Fungicide
A fungicide is a type of pesticide used to kill or inhibit the growth of fungi and their spores. These substances can be chemical or biological in nature and are typically used to prevent the spread of fungal diseases in plants and crops. Fungicides are often used to control mildews, rusts, and other fungi that can cause significant damage to plants and crops. Fungicides can be applied as a liquid, aerosol, or dust and are available in both organic and inorganic forms. Fungicides are typically applied before the onset of fungal diseases and can be used to both prevent and cure existing fungal infections. Fungicides work by either inhibiting the growth of the fungus or by killing the fungus outright.
