Fungicide Pesticide Trifloxystrobin 50% WG/WDGTrifloxystrobin is a widely used fungicide that has EU approval for use. It has a low aqueous solubility, a low volatility and, based on its chemical properties, would not normally be expected to leach to groundwater. It would not be expected to be persistent in soil or water systems. It has a low mammalian oral toxicity but there is some evidence that it may cause negative reproduction or fertility effects. It is highly toxic to bird, fish and aquatic invertebrates, but less toxic to honeybees and earthworms.
