Copper 2000

Reliable crop protection against fungal and bacterial threats

When you need to stop an infection spread in its tracks, Kocide 2000 is the go-to solution for any field or orchard manager. As a copper hydroxide-based contact fungicide, it acts swiftly by releasing copper ions that inhibit spore germination. In my experience, this product delivers the consistency and reliability required when the stakes are high.

Application and mixing efficiency

The formulation in water-dispersible granules is a major advantage for operators. There is no dust, no mess, and no headache with clogged nozzles or filters. The granules disperse easily, creating a stable suspension that coats the foliage thoroughly. Remember, because it is a contact fungicide, uniform coverage is essential for maximum performance.

• Dosage: Flexible application rates from 1.5 to 6 kg/ha allow for precise adjustment based on crop density and disease pressure.
• Application frequency: 3–4 treatments per season are sufficient to manage the crop's safety throughout the critical growth cycle.
• Pre-harvest interval: With a 20–30 day interval, it is easy to plan your application schedule around the harvest, ensuring product safety and quality.

Where does Kocide 2000 shine?

I use it on a wide variety of crops—from onions and tomatoes to vineyards and fruit trees like apples, pears, and peaches. It is highly effective against a broad spectrum of diseases, including anthracnose, bacterial blight, downy mildew, and peach leaf curl. Since it is classified as a toxicity class 2 product, safety precautions are mandatory, but the results in managing stubborn bacterial and fungal pathogens make it indispensable.

Kocide 2000, manufactured by DuPont de Nemours, stands for professional-grade quality. It is a tool that allows you to focus on results rather than maintenance. For any serious grower, this fungicide is a trusted asset that helps maintain crop health and yields throughout the year.
