Sold by Veggie Concept, Nigeria’s leading agricultural solutions provider, SAAF Fungicide is an essential tool for commercial and smallholder farmers seeking to safeguard their crops from devastating fungal infections. Active Ingredients of SAAF Fungicide Carbendazim 12%: A systemic fungicide (FRAC 1) that penetrates plant tissues, inhibiting fungal cell division and halting disease progression. It targets internal fungal growth, providing curative and preventative control. Mancozeb 63%: A contact fungicide (FRAC M3) that forms a protective barrier on plant surfaces, preventing fungal spore germination and disease establishment. Its multi-site action enhances broad-spectrum protection.

Dual Action Mechanism: Combines systemic (Carbendazim) and contact (Mancozeb) modes of action for comprehensive disease management, reducing the risk of resistance development. Prolonged Protection: Provides residual activity, protecting crops for 7–10 days post-application, ensuring sustained disease control.
