FAQ for WAGON-65
What disease does WAGON-65 control?
WAGON-65 specifically controls Apple Scab (Venturia inaequalis) — the most economically devastating apple disease causing fruit and leaf scab lesions and significant production and quality losses in apple orchards.
How does Dodine in WAGON-65 work?
Dodine is a guanidine compound that disrupts fungal cell membrane permeability, interfering with amino acid uptake and causing leakage of cellular contents, providing protective contact action against apple scab.
When should WAGON-65 be applied for apple Scab control?
Apply WAGON-65 preventively from early green tip stage through petal fall, at 7–10 day intervals during wet periods. Applications before and during infection periods give the best scab protection.
Is WAGON-65 suitable for use in high-rainfall apple regions?
Yes, WAGON-65 is specifically suited for apple scab management in high-rainfall hill regions (Himachal Pradesh, J&K, Uttarakhand) where wet weather creates prolonged scab infection risk periods.
Can WAGON-65 be tank-mixed with other apple fungicides?
Yes, WAGON-65 can be combined with other apple fungicides in a rotation program. Rotate with DMI triazoles and strobilurins to manage any potential resistance in Venturia inaequalis populations.
