Crystal Kyoto Fungicide (Azoxystrobin 11% + Tebuconazole 18.3% SC)
The Ultimate Dual-Action Protection for Paddy, Chilli, and Vegetable Crops
Crystal Kyoto is a technologically advanced, broad-spectrum fungicide that combines the power of two active ingredients: Azoxystrobin and Tebuconazole. Designed for modern Indian farming, it offers a complete solution against tough fungal diseases like Sheath Blight, Anthracnose, and Rust.
Why it works: Unlike standard fungicides, Kyoto works in two ways. It prevents disease spores from germinating (preventive) and kills existing fungus inside the plant (curative). Plus, its unique "Phytotonic Effect" keeps your crop greener for longer, leading to better quality produce and higher yields.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Immediate "Kick-Back" Action: Stops active fungal infections in their tracks, even if the disease has already started spreading inside the leaf.
- ?️Dual-Power Protection: Combines Systemic and Translaminar action to cover both the upper and lower sides of leaves, ensuring no spot is left unprotected.
- ⏳The "Green Effect": Delays leaf yellowing (aging) and keeps the flag leaf green, which directly helps in filling more grains and improving vegetable shine.
- ?️Excellent Rainfastness: The advanced SC formulation absorbs quickly. It resists washing off even if it rains just 4 to 6 hours after spraying.
- ?Systemic Movement: Moves upward within the plant (acropetal action) to protect new leaves and shoots that grow after the spray.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Kyoto uses a synergistic dual-attack strategy to clear fungal infections from your field:
- Stops Energy Production (Azoxystrobin): It blocks the fungal cell's ability to breathe (mitochondrial respiration). This instantly kills germinating spores and prevents the fungus from penetrating the leaf.
- Destroys Cell Walls (Tebuconazole): It inhibits the production of ergosterol, a vital component of the fungal cell wall. This makes the cell membrane "leaky" and unstable, effectively killing established mycelium (fungal roots) inside the plant.
- Anti-Sporulant Action: The combined stress stops the fungus from producing new spores, preventing the disease from spreading to healthy plants in the field.
This multi-site action reduces the risk of resistance and provides a clean, disease-free crop.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Paddy (Rice) | Sheath Blight, Blast, Dirty Panicle (Glume Discoloration) |
| Chilli | Fruit Rot (Anthracnose), Powdery Mildew, Die-back |
| Wheat | Yellow Rust (Stripe Rust), Powdery Mildew |
| Onion | Purple Blotch, Stemphylium Blight |
| Tomato & Potato | Early Blight, Late Blight |
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 (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paddy / Wheat | 300 ml | 200 L | 1.5 ml | 20 - 30 |
| Chilli / Veggies | 240 - 300 ml | 200 L | 1.2 - 1.5 ml | 5 - 7 |
| Grapes / Cotton | 300 ml | 200 L | 1.5 ml | 7 - 15 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: For Paddy, spray at the "Booting to Heading" stage to protect the flag leaf. For Chilli, start spraying at the early flowering or fruit setting stage.
- Mixing: Always perform a small "Jar Test" before mixing with other chemicals. Do NOT mix with highly alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture.
- Coverage: Ensure uniform coverage. The SC formulation spreads well, but thorough application is key for the translaminar effect to work.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Avoid spraying near fish ponds as it is toxic to aquatic life.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Crystal Kyoto cure disease or just prevent it?
It does both. The Azoxystrobin prevents new infections, while Tebuconazole cures existing infections by killing the fungal mycelium inside the plant.
2. What is the "Green Effect" mentioned on the label?
The Azoxystrobin in Kyoto reduces the plant's stress hormones (ethylene). This keeps leaves green for longer, allowing the plant to produce food for a longer period, resulting in higher yield and better grain quality.
3. How soon will it be rainfast?
Kyoto becomes rainfast within 4 to 6 hours after application. If it rains after this period, you do not need to re-spray.
4. Can I mix Kyoto with insecticides?
Yes, it is generally compatible with common insecticides like Imidacloprid and Thiamethoxam. However, always do a physical compatibility test (Jar Test) first.
5. How many times can I use it in one season?
To prevent resistance, do not apply Kyoto more than two consecutive times. Rotate with fungicides that have different modes of action (like Mancozeb).
