How it works
Carbendazim stops fungal cells dividing normally, which disrupts their growth.
- Plant uptake: The active ingredient can enter through green plant tissue and roots and move upward in the plant.
- Effect on fungi: It interferes with a protein fungi need for normal cell division.
- Match the disease: Use the powdery-mildew directions for grapes or mango. Movement inside the plant does not make it suitable for every disease.
Changing the brand name may not change how a pesticide works. Avoid repeated use of the same action group; follow the crop label and a suitable local resistance-management plan.
