No middleman ensures best quality at wholesale prices.
Colts Fungicide (Sulphur 40% SC) from Darrick Insecticides Limited is a trusted contact fungicide and miticide. Specially formulated as a colloidal suspension, it has ultra-fine sulphur particles (<5 micron) that spread evenly and stick longer on plant surfaces. This ensures superior protection compared to conventional dusting sulphur.
When sprayed, Colts creates a thin protective film over leaves, stems, and fruits. This film prevents fungal spores from germinating and also controls harmful mites. It is highly effective against powdery mildew, leaf spot, and rust across several crops.
Colts is safe for tender leaves and fruits, easy to mix, and compatible with common sprayers. Farmers across India rely on it for crops like grapes, mango, groundnut, cotton, rose, tea, cumin, sorghum, beans, and opium. It not only controls fungal diseases but also contributes sulphur nutrition for healthier, high-yielding crops.
