Application of Basic Copper Sulfate in Vegetable Production

(1) Physical and chemical properties

 

Appearance is light blue powder, melting point>360℃. The relative density is 3.89 (20°C), and the solubility in water is 1.06 mg/L (20°C). In the liquid medicine, tiny blue suspended particles will be formed, which are soluble in dilute acids. It can be stored stably for 3 years at room temperature, and can be mixed with water in any proportion to form a relatively stable suspension.

 

(2) Product features

 

1. It is a mineral source, broad-spectrum, inorganic copper, protective, low-toxic fungicide, effective against fungal and bacterial diseases, and is an ideal replacement product for traditional Bordeaux mixture.

 

2. The suspending agent is sticky, and can firmly adhere to the plant surface to form a protective film after spraying. Its active ingredients gradually release free copper ions under the action of water and air. Copper ions combine with multiple genes in the protein of the pathogen to denature the protein, inhibit the germination of the spores and the development of the mycelium, and cause the death of the bacteria.

 

3. Good dispersion, resistant to rain erosion.

 

 

4. Compared with the Bordeaux mixture prepared by ourselves, the basic copper sulfate solution has fine particles, is convenient to use, and has good safety. After spraying, there is no obvious drug spot pollution on the plant surface, but the effective period is shorter.

 

 

5. Low toxicity, toxic to silkworms.

 

 

(3) Objects of prevention and control

 

Basic copper sulfate has a wide range of disease prevention. It is mainly used in vegetable production to prevent and control potato late blight, tomato gray mold, tomato early blight, tomato late blight, celery spot, celery spotted blight, strawberry gray mold, strawberry Leaf spot, strawberry verticillium wilt, strawberry bud blight, strawberry powdery mildew, onion downy mildew, onion purple spot, onion white tip, bean anthracnose, bean bacterial blight, cucumber bacterial angular spot , Cucumber blight, cucumber downy mildew, cucumber anthracnose, cabbage soft rot, lettuce downy mildew, etc.

(5) First aid for poisoning

 

Use this medicine strictly in accordance with pesticide safety regulations, and avoid direct contact of liquid or powder with the body. If the liquid medicine accidentally splashes into the eyes, rinse it off with clean water immediately and take this label to the hospital for medical treatment; if swallowed by mistake, send it to the hospital for treatment immediately. In case of oral poisoning, induce vomiting and gastric lavage immediately. The antidote is edetate disodium calcium, and it is combined with symptomatic treatment.

 

(6) Precautions

 

1. This medicine is a protective fungicide and should be used before and at the beginning of the onset to prevent the invasion or spread of pathogenic bacteria.

 

2. The key to the control effect of this chemical is to apply the drug at the right time and spray it evenly, prevent it early, and prevent it regularly. It is required to stir the drug solution evenly before spraying. Use instead of Bordeaux mixture.

 

3. Do not spray on cloudy and rainy days or when there is dew in the morning and evening, and increase the spraying ratio appropriately when using medicine on even cloudy days.

 

4. When used under high temperature conditions, the concentration should be appropriately reduced. The use of this drug during the flowering period of crops is likely to cause phytotoxicity, so it is not suitable for use.

 

5. Use this agent with caution on copper-sensitive crops to avoid phytotoxicity.

 

6. Can not be mixed with lime sulfur mixture.

 

7. Precipitation may occur when the suspension is stored for a long time, which is a normal phenomenon, and it will not affect the efficacy of the medicine after being shaken well. Long-term storage will cause stratification, but it will not affect the efficacy.

 

8. Silkworms and mulberry trees are sensitive to this agent, so it is prohibited near silkworm rooms and mulberry gardens.

 

9. Pay attention to avoid the agent from corroding the dispensing container and spraying equipment, and do a good job of cleaning.
