SUMMARY

Orysastrobin is a rice fungicide without EU regulatory approval for use. It has a moderate aqueous solubility, is volatile and, based on its chemical properties, is mobile and can be expected to leach to groundwater. It is generally moderately persistent in soil systems but will not usually persist in aquatic systems under certain conditions. It is not generally susceptible to hydrolysis. It has a moderate mammalian toxicity and has a high potential to bioaccumulate. It is moderately toxic to most aquatic species, birds and earthworms but relatively non-toxic to honey bees.
