With so many products on the market, there are always
options for growers to pick and choose the chemistries they
want to use during different application windows. By not using
a neonicitinoid soil treatment or soil application, growers have
the option to incorporate neonicitinoid chemistries as a foliar
treatment to defend against pests like aphids, Colorado potato
beetles and potato tuberworms.
A product that comes to mind is Endigo® ZC insecticide from
Syngenta. Endigo ZC is a broad-spectrum foliar insecticide
equipped with two highly effective modes of action – lambdacyhalothrin
and thiamethoxam – making it ideal for overlapping
pest populations and hard-to-control pests. When choosing
Endigo ZC you are ensuring control of key potato pests like
those listed above. It is strong enough to knockdown pests
quickly and robust enough to stop insect populations from
growing rapidly. It also works fast and keeps working for a
week or longer depending on pest population dynamics, plant
growth rate and environmental conditions. Not to mention,
Endigo ZC is an effective rotational partner in existing
resistance management programs and is a great choice when
managing changing pest complexes. These qualities will help
you stay a step ahead of insects this growing season, helping
you achieve optimal yield.
