fungicide that acts by disrupting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes.

Application:

Magnite is recommended for use as a foliar spray on a variety of crops, including vegetables, fruits, cereals, and ornamentals. Please refer to the product label for specific application instructions and dosage recommendations for each crop and disease.
