Product Overview

Gretel (Nichino Chemical India) CARBENDAZIM 50% WP is a broad-spectrum fungicide that is effective against a wide range of fungal diseases in a variety of crops. It is a wettable powder (WP) formulation that contains the active ingredient carbendazim. Carbendazim is a systemic fungicide that is absorbed by the plant and moves throughout the plant to control fungal diseases. It works by inhibiting the biosynthesis of microtubules, which are essential for fungal cell division and growth. This disruption of cell division and growth leads to cell death and the control of fungal diseases.
