How POSITIVE Works
POSITIVE contains pyraclostrobin, a fungicide belonging to the strobilurin or QoI group.
Pyraclostrobin interferes with fungal energy production, affecting the ability of susceptible fungal pathogens to grow and develop.
For best disease-management results, applications should be properly timed and used as part of a resistance-management program.
