According to a recent report by Market Research Future, the Copper Oxychloride Market produces a stable blue-green fungicide applied as wettable powders or suspensions to control fungal blights, downy mildew, and leaf spots in vineyards, tomatoes, and potatoes. Its multi-site mode of action prevents resistance development in pathogens like Phytophthora and Alternaria species. Fixed copper formulations release ions gradually, maintaining protective residues through rainfast periods up to 14 days.
Formulation Types
50% WP powders disperse evenly in spray tanks. 40% SC suspensions reduce drift during application. Granular grades suit soil drench treatments.
Target Crops
Citrus groves protect against melanose. Coffee plantations combat rust infections. Rice paddies prevent sheath blight.
Application Methods
Boom sprayers deliver 200-400 liters/hectare. Aerial applications cover remote orchards efficiently.
Efficacy Standards
Controls 85-95% disease incidence at 2-3 kg/ha rates. Residual activity persists 21 days post-application.
Safety Profiles
Low dermal toxicity classifies as WHO Class III. Seven-day pre-harvest intervals ensure residue compliance.
