AgroBest Phozguard 620 Systemic Fungicide – 5L

AgroBest Phozguard 620 Systemic Fungicide – 5L is the best foliar and root disease protection for the prevention and control of Downy Mildew and other Phytophthora diseases.

Key Features

  • Provides effective control on a wide range of crops
  • Formulated from a non-toxic potassium phosphite base.
  • All diseased parts of the plant are effectively controlled using a systemic action providing complete translocation through their vascular system.
  • Compatibility with a wide range of other agricultural chemicals, reducing the number of spray applications needed.

Target Disease

Crop Type / Examples Diseases Controlled

Fruits (e.g. citrus, grapes, avocados) Root rot, downy mildew, collar rot, Phytophthora
Ornamentals & Nursery Plants Foliar blights, root diseases, Pythium, Phytophthora

How to Use

  1. Apply at the right time: Use as a preventative spray before disease appears, or at the first sign of infection.

  2. Adjust the rate as the canopy grows: Start with 1.9 L/ha for small canopies early in the season, increasing to 2.6–3.9 L/ha for larger canopies. Always check the label for your specific crop.

  3. Ensure thorough coverage: Spray all plant surfaces, including the undersides of leaves, for full protection.

  4. Mix properly: Follow the label’s dilution rates to avoid over-application and maximise results.

  5. Choose ideal conditions: Spray in cool, calm weather for best absorption and minimal evaporation.

  6. Tank mix if needed: Phozguard 620 is compatible with many other fungicides like mancozeb, so you can broaden your disease control in one go.

  7. Monitor regularly: Keep an eye on your plants for disease symptoms and reapply as needed.

Pro Tip: For the best long-term results, use Phozguard 620 as part of an integrated disease management plan. Combine it with good soil health, proper irrigation, and crop rotation for healthier, more resilient plants.

Is Phozguard 620 effective against Seiridium Canker in cypress pines? Stephen asked on 26 March 2025

Hey Stephen,
AgroBest Phozguard 620, a systemic fungicide with active ingredients of phosphorous acid (mono- and di-potassium phosphonates), is effective against a range of fungal diseases, including those caused by Phytophthora and Downy Mildew. While it is not specifically marketed for Seiridium canker in cypress pines, fungicides containing phosphorous acid have shown good results in managing cypress canker when applied early.

Cypress canker, caused by Seiridium species, interferes with the sap-conducting system of trees and leads to branch dieback and eventual tree death. Treatments using phosphorous acid-based fungicides, either as foliar sprays, injections, or soil drenches, have been reported to suppress the disease and improve tree health. Therefore, Phozguard 620 could potentially be effective against Seiridium canker when applied correctly. However, consulting a local arborist or horticulturist for tailored advice is recommended.

Is this safe to use on orchids? Colin asked on 10 February 2025

Hey Colin,
AgroBest Phozguard 620 Systemic Fungicide is not specifically labeled for use on orchids. It is primarily used for controlling diseases like Downy Mildew and Phytophthora in crops such as citrus, grapes, and cucurbits. While systemic fungicides can be effective for treating fungal infections in plants, using a product not specifically labeled for orchids may pose risks to the plant.

Carl answered on 11 February 2025 store manager

This should be okay to use on most orchids (excluding those requiring an alkaline pH, such as Cym. canaliculatum) as it is the same active ingredient as Rid-a-Rot, just a higher concentration (Rid-a-Rot is 200g/L). So where you'd use 5 to 10ml of Rid-a-Rot per litre of water, you'd use 1.6 to 3.2mL of Phozguard 620.

While not specifically marketed for frangipani rust, the systemic properties of AgroBest Phozguard 620 and its ability to enhance the plant's immune response make it a potentially useful option for treating this disease. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and consider consulting with a local horticulturist for tailored advice​

Hi Dave will Phozguard treat Antracnose in Plane Tress Hayley Crossing asked on 18 June 2024

Hey Hayley,
AgroBest Phozguard 620 Systemic Fungicide is a liquid fungicide designed for the prevention and control of various fungal diseases, including Downy Mildew and Phytophthora. It works systemically by being absorbed into the plant's vascular system, providing effective disease control by activating the plant's immune response and suppressing spore formation.

However, the available information does not explicitly state that Phozguard 620 is effective against anthracnose, particularly for plane trees (Platanus spp.), which are commonly affected by the fungus Apiognomonia veneta. Anthracnose in plane trees is typically managed through cultural practices like improving air circulation and sunlight penetration, removing and disposing of infected leaves, and ensuring proper tree health through adequate watering and fertilization.

For chemical control, fungicides specifically labeled for anthracnose, such as those containing thiophanate-methyl, chlorothalonil, or mancozeb, are recommended. Phozguard 620 might help as part of an integrated disease management approach, but it is essential to consult specific product guidelines or a local extension service for confirmation and tailored advice.

  1. Safe and moderately effective at controlling Phytophthora in Cymbidium orchids. I have previously used Rid-a-Rot and never had any ill effects from applying this at the prescribed rate (although I rarely apply it to Cym. canaliculatum as that species requires an alkaline environment and this product is acidic). It does not completely stop Phytophthora if it has gotten into a plant, but since resuming regular applications this year the problem has been significantly reduced with fewer new cases. Worth having on hand if you have rot issues.

  4. I bought the phosguard 600 for use with my private orchid collection. The directions for use were a little unclear for me as to mixing ratios for folia spraying and possibly drenching the pots with a diluted solution. If you could clarify this I would be grateful. Thanks Richard
