Overview
Bayer Antracol® 70 WP is a multi-site contact fungicide formulated with Propineb 70% WP, belonging to the Dithiocarbamate (FRAC Group M3) class of fungicides. It acts as a protective fungicide by preventing fungal spores from germinating on plant surfaces before infection occurs.
Unlike many single-site fungicides, Antracol works through multiple biochemical pathways within fungal cells, making it an excellent tool for resistance management programs. The formulation also contains zinc, which supports healthy green foliage, improves crop vigor, and enhances overall plant health while effectively controlling fungal diseases.

About the Product
Antracol® forms a protective layer on the plant surface that prevents fungal spores from germinating and establishing infection. Because it acts at multiple sites within fungal metabolism, it effectively controls numerous fungal pathogens while reducing the risk of resistance development.
Its zinc-enriched formulation provides an additional nutritional benefit, promoting greener leaves, improved photosynthesis, better crop vigor, and enhanced productivity. It is widely recommended as part of integrated disease management (IDM) and integrated pest management (IPM) programs.
