FMC Cilpyrox is a strong fungicide that provides systemic action effective against sheath blight and black scurf. It works by inhibiting an essential enzyme in the fungal mitochondrial respiratory chain, blocking the electron transport chain to starve the fungus of ATP and halt pathogen growth. The FMC Cilpyrox fungicide offers quick disease relief while being highly versatile to use, making it suitable for various farming methods.
Quick Action: Cilpyrox fungicide rapidly stops the growth of active fungal lesions on the sheath after absorption, providing quick disease relief.
Systemic Action: FMC Cilpyrox fungicide is absorbed by the roots and leaves, and is spread throughout the crop for even coverage.
Dual Application: FMC Cilpyrox fungicide can be used as a preventive and early curative application, making it highly versatile.
Rainfast Application: The product is rapidly absorbed by plant tissues, minimizing the risk of wash-off from unexpected rainfall.
Long Lasting: FMC Cilpyrox fungicide remains active within the plant system for longer periods after application.
Cilpyrox Fungicide Uses are focused on two specific diseases in two registered crops:
Crop | Target Disease | Application Method |
|---|---|---|
Paddy (Rice) | Sheath Blight (Rhizoctonia solani) | Foliar Spray |
Potato | Black Scurf (Rhizoctonia solani) | Foliar Spray or Seed Treatment |
The Cilpyrox Fungicide Dose Per Litre is 1 ml per litre of water — equivalent to 15 ml per 15L pump and 150 ml per acre in 150 litres of water.
Crop | Target Disease | Dose Per Acre | Per 15L Pump | Per Litre | Timing | PHI |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Paddy | Sheath Blight | 150 ml | 15 ml | 1 ml | Booting stage — at first appearance of Sheath Blight on lower sheaths | As per label |
Potato | Black Scurf | 150 ml | 15 ml | 1 ml | Foliar spray or seed treatment before planting | As per label |
Shake the bottle of FMC Cilpyrox well before measuring — the SC formulation settles on standing.
Measure 1 ml of Cilpyrox fungicide per litre of water required for the spray volume.
Mix the measured quantity into the sprayer tank with the required volume of clean water and stir well before spraying.
For Paddy Sheath Blight, use a hollow cone nozzle and direct the spray toward the lower sheaths at the water level — where Sheath Blight begins its upward spread.
Apply at the booting stage in Paddy, or immediately when the first water-soaked lesions appear on the lower leaf sheath.
For Potato seed treatment, mix FMC Cilpyrox at the recommended rate in sufficient water and treat seed tubers before planting — allow them to dry before placing in the soil.
Always wear gloves, a mask, and goggles while handling Cilpyrox fungicide.
Wash hands and all exposed skin with soap and water thoroughly after every application.
Apply FMC Cilpyrox in the early morning or late evening. For Paddy Sheath Blight, the optimum window is the booting stage — when the crop canopy has closed, and humidity inside the field is highest. Applying Cilpyrox fungicide preventively at this stage consistently outperforms curative applications made after visible lesions have already spread upward from the sheath.
Frequency of Application: Apply FMC Cilpyrox preventively or at the very first sign of disease. Cilpyrox fungicide provides long-lasting residual protection — one well-timed application at the booting stage is often sufficient for Paddy Sheath Blight in most seasons. A second spray may be needed in high-disease-pressure years. Rotate with fungicides from different FRAC groups in subsequent applications.
Re-Entry Period: Do not enter treated paddy fields for at least 24 hours after spraying without proper protective gear.
Tank-Mix Compatibility: FMC Cilpyrox is compatible with most insecticides used in Paddy crop protection. Always do a jar test before mixing with unfamiliar products. Do not apply near fish ponds — Thifluzamide 24% SC is toxic to aquatic organisms.
Wear proper safety gear — gloves, mask, and goggles — before handling or spraying Cilpyrox fungicide.
Do not eat, drink, or smoke while mixing or applying the product.
Avoid direct skin and eye contact — wash immediately with plenty of clean water if contact occurs.
Toxic to fish and aquatic organisms — never apply near or allow runoff into fish ponds, rivers, or irrigation channels.
