Used as a potent fungicide in agricultural applications, particularly effective against a broad spectrum of fungal pathogens including those causing powdery mildew, rust, and leaf spot diseases in crops. It is commonly applied in the protection of cereals, fruits, and vegetables due to its systemic activity and long residual effect. Its structure allows for strong binding to fungal enzyme sites, disrupting cell membrane synthesis and leading to pathogen death. Also valued for its low environmental impact and favorable toxicological profile, making it suitable for integrated pest management programs.
