Two years ago when a fellow INGA member passed away his widow gave me a
full
box of Furbam which was labeled for Brown Rot. It is very black, has a
non
attractive odor, have sprayed with it about three times this year. My
peaches are
now ripening and the lowest amount of Brown Rot in years. Having damp
hot
weather which promotes Brown Rot. I may get a decent crop of donut
peaches. They
are good!

I have a new sprayer (air blast) and have been spraying more regularly
this
year. Whether it was better attention to spraying or the Furban is
unknown.
