Captan Gold 4L is a suspension concentrate (SC) fungicide used for plant disease control. Its active ingredient is Captan at a concentration of 38.75% by weight. This product is designed to control various fungal diseases in a wide range of crops, including apples, apricots, blueberries, caneberries (blackberries, raspberries, and dewberries), and nut crops. It can be applied via ground application or aerial application. For effective management, users should follow specific rate instructions based on the target disease and crop type, such as applying 2-4 quarts per acre for scab in apples. The label emphasizes resistance management, suggesting the use of different modes of action to prevent fungal resistance. Handling requires specific Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including long-sleeved shirts, long pants, shoes plus socks, protective eyewear, and chemical-resistant gloves.
