Algae are a diverse group of simple, plantlike organisms. The algae in freshwater do not generally present problems. Indeed, algae are the most important photosynthesizing organisms on Earth. They capture more of the sun's energy and produce more oxygen than all plants combined. However, floating algal masses can smother rice crops and prevent young plants from emerging. Water flow can be severely impeded, they may block pipes, siphon tubes, irrigation channels and pumps. Coptrol algaecide is easy to apply. Once diluted it can be applied from aircraft, from boats or pontoons, from the banks of smaller storages or even dripped directly into flowing water in high volume treatments such as flood irrigation. Since Coptrol is a non-corrosive liquid it is extremely adaptable in application. Unlike bluestone it can be applied as a Preventive treatment prior to or immediately after sowing. |

It can:
- Piggyback on herbicide and insecticides flown on to aerially sown and drill sown crops
- Be mixed with water and dripped in to water flowing into bays
- Be poured from banks directly into flooded bays.
Coptrol can also be used in these ways as a remedial treatment for green and brown slime (which is usually blue green algae discoloured by degenerating plant material or suspended soil particles.)
