Usage: |
Carbendazim is a systemic benzimidazole fungicide that plays a very important role in plant disease control. Carbendazim is used to control a broad range of diseases on arable crops (cereals, oilseed rape), fruits, vegetables and ornamentals. It is also used in post-harvest food storage, and as a seed pre-planting treatment. Carbendazim works by inhibiting the development of fungi probably by interfering with spindle formation at mitosis (cell division). |
