Chloronil Pro is a broad-spectrum fungicide that is used to control a variety of diseases in a wide range of crops, including turfgrasses, ornamentals, fruits, and vegetables. It is a systemic fungicide, meaning it is absorbed by the plant and translocated throughout the plant. Chloronil Pro works by inhibiting the enzyme ergosterol biosynthesis, which is essential for fungal growth and reproduction.

Mode of Action

Chloronil Pro works by inhibiting the enzyme ergosterol biosynthesis, which is essential for fungal growth and reproduction. This enzyme is responsible for the production of ergosterol, a component of the fungal cell membrane. When the enzyme is inhibited, the fungal cell membrane becomes more permeable, leading to cell death.

Benefits of Chloronil Pro

  • Broad-spectrum activity against a wide range of diseases, including powdery mildew, downy mildew, rusts, and leaf spots
  • Effective against both early and late season diseases
  • Provides long-lasting protection
  • Systemic activity for protection from within the plant
  • Safe for most crops and the environment
  • Easy to use as a foliar spray

Application Rates and Methods

The recommended application rate of Chloronil Pro varies depending on the crop, the disease being treated, and environmental conditions. For foliar applications, it is typically applied at 0.5 to 1.0 pound per acre. For seed treatment, it is typically applied at 4 to 8 ounces per 100 pounds of seed. It is usually applied as a spray, but it can also be applied as a seed treatment.
