A copper-based fungicide that controls fungal as well as bacterial diseases through contact action.
CUPRAVIS contains copper oxychloride 50% WP, a comprehensive fungicide that works against fungal as well as bacterial diseases through contact action. Its fine powder sticks to the leaves and hampers the growth of fungus, and because it dissolves slowly it releases copper ions gradually and keeps diseases under control for a long time.
CUPRAVIS acts as a contact protectant. Copper bonds strongly to amino acids and carboxyl groups in the target organism and inactivates the sulfhydryl groups of its enzymes. Spores actively accumulate copper, which stops them from germinating.
