Mode of Action:
-Metiram acts as a protectant fungicide, forming a protective film on the plant
surface to prevent fungal spore germination and penetration.
-Pyraclostrobin is a strobilurin fungicide that inhibits mitochondrial respiration
in fungi, disrupting their energy production and growth.
-The combination provides both preventive and curative effects.
Benefits:
-Broad-spectrum activity against multiple fungal diseases.
-Good rainfastness, providing long-lasting protection.
-Compatible with many other Pesticide for tank-mixing.
-Low phytotoxicity to most crops.
Precautions:
-PPE: Wear chemical-resistant gloves, a mask, and goggles.
-Do not apply in windy conditions (wind speed > 10 km/h).
-Follow the recommended dosage and application frequency to avoid resistance
development.
-Storage: Store in a cool, dry place at 0°C-30°C.
Environmental Hazards:
-Toxic to aquatic organisms, avoid contamination of water bodies.
-Low toxicity to birds and mammals.
-Biodegradable in soil with a moderate half-life.
