Used as a fungicide in agriculture, particularly for seed treatment to protect crops like cereals, soybeans, and vegetables from soil-borne fungal diseases. It is effective against pathogens such as Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, and Pythium, helping to improve seedling emergence and early plant growth. Its systemic action allows it to be absorbed by the plant, providing internal protection during the critical early growth stages. Furametpyr is often formulated in combination with other fungicides to broaden the spectrum of control and enhance efficacy.
