Benomyl 50% WP is a highly effective, broad-spectrum systemic fungicide formulated as a wettable powder. As a carbamate-based compound, it offers protective, curative, and eradicative action against a wide range of fungal diseases affecting fruit trees, vegetables, and ornamental crops. Once applied, Benomyl is absorbed into plant tissues and converted to Carbendazim, enhancing its residual and systemic activity.
If you're looking for a versatile fungicide that works for foliar application, seed treatment, and soil drenching, Benomyl 50% WP delivers reliable disease control while promoting healthy plant growth.

Benomyl works by interfering with fungal DNA synthesis, specifically targeting the process of nucleoside production. Upon application, it quickly transforms into Carbendazim within plant tissues, which inhibits mitotic spindle formation during fungal cell division. This systemic action helps prevent the growth and spread of harmful fungal pathogens both inside and on the surface of plants.
Suitable crops:
Benomyl 50% WP is a key tool in integrated disease management (IDM) programs and supports resistance management when rotated properly with fungicides of different modes of action.
