Copper Hydroxide 77% WP

Copper Hydroxide 77% WP is a broad-spectrum, contact fungicide and bactericide that effectively controls a wide range of fungal and bacterial diseases in fruits, vegetables, and field crops. It releases copper ions (Cu²⁺) that disrupt enzyme systems in pathogens, preventing infection and disease spread. Its fine particle size ensures better coverage and adhesion to plant surfaces, providing long-lasting protection against diseases like late blight, early blight, downy mildew, bacterial spot, and anthracnose.

Description

Mode of Action

Copper ions (Cu²⁺) interfere with fungal and bacterial enzyme activity, leading to protein denaturation and cell membrane disruption.
Forms a protective barrier on plant surfaces, preventing pathogen entry and infection.

Benefits

Effective against fungal and bacterial diseases in multiple crops.
Contact action ensures rapid disease suppression.
Fine particle formulation enhances coverage and rainfastness.
Low resistance risk due to multi-site activity.
Safe for integrated disease management programs when used as recommended.
