PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Product Profile
Ethaboxam is a fungicide used mainly for folial and soil treatment. It is highly effective on a range of diseases such as downy mildew, late blight and pythium disease in several crops including grapes, vegetables, potatoes, and corn as well as other row crops. Since only a few fungicides are currently available to control Pythium effectively, it is expected that ethaboxam will be one of the highly preferred seed treatment products capable of meeting growers’ needs for higher crop productivity.

Applications
Ethaboxam has its biological specialty in its mode of actions. Ethaboxam has preventive activity that protects crops prior to infection by pathogen. It is an outstanding fungicide that controls downy mildew and late blight of vegetables and fruits. Its application is 100~250 g/ha for most target crops and pathogens. It also has curative activity that eliminates pathogens that already inhabit inside plants. Its systemic activity also allows curing diseases on stems and leaves by drenching in soils by moving upward plants during transpiration. An excellent toxicology profile makes it safe around people, livestock and the environment. Distinctively from other fungicides, Ethaboxam has two biochemical action sites and reduces possibility of developing pathogens resistant to ethaboxam. Further, ethaboxam can be used to effectively control the diseases caused by phenyamide-resistant pathogens. This unique feature is the key sales point of ethaboxam in the global market.
Market Scenario
The global total market size of fungicides in 2000 was approximately 6.5 billion US dollars and that of fungicides to control diseases on fruits and vegetables was 2.7 billion US dollars (46%). Approximately one billion US dollars was used to control the diseases caused by Oomycetes. The compound was developed by LGLS and has been on the market in various countries since 2005, mainly for foliar and soil treatment. Because of its highly systemic and preventive activities, ethaboxam exhibits excellent fungicidal performance also for seed treatment, which helps reduce both the application frequency and the application rate of crop protection products and ultimately promote labour saving in agricultural production.
