Metconazole

Type: Fungicide

Mode of Action: Inhibiting the production of ergosterol

Common Product Names: Quash 

What is it?

Metconazole is a systemic fungicide used extensively in agriculture to protect crops from a wide range of fungal diseases. It is known for its broad-spectrum activity and is effective against many common fungal pathogens that affect crops like cereals, fruits, and vegetables. Metconazole is valued for its ability to both prevent and cure fungal infections, making it a versatile tool in integrated pest management (IPM) strategies.

How does it work?

Upon application, metconazole is absorbed by the plant and translocated to various parts where it targets the fungal cells. By inhibiting the production of ergosterol, it disrupts the formation of the fungal cell membrane, leading to cell death and halting the spread of the infection. This mode of action makes metconazole effective both as a preventative measure and as a curative solution for existing fungal infections.

Benefits

  • Systemic Action: Absorbed and translocated throughout the plant, providing comprehensive protection.
  • Preventative and Curative: Can be used to prevent fungal infections as well as to treat existing ones.
  • Long-Lasting Protection: Provides residual activity, offering prolonged protection after application.
