Abstract
The invention relates to a Bordeaux mixture in which virtually all of the copper is in the form of brochantite and which, in dry form, contains not more than 20% by weight of bassanite. The absence of cupric complexes other than brochantite and a small amount of bassanite in the dry product makes it possible to avoid the drawbacks of standard Bordeaux mixtures.
