Dual Chemistry and Disease Spectrum
Nativo combines a triazole (Tebuconazole, FRAC Group 3) with a strobilurin (Trifloxystrobin, FRAC Group 11). Tebuconazole translocates acropetally to inhibit fungal ergosterol biosynthesis, while Trifloxystrobin locks onto the leaf surface cuticle, redistributing via vapor action to inhibit mitochondrial respiration.
This combination delivers exceptional curative action along with a protective barrier against reinfection.
- Paddy: Sheath blight (Rhizoctonia solani), leaf blast, and neck blast (Magnaporthe oryzae).
- Wheat: Yellow rust (Puccinia striiformis) and powdery mildew.
- Chilli: Anthracnose fruit rot and powdery mildew.
- Mango: Powdery mildew and anthracnose during panicle emergence.
- Plant health: Imparts physiological benefits, promoting greener leaves and clean, lustrous grains.
Application Stage and Spray Best Practices
For optimal disease management, Nativo should be applied preventatively or at the earliest sign of disease development before extensive lesion necrosis occurs.
Protecting the flag leaf and developing ears ensures high grain weight and milling recovery.
- In paddy, apply at boot leaf to panicle emergence stage to protect the flag leaf and developing grains.
- Ensure thorough spray coverage using clean, neutral pH water and calibrated hollow cone nozzles.
- Observe label pre-harvest intervals (PHI) to maintain food safety and export residue standards.

Common questions
What active ingredients make up Nativo fungicide?
Nativo contains Tebuconazole 50% + Trifloxystrobin 25% WG, combining a systemic triazole with a mesostemic strobilurin.
How does Nativo control neck blast in paddy?
Its systemic and surface redistribution protects emerging panicles from fungal spore germination, preventing neck rot and empty grain development.
Does Nativo enhance crop foliage appearance?
Yes, the strobilurin component improves photosynthetic efficiency and chlorophyll retention, giving plants a healthier green canopy and cleaner grains.
