How DAIKO Fungicide Works

Kresoxim-Methyl belongs to the strobilurin group and works by blocking energy transfer inside fungal cells. It disrupts mitochondrial respiration, preventing ATP formation that fungi need to survive. Chlorothalonil complements this action by providing multi-site contact protection, helping reduce the chance of new spore germination.

Key Benefits

• Controls multiple fungal diseases with a single formulation
• Combines systemic and contact action for broader protection
• Translaminar movement helps protect the underside of leaves
• Helps prevent fresh spore germination and disease spread
• Supports dark green foliage and overall crop health
