Fungicide Pesticide & Repellent Copper Oxychloride 35% + Metalaxyl 15% WP
Copper Oxychloride
A widely used copper fungicide that is approved for use in many countries including at EU level. It has a low aqueous solubility and a low volatility. As a heavy metal, copper itself will not degrade in the environment. It is moderately toxic to mammals and most biodiversity.
Description: A protectant copper fungicide and bactericide used as a foliar spray
Example pests controlled: Leaf spot; Downy mildew
Example applications: Ornamentals; Beet crops; Olives; Grapes; Tomatoes
Chemical structure:
General status:
Metalaxyl
Description: A fungicide used to control diseases caused by air- and soil-bornePeronosporales in many different crops
Example pests controlled: Downy mildew; Foliar and tuber blight; Damping-off
Example applications: Many agricultural crops including tobacco, potaoes, soybean, onions, citrus, cucubits, tomatoes, cotton; Ornamentals; Turf
