6. BORDEAUX MIXTURE
6
 Mixture of copper(II) sulphate (CuSO4) and
quicklime (CaO) and Water
 Bordeaux mixture achieves its effect by
means of the copper ions (Cu2+) of the
mixture. These ions affect enzymes in the
fungal spores in such a way as to prevent
germination.

7. BORDEAUX MIXTURE
7
 Fire blight on pears and apples;
 Leaf curl and shot hole on peaches and
nectarines;
 Downy mildew and powdery mildew on
grapes;
 Peacock spot on olives;
 Walnut blight on walnut; and
 Black spot on roses.Mixture

8. BORDEAUX MIXTURE

9. BORDEAUX PASTE
9
 In the form of paste
 Used against
 Citrus gummosis
 Stem bleeding of coconut

10. BORDEAUX PASTE
10

11. CHESHUNT COMPOUND
11
 2 parts of copper sulphate and 11 parts of
ammonium carbonate. 30 gms of this
mixture dissolved in little hot water and
solution made up to 9 lits with cold water.
 Chestnut compound is recommended for
the control of „damping off‟ diseases as a
soil drench in nursery beds.

12. CHESHUNT COMPOUND
12

13. Burgundy mixture
13
It is a modification of Bordeaux mixture, is often
used for tender foliage, since it is less phytotoxic.
In this lime is substituted by sodium carbonate,
and hence, is sometimes called „soda Bordeaux‟.
It is mixture of CuSO4 (10 lb) and Na2Co3 (12.2 lb)
in 50 gallons of water. Burgundy mixture does not
produce blemishes. Neither burgundy mixture nor
other substitutes of Boredeaux mixture have been
widely accepted.

14. Burgundy mixture

15. CHAUBATTIA PASTE
15
Chaubattia paste is prepared by mixing copper
carbonate -800 g, red lead -800 g and raw
linseed oil or lanolin -1littre.This paste was
developed as a wound dressing fungicide to be
applied to pruned parts of pears, apples and
peaches for the control of diseases
