Abstract
If the R-enantiomer of metalaxyl, furalaxyl or benalaxyl is used, this results in a markedly increased biodegradability of these plant fungicides in the soil and a higher activity on the plants, as compared with the data of the racemic active ingredients. Fungicidal compositions exhibiting said improved properties comprise either of these fungicides with a content of R-enantiomer of more than 70 percent by weight based on the total amount of active ingredient.
