Voliam Flexi insecticide, from Syngenta Crop Protection, has been registered in California by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (CDPR), according to the manufacturer. Voliam Flexi is approved for use on potatoes, pome fruit, stone fruit and grapes. State registrations or specific crop and/or pest uses may still be pending in certain states. Please check with your state regulatory agency to determine registration status.
Voliam Flexi features two modes of action to protect crops from chewing and sucking insects as well as lepidopteran pests. It contains chlorantraniliprole (CTPR), a new mode of action from the diamide family of insecticides and thiamethoxam, a member of the neonicotinoid class of chemistry. These two active ingredients are combined in an enhanced solution that delivers a broad spectrum of control of damaging insect pests in potatoes, pome fruit, stone fruit and grapes.
Voliam Flexi is a valuable resistance management tool and is highly compatible with Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. It will help growers combat a number of insect pests so they can achieve the maximum yield potential from the crop.
