Twelve millimeters, the size of a naval orangeworm (NOW), could be the difference between a bountiful harvest and devastating losses. But NOW cannot dictate your pest control program. You manage your orchard with a program that helps control both NOW and secondary insects, and delivers excellent efficacy, greater efficiency and opportunity for higher marketable yields. “When insecticide applications are timed to control multiple pests, they do their best work,” says Garrett Gilcrease, Syngenta Agronomy Service Representative. You know your orchards better than anyone. What does optimal timing and ideal formulation look like for you? Syngenta offers proven insecticides for flexible, fully customizable control of pests in almonds, walnuts and pistachios. You decide what, you decide how and you decide when. With early-season weather already causing orchard stress, it’s important to reduce the risk of additional damage by managing pests now – in a way that extends control in the weeks to come. With multiple tools at your disposal, here are three that can be used in a program customized to deliver optimum results in your tree nut orchards. Provided by Syngenta When damaging pests threaten your almonds, walnuts or pistachios, Minecto Pro, Besiege and Proclaim deliver dominance over pests for less rejected nuts and higher profit potential at harvest. These insecticides work together as a powerful, dynamic trio to address challenges in the field, giving you the opportunity to customize your program for maximum profit opportunity. Contact your local retailer or Syngenta representative to create your personalized management program with proven efficacy, flexibility and control all-season-long. Overlapping Pests A broad-spectrum, foliar insecticide, Minecto ® Pro controls navel orangeworm, as well as other tree nut pests including peach twig borer and spider mites. Harnessing the power of two complementary active ingredients, cyantraniliprole and abamectin, into one convenient premix formulation, Minecto Pro protects against multiple pest populations that overlap or occur at the same time. It’s a formula flexible enough to fit into any management plan to meet the needs that your orchard demands. Dual Action Similarly, Besiege ® insecticide provides dual-action protection against the most difficult lepidopteran pests, including NOW. Besiege also delivers excellent efficacy against peach twig borer, codling moth, leaffooted plant bug and walnut husk fly. Ideal for application at hull split, it offers excellent knockdown and long- lasting residual. Larval Control Proclaim ® insecticide is the worm specialist for almonds, providing a unique mode of action for control against NOW larvae before they damage nuts and even as they hatch from eggs. Proclaim also offers knockdown activity against adults and suppression of mites for two-to- three weeks after application. Proclaim has minimal impact on beneficial populations. In any pest control program, be sure to rotate modes of action to manage against resistance.
