Syngenta announced the names of three foliar-applied insecticide brands for its in-season insect management portfolio in the U.S. today. Upon approval by the Environmental Protection Agency, these foliar insecticide products are anticipated to manage insect pests in cotton, vegetables, tree fruit crops and more.
"We're committed to creating solutions that meet the evolving needs of growers," said Syngenta Technical Product Lead Elijah Meck, Ph.D. "With pests becoming more difficult to control, this active ingredient will provide growers with a new option."
Upon EPA registration, foliar-applied products using PLINAZOLIN® technology will be sold under the following brand name:
Incipio™: a foliar-applied insecticide intended for use in brassica, cucurbit, leafy and fruiting vegetable crops that will provide control of a broad spectrum of pests.
Vegetables ― Diamondback moth, melonworm, pepper weevil, pickleworm, thrips, other lepidopterous pests
While the above-listed pests are proposed key targets, the proposed labels will be for a range of pests beyond those mentioned.
