Active composition and dual biochemical action
- Active ingredients: Azoxystrobin 18.2% (strobilurin, FRAC Group 11 / QoI) + Difenoconazole 11.4% SC (triazole, FRAC Group 3 / DMI).
- Azoxystrobin mode of action: Blocks mitochondrial respiration by binding to cytochrome bc1 (Complex III), stopping fungal spore germination and energy generation.
- Difenoconazole mode of action: Inhibits ergosterol biosynthesis in fungal cell membranes, stopping mycelial expansion inside plant tissues.
- Physiological greening effect: Azoxystrobin enhances nitrate reductase activity and delays leaf senescence, boosting photosynthesis and grain filling.
Target fungal diseases and crop spectrum
- Rice (Paddy): Dual control of blast (leaf blast and neck blast) and sheath blight.
- Chilli: Controls anthracnose (fruit rot / die-back) and powdery mildew.
- Tomato: Highly effective against early blight (Alternaria solani) and late blight (Phytophthora infestans).
- Maize / Corn: Controls banded leaf and sheath blight and Turcicum leaf blight.
- Grapes and Apples: Manages powdery mildew, anthracnose, and scab.
Application timing, spraying technique, and safety
- Spraying timing: Apply preventively at the onset of disease-favorable weather or upon observing initial disease lesions.
- Equipment: Spray with a knapsack or motorized mist blower using hollow-cone nozzles for complete foliar coverage.
- Water volume: Use 150 to 200 litres of clean water per acre for field crops and 400 to 500 litres per acre for fruit orchards.
- Resistance management: Rotate with non-strobilurin and non-triazole contact fungicides such as Mancozeb.

Common questions
What is the chemical composition of Godiwa Super fungicide?
Godiwa Super contains Azoxystrobin 18.2% + Difenoconazole 11.4% SC, combining a strobilurin with a triazole.
Which major diseases are controlled by Godiwa Super?
It controls blast and sheath blight in paddy, anthracnose and powdery mildew in chilli, and early blight in tomato.
What is the greening effect of Godiwa Super?
Azoxystrobin enhances nitrogen assimilation and delays leaf aging, keeping crops greener and supporting higher photosynthesis.
Can Godiwa Super cure existing fungal infections?
Yes, while primarily preventive, its Difenoconazole component provides strong curative action against active mycelial growth.
