Superior locally systemic action for complete leaf tissue uptake and distribution across the leaf surface  Highly translaminar for fast movement to the opposite side of the leaf for protection of both sides  Excellent control of apple scab—even post infection  Attacks the scab pathogen at two key points in its life cycle: spore germination and mycelial growth
