Abstract
A fungicidal composition which comprises a compound of general formula: ##STR1## or acid addition salts or metal complexes thereof, wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently represents a C.sub.1-5 alkyl group or a hydrogen atom; X represents a halogen atom, a C.sub.1-5 alkyl group or a phenyl group; n is 0, 1 or 2 and A represents a nitrogen atom or CH; and an aliphatic alcohol alkoxylate, for example an ethoxylate, with an average of 5-9 ethylene oxide units per molecule, of a C.sub.9-15 aliphatic alcohol, as adjuvant. It has been found that the presence of the alkoxylate substantially enhances the fungicidal efficacy of a compound of general formula I, in particular in foliar spray applications against fungi which are pathogenic to cereal crops.
