Ai Miao EC, currently one of the key pesticide products promoted by the Ministry of Agriculture, is a broad-spectrum fungicide developed by Syngenta. It is highly effective in controlling various rice diseases and also helps regulate plant growth while reducing damage caused by rice planthoppers to some extent. Farmers have reported improved yield and better quality after using Ai Miao, making it an excellent choice for managing rice diseases.
The active ingredients in Ai Miao EC are 15% propiconazole and 15% difenoconazole. These compounds work by inhibiting ergosterol synthesis, which is essential for the growth of fungal pathogens. This action not only prevents the development of fungi but also strongly suppresses spore formation. Propiconazole, as a systemic fungicide, offers both protective and curative effects. It is absorbed through the roots, stems, and leaves and then transported throughout the plant to control diseases caused by various fungal groups such as ascomycetes, basidiomycetes, and deuteromycetes.
Ai Miao EC has several notable benefits. First, it provides strong disease prevention, especially for sheath blight, false smut, leaf sheath rot, and other diseases that commonly occur in the middle to late stages of rice growth. Its efficacy is superior to many existing fungicides. Second, it enhances the plant’s resistance and promotes even ripening. After application, rice plants show improved leaf posture, stronger stalks, and better lodging resistance. The grains become more mature, with a golden color, making mechanical harvesting easier.
Third, it helps reduce damage from rice planthoppers. The thick and sturdy stalks improve air circulation between rows, creating an unfavorable environment for planthopper infestation. Lastly, it increases yield and profitability. Ai Miao contains growth-regulating properties that help optimize grain filling, increase solid grain numbers, enhance seed setting rates, and raise the 1000-grain weight, leading to higher overall yields.
For best results, apply Ai Miao EC early when symptoms of sheath blight, leaf spot, or leaf sheath rot appear. For controlling rice false smut and smut, apply the product 5–7 days before the panicle emergence stage, repeating every 10–14 days. The recommended dosage is 15–20 ml per acre, diluted 1,500 times for spraying. It shows over 90% control effectiveness against sheath blight and over 80% against rice smut, outperforming other fungicides.
When using Ai Miao EC, it is important to follow safety guidelines. Apply the product in the afternoon after the rice seedlings have closed up. It is not ideal for controlling rice neck blast, so it's recommended to add 7–30 g of tricyclazole wettable powder per acre for better blast control. Additionally, the manufacturer warns that Ai Miao is sensitive to certain rice varieties and should be used carefully. High concentrations may cause phytotoxicity on sensitive crops like melons, so avoid direct contact with these plants during application to prevent damage.
