Hexario is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide containing Hexaconazole 5% SC, belonging to the Triazole group. Once applied, it gets absorbed through leaves and stems and moves through the plant's vascular system — reaching every part of the crop, including new growth that was never directly sprayed. Hexaconazole 5% SC stops fungal growth by blocking ergosterol biosynthesis in the fungal cell membrane — without ergosterol, the fungal cell wall collapses, and the pathogen dies. Hexaconazole 5% SC systemic fungicide works as a preventive spray before infection starts, a curative treatment after infection has taken hold, and an eradicant that clears existing infections already visible on the crop. Hexario is especially effective against Powdery Mildew in Mango and Grapes, and Sheath Blight in Paddy — and is also widely used across Groundnut, Apple, and other crops across India.
Key Features & Benefits Of Hexario:
Triple Action: Hexario fungicide works as a preventive spray, curative treatment, and eradicant — stops new infections, cures existing ones, and eliminates visible disease already present on the crop.
Systemic and Translaminar: Hexaconazole 5% SC systemic fungicide is absorbed through leaves and moves through the entire plant, protecting untreated plant parts and new growth from fungal infection.
Antisporulant Effect: Hexario fungicide stops the fungus from producing and releasing new spores, preventing the disease from spreading to healthy plant parts and neighboring plants.
Long Residual: Hexaconazole 5% SC systemic fungicide provides up to 14 to 21 days of disease protection from a single application — reduces the frequency of repeat sprays.
Rainfast: Hexaconazole 5% SC is rapidly absorbed into plant tissue — remains effective even after light rainfall within 1 to 2 hours of application.
Safe for Environment: Hexario fungicide has low toxicity to mammals, fish, birds, and natural enemies — safe for use in IPM programs.
Wide Crop Coverage: Hexaconazole 5% SC systemic fungicide is registered for Mango, Grapes, and Paddy — widely used across Groundnut, Apple, Coffee, Chilli, Cotton, and other crops.

For Mango, ensure coverage reaches all panicles and new flush growth where Powdery Mildew first appears.
Wash the sprayer thoroughly with clean water after every use.
