Adios Flea Beetles
Early-seeded canola can pay yield dividends at the end of the season, but it also puts emerging plants at risk for flea beetle damage.
This is because adult flea beetles overwinter in field margins and grassy areas, then become active during the first extended period of warm weather in the spring — often intersecting with the emergence of early-seeded canola.
These aggressive feeders can devastate a crop in a short period, with some experts estimating leaf area loss advancing from 25 to 50 per cent in a matter of one day. At that rate, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
SOMBRERO® 600 FS contains a proven, highly effective seed treatment insecticide that gives you broad-spectrum control of above and below ground pests. Once treated seed is planted, the active ingredient in SOMBRERO® 600 FS is released and forms a protective barrier around the seed.
As the plant grows, systemic action transports the active ingredient Imidacloprid throughout the developing stem and leaves, ensuring lasting above ground insect control and giving the crop the defense to grow to its potential.
SOMBRERO® 600 FS is not tied to any bundling programs and can be partnered with a long list of fungicide seed treatments, including Allegiance®, Apron Maxx® RTA®, EverGol® Energy, Insure® Cereal FX4, Insure® Pulse, Rancona® Trio, Raxil® MD, Raxil® Pro, Trilex® EverGol®, Vibrance® Quattro, Vibrance® Maxx RFC.
