A new copper product for Psa-V protection has become available for conventional growers. AG Copp 75 (cuprous oxide) has a limited label claim and has been added to the Conventional Zespri Crop Protection Standard and the KVH Recommended Product List.

Manufacturers recommend applying AG Copp 75 on its own post-flowering to reduce the risk of fruit marking or leaf damage.

Summer rates for the budbreak to harvest period are outlined in KVH Recommended Product List. Use conditions and rates year-round are included in the KVH Seasonal Management Guide.
