| 1 Organic treatments arranged alphabetically by biological or natural product name. |
| 2 FRAC groups are also provided as BM- or P-number codes. In general, sulfur compounds are fungicidal and may affect applications of fungal biocontrols (e.g., Botector); whereas copper may affect applications of bacterial biocontrols (e.g., Actinovate, Double Nickel 55, and Serenade). Rotations must consider these factors. |
