Atul Ltd has unveiled three proprietary crop protection products—Mylonis, Salix Gold and Tikadis—aimed at improving productivity and advancing more sustainable farming practices for Indian agriculture.
The launch spans a targeted portfolio designed to tackle some of the most persistent challenges in Indian fields: a seed treatment solution for oilseeds and soybean, an advanced fungicide for rice, and a high-purity herbicide formulation for rice cultivation.
Together, the products are positioned to close critical gaps in disease management, pest control and weed suppression—factors that directly influence crop yield and farmer profitability.
“Mylonis, a patented fungicide combining Azoxystrobin, Isoprothiolane and Mancozeb, is to tackle the most challenging diseases in rice – sheath blight, blast (including multiple strains), and grain discoloration.
"Beyond disease suppression, Mylonis strengthens plant health, enhances grain quality and supports resistance management strategies, making it an invaluable choice for rice farmers throughout India," the company says.
“Salix Gold reflects the advanced manufacturing capability of Atul in high-purity technical grade production.
"This 2,4-D sodium salt–based water-dispersible granules formulation provides post-emergence weed control, effectively targeting broadleaf weeds and sedges in rice production systems across India," the chemicals major says.
“Tikadis, a patented seed treatment formulation, combines Azoxystrobin, Carbendazim and Thiamethoxam to deliver day-one defence against soil-borne pests and pathogens in groundnut and soybean.
"Field trials demonstrate that Tikadis promotes robust seed germination, strengthens root nodule development for improved plant vigour and ensures uniform pod development," the company adds.
