Widely used in agriculture as a systemic fungicide, this chemical effectively controls diseases caused by oomycete pathogens. It is commonly applied to crops such as potatoes, grapes, tobacco, and vegetables to prevent and manage downy mildew, late blight, and damping-off diseases. Due to its systemic nature, it is absorbed by plant tissues and provides both preventive and curative action. It is often used as a seed treatment to protect seedlings during early growth stages. Its effectiveness in low doses and compatibility with integrated pest management programs makes it a preferred choice in modern farming.
