Katyayani Concor is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide containing Difenoconazole 25% EC, belonging to the Triazole group. It stops fungal growth by blocking sterol biosynthesis in the fungal cell membrane — without sterols, the fungal cell wall collapses, and the pathogen dies. Katyayani Concor fungicide has translaminar activity, moving from the sprayed surface of the leaf through to the underside and protecting plant parts that were never directly sprayed. Concor fungicide works both as a preventive spray before disease appears and as a curative treatment after infection has already started. Difenoconazole 25% EC is effective on Apple, Paddy, Chilli, Cumin, Onion, Pomegranate, Grapes, Groundnut, and other fruit and vegetable crops across India.
Key Features & Benefits Of Katyayani Concor:
Systemic and Translaminar: Concor fungicide moves through the plant after absorption, reaching untreated plant parts and the underside of leaves for complete disease protection.

Broad Spectrum: Difenoconazole 25% EC controls Powdery Mildew, Scab, Die Back, Fruit Rot, Blight, Purple Blotch, Anthracnose, Loose Smut, Leaf Spot, and Rust in a single product.
Long Residual: Difenoconazole 25% EC provides prolonged disease protection from a single application, reducing the number of spray rounds needed per season.

How To Use Katyayani Concor — Application Instructions:
Shake the Concor bottle well before measuring the required dose.
Measure the required quantity at 1 ml per liter of water as per the dosage table.
Add the measured dose to a sprayer tank containing about one-third the required water volume.
Fill with remaining clean water while stirring continuously until the emulsion is completely uniform.
Apply evenly across all plant surfaces, covering upper and lower leaf surfaces and stems.
For Apple and Grapes, ensure the spray reaches all fruit surfaces and leaf undersides for complete Scab and Powdery Mildew protection.
Clean the sprayer thoroughly with fresh water after every use.

Controls Powdery Mildew, Scab, Sheath Blight, Die Back, Fruit Rot, Purple Blotch, Anthracnose, Leaf Spot, and Rust across Apple, Paddy, Chilli, Cumin, Onion, Pomegranate, Grapes, and Groundnut.
Q2. Is Katyayani Concor preventive or curative?
Both — Concor works as a preventive spray before disease appears and as a curative treatment after infection has already started. The translaminar movement inside the plant also gives it eradicant properties against established infections.
Q3. How long does Katyayani Concor remain effective?
A single spray provides prolonged disease protection due to its systemic movement inside the plant, translaminar activity, and long residual adhesion on treated surfaces — reducing the number of spray rounds needed per season.
Q4. Is Difenoconazole 25% EC effective against resistant fungal strains?
Yes — Difenoconazole 25% EC belongs to the Triazole chemical group and is effective against fungal strains that have developed resistance to Benzimidazole fungicides like Carbendazim, making it a reliable resistance management option.
Q5. What is the best time to spray Katyayani Concor?
Early morning or late evening when temperatures are cool — apply preventively before disease appears, especially during warm and humid weather when Powdery Mildew, Scab, and Leaf Spot spread fastest.
