Epoxiconazole is a fungicide active ingredient from the class of azoles developed to protect crops. In particular, the substance inhibits the metabolism of fungi cells infesting useful plants, and thereby prevents the growth of the mycelia (fungal cells). Epoxiconazole also limits the production of conidia (mitospores). Epoxiconazole was introduced to the market by BASF SE in 1993 and can be found in many products and product mixtures targeting a large number of pathogens in various crops. Crops are, for example, cereals (mainly wheat, barley, rye and triticale), soybeans, banana, rice, coffee, turnips, and red as well as sugar beets.

World food supply is projected to face additional stress in the future; within the next decade cereal demands in Europe alone are expected to increase by 21%, while production is projected to increase by only 7%.〔Von Witzke, Noleppa & Schwarz: ''Global agricultural market trends and their impacts on European Union agriculture.'' In: ''Humboldt Universität zu Berlin, Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaften an der Landwirtschaftlich-Gärtnerischen Fakultät, Working Paper.'' Nr. 48, 2008.〕 At the same time, two main cereal diseases, leaf blotch (Septoria tritici) and rust (Puccinia triticina), are responsible for up to 30% yield losses.〔Zhang XY, Loyce C, Meynard JM, Savary S: ''Characterization of multiple disease systems and cultivar susceptibilities for the analysis of yield losses in winter wheat.'' In: ''Crop Protection.'' Nr. 25, 2006, pg. 1013-1023.〕 Failure to adequately control these diseases would affect both food availability and food quality. Although not used commercially for insect control, epoxiconazole exhibits a strong anti-feeding effect on the keratin-digesting common clothes moth larvae ''Tineola bisselliella''.〔Sunderland, M. R.; Cruickshank, R. H.; Leighs, S. J. (2014). “The efficacy of antifungal azole and antiprotozoal compounds in protection of wool from keratin-digesting insect larvae”.
