Active ingredients and dual biochemical action
Nativo pairs two complementary modes of action: Trifloxystrobin acts as a respiration inhibitor (QoI, FRAC Group 11), blocking fungal mitochondrial electron transport to halt spore germination. Tebuconazole is a demethylation inhibitor (DMI, FRAC Group 3) that halts fungal ergosterol biosynthesis, arresting mycelial expansion.
- Tebuconazole (50%): Systemic triazole providing curative and eradicant fungal eradication.
- Trifloxystrobin (25%): Mesostemic strobilurin delivering strong surface binding, translaminar penetration, and crop greening.
- Water Dispersible Granules (WG): High-purity formulation dissolving rapidly without dust.
Target crops and major disease complexes
- Paddy (rice): Sheath blight, leaf and neck blast, and false smut.
- Chili: Anthracnose fruit rot and powdery mildew.
- Tomato: Early blight and Septoria leaf spot.
- Mango: Powdery mildew and anthracnose blossom blight.
Application timing and label compliance
Apply at the earliest sign of disease or preventively during weather conditions favorable to blight outbreaks. Ensure uniform foliar coverage using clean water. Always follow CIBRC registered label rates, use personal protective equipment, and adhere to recommended pre-harvest intervals.

Common questions
What are the active ingredients in Bayer Nativo?
Nativo contains Tebuconazole 50% and Trifloxystrobin 25% in water dispersible granule (WG) formulation.
Does Nativo control false smut in paddy?
Yes, applied at early boot leaf to panicle emergence stage, Nativo is highly effective against false smut and blast in paddy.
What is the mesostemic property of Trifloxystrobin?
Mesostemic action allows the chemical to bind firmly to waxy leaf cuticles, providing rainfast surface protection and translaminar penetration.
