Indofil Sprint

Indofil Sprint – Broad-Spectrum Systemic & Contact Fungicide for Seed & Soil-Borne Diseases

Indofil Sprint is a powerful combination fungicide designed to protect crops against a wide range of seed-borne and soil-borne fungal diseases. It combines the systemic action of Carbendazim 25% WP with the contact action of Mancozeb 50%, ensuring both preventive and curative control. Sprint enhances seed germination, crop establishment, and provides essential micronutrients for plant vigor.

Key Characteristics

Technical Name: Mancozeb 50% + Carbendazim 25% WP
Formulation Type: Wettable Powder (WP)
Mode of Action:

• Mancozeb: Contact fungicide that oxidizes and disrupts fungal enzyme systems by reacting with sulphahydral groups.

• Carbendazim: Systemic fungicide that inhibits spindle formation during fungal cell division, preventing reproduction.
  Mode of Entry: Contact and systemic
  Application Method: Seed treatment
  Micronutrient Supply: Provides Mn (Manganese) and Zn (Zinc) as added plant nutrition

How Indofil Sprint Works

Upon application, Mancozeb forms a protective coating on the seed surface, preventing fungal spores from entering. Carbendazim penetrates the seed to protect it internally from fungal pathogens. Together, they:

• Disrupt fungal metabolism and cell division

• Kill or inhibit pathogens responsible for rot and blight

• Create a disease-free zone around germinating seeds and young roots

• Enhance early plant vigor and uniform germination

Key Features and Benefits
