Tata Rallis Taqat is a broad-spectrum, combination fungicide containing Captan 70% + Hexaconazole 5% WP (Wettable Powder). It pairs a multi-site protective contact fungicide with an internal, triazole-class systemic curative fungicide to deliver complete crop defense.
Dual Mode of Action
Captan 70% (Phthalimide group – Multi-site Contact):
Acts as an exterior protective shield on foliage, stems, and fruits.
Disables essential fungal respiratory enzymes at multiple biochemical sites (FRAC Group M04), which prevents spore germination and makes resistance development unlikely.
Hexaconazole 5% (Triazole group – Systemic & Curative):
Absorbed rapidly through green leaf tissues and translocated acropetally (upward) via the plant's xylem vessels (FRAC Group 3).
Inhibits ergosterol biosynthesis in fungal cell membranes, stopping mycelial expansion and arresting existing internal infections.
Crop Usage & Recommended Dosage
Taqat provides protection and eradication against major Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Deuteromycetes fungal pathogens across all major crop segments.

Best Time to Spray
Application Window: Apply protectively before anticipated disease outbreaks, or at the earliest visible symptom (such as initial leaf spotting, blossom blight, or white powdery patches).
Daily Timing: Spray during early morning (before 9:00 AM) or late afternoon/evening (after 4:30 PM) to avoid midday heat and rapid droplet evaporation.
Weather & Rainfastness: Spray when wind is calm. Captan requires adequate time to dry and bind to the leaf surface; ensure a rain-free window of at least 2 to 3 hours after application.
Spray Repetition: Under high disease pressure or cloudy, humid conditions, repeat the spray after 10 to 14 days.
Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI): Maintain a waiting period of 7 to 15 days before harvesting edible produce (depending on specific crop guidelines).
Safety Precautions
Preparation & Slurry Mixing: Never pour dry powder directly into a full spray tank. Measure the required dose, mix it in a separate bucket with a small quantity of water to create a smooth, lump-free slurry, and pour the pre-mix into the half-filled tank while stirring continuously.
Compatibility: Do NOT mix Taqat with strongly alkaline chemicals (such as lime sulphur, Bordeaux mixture, or caustic formulations) or oil-based formulations, as alkaline hydrolysis rapidly degrades Captan and causes phytotoxicity.
Personal Protection (PPE): Wear a protective face mask, rubber gloves, eye goggles, long trousers, and footwear while measuring and spraying. Hexaconazole/Captan mixtures can irritate eyes and the respiratory tract upon direct exposure.
Application Discipline: Always spray downwind—never spray facing into the wind. Do not eat, drink, chew tobacco, or smoke during chemical handling and spraying.
Aquatic Safety: Highly toxic to aquatic organisms and fish. Prevent spray drift and never rinse containers or washing equipment near farm ponds, irrigation channels, or wells.
