Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the fungicide mancozeb, detailing its history; areas of disease management; mode of action and spectrum of activity; usage and effectiveness; and limitations and critical issues as of 2010. States that, "introduced in 1962, [mancozeb] still plays a significant role in the world fungicide market. Mancozeb possesses a number of key attributes that have contributed toward its development into a globally important tool in modern chemical-based plant disease management." Presents tables listing "key representative uses of mancozeb" and "effectiveness (% [percent]) mancozeb applied alone for the control of key pathogens on different crops." Reports that "market analysis data show that approximately $740 million worth of mancozeb-containing products were sold in 2007." Mentions that a critical environmental issue pertaining to mancozeb involves application rates: "mancozeb and other multi-site protectant fungicides have been used in a classic prophylactic approach to disease control...However, it does not fit well with the basic tenets of Integrated Pest Management (IPM), where pesticides inputs should not be used unless absolutely necessary." |
