Dual Chemical Chemistry and Disease Spectrum
Luna Experience combines Fluopyram (a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor, SDHI, FRAC Group 7) with Tebuconazole (a demethylation inhibitor, DMI triazole, FRAC Group 3). This dual-mode synergy disrupts fungal respiration and ergosterol biosynthesis simultaneously.
Its translaminar and systemic mobility ensures that fungal pathogens are suppressed even on unsprayed leaf undersides.
- Grapevines: Powdery mildew (Uncinula necator) and anthracnose.
- Chilli: Powdery mildew (Leveillula taurica) and anthracnose / fruit rot.
- Onion: Purple blotch (Alternaria porri) and Stemphylium leaf blight.
- Apple: Powdery mildew and scab management.
- Extended shelf life: Field applications reduce latent fungal infections, improving post-harvest fruit quality and transit durability.
Application Guidelines and Best Practices
For optimum crop protection, apply Luna Experience preventatively at the earliest visual onset of disease or during critical flowering and fruit set stages.
Rotating with fungicides having alternative modes of action delays the development of resistance in target fungal pathogens.
- Ensure uniform spray coverage using clean, neutral pH water and calibrated hollow cone nozzles.
- Adhere to the recommended pre-harvest intervals (PHI) to comply with domestic and export maximum residue limits.
- Wear personal protective gear including gloves, mask, and goggles during spray mixing and application.
