Used as a fungicide in agricultural applications, particularly for controlling fungal diseases in fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. It is effective against a broad spectrum of fungi, including those causing powdery mildew, leaf spots, and blights. The compound works by inhibiting fungal cell division and disrupting metabolic processes, making it a preventive and curative treatment. Commonly applied as a foliar spray, it adheres well to plant surfaces and offers residual protection under various environmental conditions. It is favored in integrated pest management programs due to its relatively low toxicity to non-target organisms when used as directed.
