Widely used as a broad-spectrum fungicide, this chemical is primarily applied in agriculture to protect crops such as potatoes, tomatoes, peanuts, and fruits from fungal diseases like blight, leaf spot, and mildew. It is effective in both pre- and post-infection scenarios when applied to foliage. Commonly used in commercial farming, it helps maintain crop yield and quality by preventing fungal development under humid or wet conditions. It is also applied in non-agricultural settings, including turf management on golf courses and lawns, where it controls mold and fungus in grass. Due to its persistence and effectiveness, it is often included in integrated pest management programs, typically rotated with other fungicides to reduce resistance development.
