SIVANTO prime

SIVANTO prime is a new, systemic, Group 4D insecticide, for the rapid control of Nysius, springtails and green peach aphids in establishing forage brassica and fodder beet crops.

SIVANTO prime is an easy to use, odorless formulation, with a low dose rate, and the added convenience that it can be applied by helicopter. SIVANTO prime rapidly penetrates the plant and moves systemically, both outwards and upwards, to protect new growth.

It is suitable for integration into IPM programmes having minimal effects on most beneficials when used according to label directions.

Together this makes SIVANTO prime the prime choice for early season insect control in forage crops.
