Ametoctradin (Ref: BAS 650F)
Last updated: 03/03/2024
(Also known as: LS 0115)

SUMMARY
Ametoctradin is a fungicide approved for use in many countries for the control of economically damaging fungal diseases on fruit and vegetables. It has a low aqueous solubility and a low volatility. It tends not to be persistent in soils but can be in aquatic bodies under certain conditions. Based on the substances chemical properties there is a low risk of it leaching to groundwater. It generally has a low to moderate toxicity to biodiversity. It is not highly toxic to humans and no chronic health impacts have been identified.
