Used as a broad-spectrum fungicide in agriculture, particularly effective against rusts, powdery mildews, and leaf spots in cereals such as wheat and barley. It is commonly applied in foliar sprays to protect crops during growth stages vulnerable to fungal infection. Its systemic action allows it to move within plant tissues, providing both preventive and curative control. Frequently used in integrated pest management programs due to its long residual activity. Not typically used in non-agricultural settings like households or industrial systems.
