- Tachigarin is a systemic fungicide designed to control soil fungi that cause root rot and damping-off in various agricultural crops and ornamental plants. The fungicide protects roots in the early stages of growth and is characterized by its ability to cross-link with the plant to resist infection from within. It also helps improve root strength and promotes healthy plant growth, especially in conditions of high humidity. Tachigarin acts as a systemic fungicide, targeting pathogenic fungi in the soil and inhibiting their activity and spread around the roots. This reduces root rot and damping-off, while supporting the development of a strong and healthy root system.
