Further Limitations of Synthetic Fungicide Use and Expansion of Organic Agriculture in Europe Will Increase the Environmental and Health Risks of Chemical Crop Protection Caused by Copper‐Containing Fungicides

Quentin C. Burandt,

Abstract: Copper containing fungicides are used in agriculture since 1885. The divalent copper ion is a non‐biodegradable multi‐site inhibitor, which has a strictly protective, non‐systemic effect on plants. Copper‐containing plant protection products currently approved in Germany contain copper oxychloride, copper hydroxide and tribasic copper sulphate. Copper is primarily used to control oomycete pathogens in grapevine, hop, potato and fungal diseases in fruit production. In the environment, copper is highly persisten… Show more

“…involves synthetic fungicides, including carbendazim, chlorothalonil, mancozeb, among others (Torres-Rodriguez et al 2022b;Ismaila et al 2023). However, the persistent application of such synthetic fungicides has detrimental effects on human health and the environment because of the accumulation of chemical residues and the increase in pathogen resistance (Burandt et al 2024).…”
