Tilt Fungicide
Tilt Fungicide is a highly effective systemic fungicide powered by Propiconazole 25% EC, designed to control a broad spectrum of fungal diseases in cereals, fruits, and plantation crops. Developed and marketed globally by crystal, Tilt is widely trusted for its rapid systemic movement, long residual protection, and strong curative action.
Tilt works by inhibiting ergosterol biosynthesis in fungi, disrupting cell membrane formation and stopping disease development at its source. It is particularly effective against rusts, leaf spots, powdery mildew, and sheath blight, making it a reliable solution for high-value crops.

Tilt Fungicide Features and Benefits
Strong Systemic Action
Absorbed rapidly by leaves and stems and translocated upward through xylem, protecting new growth.
Curative & Preventive Control
Controls fungal infections even after early infection stages and prevents further disease spread.
Long Residual Protection
Provides extended disease protection, reducing the need for frequent sprays.
Broad-Spectrum Efficacy
Highly effective against Rusts, Powdery Mildew, Leaf Spots, Anthracnose, and Sheath Blight.
Rain Fastness
Becomes rainfast within approximately 1–2 hours after application.
Resistance Management Tool
Belongs to FRAC Group 3 (DMI). Should be rotated with fungicides of different modes of action for sustainable resistance management.
Mode of Action – Research Insight
Propiconazole inhibits C-14 demethylation in sterol biosynthesis. By blocking ergosterol production, it weakens fungal cell membranes, stopping mycelial growth and sporulation. Its systemic movement ensures internal plant protection rather than just surface-level coverage.
