Gezeko Fungicide (Tebuconazole 50% + Trifloxystrobin 25% WG)
The "Yield Booster" Dual-Action Fungicide for Rice, Mango, and Vegetables.
Gezeko (marketed as Gezeko 75WG) is a premium, broad-spectrum fungicide developed by FMC. It combines two powerful active ingredients: Tebuconazole (which cures infections from the inside) and Trifloxystrobin (which shields the plant from the outside).
Best For: Farmers who want to control tough diseases like Blast and Anthracnose while getting the "Greening Effect" for higher quality yields.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Instant Cure: Stops existing fungal growth immediately upon application (Curative action).
- ?️Double Shield: Protects the plant from both inside (systemic) and outside (mesostemic).
- ⏳Greening Effect: Keeps leaves green longer, boosting photosynthesis and grain filling.
- ?️Rainfast: Sticks firmly to the leaf surface within 2 hours, making it safe for monsoon use.
- ?Export Safe: Suitable for export crops when used according to the recommended PHI.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Gezeko uses a "Lock and Key" strategy to provide total protection:
- Systemic Action (Tebuconazole): Absorbed by the plant's green tissues, it travels upward (acropetal) to hunt down and kill hidden fungal infections inside the stem and leaves.
- Mesostemic Action (Trifloxystrobin): Locks onto the waxy leaf surface, creating a vapor shield that stops new fungal spores from landing or germinating.
- Energy Block: It cuts off the fungus's ability to produce energy (ATP), causing it to starve and die.
Result: Your crop is cleaned from the inside and shielded on the outside.
Target Crops & Pests

Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rice | 65g - 80g | 100 - 150 L | 0.5g - 0.8g | 35 Days |
| Mango | Varies (Tree size) | High Volume | 0.5g - 1.0g | 30 Days |
| Tomato | 80g - 100g | 150 - 200 L | 0.5g | 3 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply preventively (before disease appears) or at the very first sign of infection. For Rice, spray at the "Booting" stage for best results.
- Mixing: Dissolve the granules in a small bucket of water first, then add to the main tank. It dissolves easily without dust.
- Coverage: Ensure thorough coverage of the foliage. For diseases like Blast, ensure the neck of the panicle is covered.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How is Gezeko different from Nativo?
They share the same technical composition (Tebuconazole + Trifloxystrobin). Gezeko offers the same "Dual Action" and "Greening Effect" but is often preferred for its competitive pricing.
2. Does it help increase yield?
Yes. The "Greening Effect" helps the plant retain Nitrogen and Chlorophyll, leading to heavier grains and better quality produce.
3. Is Gezeko rainfast?
Yes. It becomes rainfast within 2 hours of application, making it reliable during the rainy season.
4. Can I mix it with insecticides?
Gezeko is compatible with most common insecticides. However, always perform a small physical mix test before preparing a full tank.
5. What is the shelf life?
The product typically has a shelf life of 2 years from the date of manufacture if stored in a cool, dry place.
