Kasu-B Fungicide
Kasu-B Fungicide is a specialized antibiotic-based bactericide containing Kasugamycin 3% SL (Soluble Liquid), developed to effectively manage destructive bacterial diseases in crops like rice, tomato, chilli, and citrus. Unlike conventional fungicides, Kasu-B specifically targets bacterial pathogens by inhibiting protein synthesis, thereby stopping disease progression at the source.
It is widely trusted for controlling Bacterial Leaf Blight, Bacterial Leaf Spot, and Citrus Canker, especially in humid and high-disease-pressure conditions where bacterial infections spread rapidly.

Kasu-B Fungicide Features and Benefits
Highly Effective Against Bacterial Diseases: Specifically designed to combat bacterial infections that are not controlled by regular fungicides.
Systemic & Translaminar Activity: Absorbed into plant tissues and moves within the leaf, ensuring internal protection.
Prevents Disease Spread: Stops bacterial multiplication by blocking protein synthesis in pathogenic bacteria.
Ideal for Humid Conditions: Performs efficiently in warm and high-moisture environments where bacterial diseases thrive.
Resistance Management Tool: Useful in rotation programs to manage bacterial resistance when used as per label recommendations.
Crop Safety: Safe on recommended crops when applied at prescribed doses.
Mode of Action
Kasugamycin belongs to the aminoglycoside antibiotic group. It works by inhibiting protein synthesis in bacteria, preventing their growth and reproduction. This targeted mechanism makes it highly effective against plant pathogenic bacteria while minimizing impact on crops.
Usage and Crop Recommendations
| Crop | Target Diseases | Dosage/Ha | Dilution in Water | Waiting Period |
