Barmac Wettable Sulphur is a versatile fungicide used to control a variety of diseases in a wide range of crops, including fruit trees, vegetables, ornamentals, and turfgrass. It is a contact fungicide, meaning it must come into direct contact with the fungi in order to be effective.

Mode of Action

Sulphur works by disrupting the cell walls and mitochondria of fungi, preventing them from growing and reproducing. It also has a sulfur sublimation effect, which releases sulfur into the air and creates a protective layer around the plant that helps to prevent fungal spores from germinating.
