HIKSA-5 is a systemic fungicide containing 5% Hexaconazole in suspension concentrate (SC) form. It is designed to provide effective control against a wide range of fungal diseases, including powdery mildew, rust, and leaf spots. HIKSA-5 promotes healthier plant growth by preventing fungal infections in crops like cereals, fruits, and vegetables.
Mode of Action:
Hexaconazole works by inhibiting ergosterol biosynthesis, a critical component of fungal cell membranes. This disruption weakens the fungal structure and prevents its development, leading to the cessation of infection. Its systemic nature allows it to be absorbed by the plant and transported to all parts, ensuring comprehensive protection.
Benefits:
