Mastercop Fungicide
Mastercop Fungicide is a high-performance fungicide and bactericide formulated with 23.99% w/v Suspension Concentrate (SC) of Copper Sulfate Pentahydrate. Designed for preventive and protective disease management, Mastercop delivers powerful multi-site action against a wide range of fungal and bacterial diseases.
Copper-based formulations have been globally recognized as essential tools in integrated disease management programs. Mastercop works by releasing copper ions (Cu++) that denature proteins and enzymes of pathogens, effectively stopping spore germination and bacterial multiplication at the surface level.
It is highly suitable for fruit crops, vegetables, plantation crops, and field crops where both fungal and bacterial infections are common.

Mastercop Fungicide Features and Benefits
Broad-Spectrum Protection:
Effectively controls fungal diseases like Downy Mildew, Leaf Spots, Anthracnose, Blights, and bacterial diseases such as Bacterial Leaf Spot and Blight.
Dual Action – Fungicide & Bactericide:
Provides protection against both fungal spores and bacterial pathogens in a single application.
Multi-Site Mode of Action:
Acts on multiple enzyme systems in pathogens, reducing the risk of resistance development.
Protective Shield Formation:
Forms a uniform protective layer on plant surfaces preventing pathogen entry.
Strong Preventive Activity:
Best applied before infection or at early disease stage for maximum protection.
Excellent Crop Safety:
When used as per recommended dose, safe for most horticultural and vegetable crops.
Essential for Integrated Pest Management (IPM):
Ideal for resistance management programs due to non-systemic multi-site action.
Mode of Action
Mastercop releases copper ions upon spraying. These ions disrupt cellular proteins and enzyme systems of fungi and bacteria. The disruption leads to:
-
Inhibition of spore germination
-
Prevention of bacterial multiplication
-
Blocking of infection establishment
Since copper acts at multiple sites, pathogens struggle to develop resistance.
