It is widely used as a fungicide or herbicide in agriculture usually by mixing with other chemical components to control fungus and other invasive aquatic plants.

Besides, as an analytical reagent, it is commonly seen in chemical laboratories, which can test for reducing sugars. In addition, copper sulfate is an essential material involved in many industrial processes, such as electroplating and dyeing, where it serves as a mordant.
