EBS Tucol Fungicide - Propineb 70% WP

EBS Tucol is a broad-spectrum contact fungicide containing Propineb 70% WP, belonging to the Dithiocarbamate group. Once applied, it forms a thin protective layer on the leaf surface that prevents fungal spores from germinating and infecting the plant. It works at multiple sites in fungal metabolism simultaneously, disrupting respiration, making it nearly impossible for fungi to develop resistance. EBS Tucol fungicide also contains Zinc as part of its chemical structure, which improves crop immunity, supports greener leaves, and enhances overall produce quality. Available in multiple pack sizes, it is a trusted and affordable fungal disease management solution for Apple, Potato, Chilli, Grapes, Tomato, Paddy, and other crops across India.
