About Carbendazim

Carbendazim (methyl benzimidazol-2-ylcarbamate) is a systemic benzimidazole fungicide used to control a broad range of diseases on pulses and macadamias and as a timber treatment fungicide. Prior the review being finalised, it was also used on a wide range of horticultural crops, in post-harvest food storage, as a pre-planting ginger and sugar cane treatment.
Carbendazim is a widely used broad-spectrum benzimidazole fungicide. A 4.7% solution of carbendazim hydrochloride is sold as Eertavas, an effective treatment for Dutch elm disease.
