This advanced nematicide is formulated with fluopyram, a highly effective active ingredient that provides long-lasting control of root-knot nematodes. Designed to protect crop roots from early damage, this systemic solution moves within the plant to ensure comprehensive, internal protection. Ideal for crops such as tomatoes, carrots, and potatoes, it helps promote strong, healthy root systems and improved yields.
Active Ingredient & Formulation
Composition: Fluopyram 34.48% SC
Chemical Class: Pyridinyl-ethyl-benzamide
Formulation Type: Suspension Concentrate
Systemic Action: Yes
Mode of Action
Fluopyram acts by selectively blocking Complex II of the mitochondrial respiration chain in nematodes. This leads to a rapid energy shutdown, causing the nematodes to become immobile and die shortly after exposure. Visible effects include a needle-like posture in affected nematodes followed by death.
Key Advantages
Strong and Sustained Protection: Offers extended control of root-knot nematodes, reducing crop stress and supporting healthier growth
Systemic Movement: Effectively translocates through plant tissues for full-root zone protection
Low Use Rate: Economical application with excellent return on investment
Versatile Use: Can be applied via drip irrigation or drenching
Safe Profile: Designed to be user- and environment-friendly when used as directed
Crop-Friendly: Compatible with integrated pest and disease management practices
Usage Recommendations
| Crop | Target Pest | Dose per Acre (ml) | Dose per Liter (ml) |
|---|
| Tomato | Root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) | 300 | 2 |
Application Method:
Apply through drip irrigation or soil drenching—preferably at planting or as a pre-plant treatment for best results in managing nematode populations in the root zone.
Additional Notes
Also effective on nematodes in crops like carrots and potatoes
Compatible with most common agricultural additives like sticking agents
Regular monitoring of pest pressure is recommended for optimal timing
Caution
Use only as directed. Avoid contamination of water bodies and follow safety measures during handling and application. Not intended for foliar use.
Important: Always read and follow the instructions provided on the product label and consult local agricultural guidelines before application
