What Type of Pesticide Does Procymidone Belong To? A Detailed Explanation of Its Classification
Procymidone is a pesticide that can be used on many fruit trees, vegetables, and flowers, but many people do not know which category of pesticide procymidone belongs to, so let's find out together!
1. What type of pesticide does procymidone belong to?
Procymidone belongs to the new type of fungicides among pesticides, and is a low-toxicity fungicide. Besides fungicides, the types of pesticides also include insecticides, acaricides, herbicides, plant growth regulators, and so on.
The formulations of procymidone include 50% wettable powder, 30% granular fumigant, 25% flowable powder, 25% colloidal suspension, 10% and 15% smoke agent, 20% suspension concentrate, etc.
2. The effects of procymidone
1. Tianda procymidone has a prominent protective effect on crops and a long lasting effect, and can effectively stop the development of lesions. Whether used protectively before the onset of disease or used in the early stage of disease, satisfactory results can be achieved.
2. As a systemic fungicide, it has a special effect on fungi of the genera Botrytis and Sclerotinia, can control gray mold and sclerotinia rot in fruit trees and vegetable crops, and is also effective against fungi that have developed resistance to benzimidazoles. After use, the protective effect is good and the lasting effect is long, and it can stop the development and spread of lesions. Used before the onset of disease or in the early stage of disease in crops, satisfactory results can be achieved.
3. Scope of application: suitable for the control of sclerotinia rot, gray mold, scab, brown rot, and large spot disease in fruit trees, vegetables, flowers, etc.
3. Precautions for the use of procymidone
1. For disease control, use the pesticide as early as possible, preferably before the onset of disease, and at the latest in the early stage of disease.
2. This pesticide is prone to developing resistance, so it must not be used continuously; at the same time, it should be sprayed alternately with other pesticides. The pesticide should be prepared and used immediately, and should not be left standing for a long time.
