GARUDA

(Contact Wettable Powder)

GARUDA is a high-efficacy contact fungicide formulated to protect crops from a wide range of foliar fungal diseases that spread rapidly under moist and humid conditions. Its wettable powder formulation ensures strong surface coverage, forming a protective shield that prevents fungal spores from germinating on plant tissues.

GARUDA acts at multiple sites on fungal cells, making it highly effective as a preventive treatment and reducing the risk of resistance development.

By safeguarding foliage from early infection, GARUDA helps maintain healthy leaves, supports photosynthetic efficiency, and contributes to improved overall crop growth and productivity.
