Product description
Vacomil Plus 50% WP, fungicide, copper, preventive, and therapeutic, 1 kg. Vacomil Plus 50% WP is a dual-effect fungicide, combining systemic and protective copper effects, used to assist in controlling several important fungal diseases such as powdery mildew, downy mildew, and fungal spots in vegetables, grapes, ornamental plants, and some other crops according to label instructions. The product contains two active substances: Metalaxyl at 15%, a systemic substance that helps in translocating within plant tissues, and Copper Oxychloride at 35%, a protective copper substance that helps protect the plant surface from infection.

Description of Vacomil Plus 50% WP
Vacomil Plus 50% WP is designed to be a suitable fungicide for farmers who need a product that combines preventive protection and early therapeutic intervention. Some diseases like powdery mildew and late blight can spread quickly under high humidity, poor ventilation, and dense green growth, so continuous monitoring and a well-planned spraying program are necessary.
The product comes as a wettable powder (WP), mixed with water and sprayed on the plant according to recommended doses. It can also be used in some seed treatment cases before planting according to label recommendations, to reduce the risks of some fungal pathogens at the beginning of plant growth.

Why is the combination of Metalaxyl and Copper important?
Fungal diseases like powdery mildew and downy mildew often require a control program combining prevention and early intervention. Metalaxyl provides systemic action within the plant, while Copper Oxychloride acts as a protective surface layer. The formulation is beneficial when used at the correct timing, especially before disease spread or at early stages.
However, the effectiveness depends on key factors: correct diagnosis, timely spraying, good coverage, adherence to doses, and not waiting until the disease becomes difficult to control.
