Kasugamycin is a low-toxic agricultural antibiotic with good systemicity. It has functions of both prevention and treatment, which can treat plants with a remarkable effect. The action mechanism of the product lies in its esterase system, which can disturb the amino acid metabolism of the pathogen to destroy the biosynthesis of protein. This inhibits mycelial growth and gives rise to cell granulation to cause pathogenic bacteria to lose the capability of reproduction and ingression, thus putting down pathogens to protect crops. It has been over 30 years now since the promotion and application of the product.
