Commonly applied in rice, wheat, and vegetables to control sheath blight, damping-off, and other fungal diseases. Shows strong systemic activity, allowing it to be absorbed by plant tissues and provide long-lasting protection. Often used as a seed treatment to protect crops during early growth stages. Exhibits low toxicity to non-target organisms and is considered suitable for integrated pest management programs.
