KingAgroot’s New Fungicide Flupropamid Granted Provisional ISO Common Name

KingAgroot’s newly-developed fungicide Flupropamid has provisionally obtained its ISO common name. Presumed to feature a novel mode of action, it shows no cross-resistance with existing fungicides. As one of the most active agents against powdery mildew, its field application rate can be as low as 15-50 g/ha, making it a highly-efficient new tool for powdery mildew resistance management.

Chemical structure

Flupropamid delivers excellent bidirectional acropetal-basipetal systemic translocation and penetration. It provides both protective and curative effects with over-one-month persistent efficacy and favorable crop safety. It controls powdery mildew on cucumber, melon, strawberry, grape, apple, wheat, soybean and other crops, offering growers an innovative resistance-management solution.
