Fungi Shield
Description
Fungi Shield is a biochemical, biological fungicide developed by Hira Agro Industries. It is an aqueous liquid formulation containing Potassium Salt of Phosphonic Acid (40%), designed for effective management of a wide range of fungal diseases. Due to its unique molecular structure, the active ingredient is readily absorbed by plant tissues and translocated systemically, providing both preventive and curative action. Fungi Shield strengthens plant defense mechanisms while ensuring superior disease control with minimal environmental impact.
Mode of Action
Fungi Shield works through a dual mode of action:
- Direct antifungal activity, inhibiting spore germination and fungal growth.
- Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR), activating the plant’s natural defense responses against pathogenic attacks.
The phosphonic acid molecule, having one less oxygen atom than phosphoric acid, exhibits enhanced mobility within the plant system, resulting in faster uptake and improved efficacy.
