Sunsulf Fungicide (Sulphur 80% WDG) - Nichino India
The Ultimate Dual-Action Shield: Protects Crops from Fungus and Mites while Boosting Plant Health.
Sunsulf (Sulphur 80% WDG) is a premium, dust-free fungicide and miticide brought to you by Nichino India (Japan technology). Unlike old-fashioned sulphur dust that blows away, Sunsulf uses advanced "Water Dispersible Granule" technology. It dissolves instantly in water to create a powerful microscopic shield against Powdery Mildew and Mites (Acaricide). Plus, it feeds your plants with essential Sulphur, making them greener and healthier.
Best For: Grapes, Apples, Cumin (Jeera), Mangoes, and Vegetables.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Instant "Bloom" Dispersion: Advanced WDG technology allows granules to dissolve in water within seconds, ensuring a clog-free spray without dust.
- ?️Dual-Action Protection: Acts as both a Fungicide (for Mildew) and an Acaricide (for Mites), saving you the cost of two separate sprays.
- ⏳Resistance Fighter: As a Multi-Site Inhibitor (Group M2), it prevents pests from developing resistance, making it perfect for tank-mixing.
- ?️Superior Rainfastness: Micronized particles (2-6 microns) stick tightly to leaves, resisting wash-off from rain or wind better than powders.
- ?Nutrient Boost: Contains 80% Sulphur, the "4th Major Nutrient," which helps increase chlorophyll and gives crops a lush green color.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Sunsulf works through a unique triple-action mechanism (Contact, Vapor, and Stomach action) that targets pests on multiple fronts.
- Energy Blockade: The sulphur particles penetrate the fungal cell and disrupt its ability to breathe (respiration). This stops the production of energy (ATP), effectively starving the fungus.
- Vapor Phase Attack: Sunsulf releases microscopic sulphur vapors. These vapors can travel into hidden areas—like curled leaves or inside grape bunches—where normal spray droplets cannot reach, killing hidden mites and mildew.
- Toxic Conversion: Once inside the pest, the sulphur converts into Hydrogen Sulfide, which destroys the internal proteins of fungi and mites.
Note: This multi-site action makes it nearly impossible for pests to develop resistance.
Target Crops & Pests

|---|---|
| Grapes | Powdery Mildew, Mites |
| Apple & Mango | Powdery Mildew, Scab, Mites |
| Cumin (Jeera) & Vegetables | Powdery Mildew (Chharchya), Mites |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Note: Since Sunsulf is a solid granule, dosage is measured in Grams (g).
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grapes | 750 – 1000 g | 300 – 400 L | 2.5 g | 0 - 3 |
| Apples | 750 – 1000 g | 300 – 400 L | 2.5 g | 0 - 3 |
| Cumin / Veg | 750 – 1000 g | 300 – 400 L | 2.5 g | 0 - 3 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Sunsulf has a very short PHI.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply preventively (before disease appears) or at the very first sign of white powder. For Cumin, spray immediately if the weather turns cloudy during flowering.
- Mixing (The "No Oil" Rule): NEVER mix Sunsulf with Neem Oil, Mineral Oils, or EC formulations. Do not spray sulphur within 14 days of an oil spray, or it will burn the leaves.
- Coverage: Ensure uniform coverage. The vapor action will help reach hidden spots, but good spraying technique is key.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Avoid spraying when temperatures exceed 30°C to prevent leaf burn.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Sunsulf kill Mites as well as fungus?
Yes. Sunsulf is an effective Acaricide. Its vapor action blocks the spiracles (breathing holes) of mites, killing them effectively. It is a great 2-in-1 solution.
2. Can I mix Sunsulf with other chemicals?
Sunsulf is compatible with most insecticides (like Imidacloprid) and fungicides (like Mancozeb). However, strictly avoid oils, Bordeaux mixture, or highly alkaline products.
3. How is Sunsulf WDG better than Sulphur Dust?
Sunsulf WDG uses 80% less product per acre than dust (2kg vs 10kg), sticks better to leaves, covers more surface area (2-6 micron size), and doesn't blow away in the wind.
4. Will this help make my crop greener?
Yes. Sulphur is an essential plant nutrient. Using Sunsulf helps in the formation of chlorophyll, often resulting in a visible "greening" effect on the crop within days.
5. What is the dose for a 15-Litre spray tank?
For a standard 15-litre knapsack sprayer, mix approximately 35 to 40 grams of Sunsulf.
