Description

Formetanate is a carbamate acaricide and insecticide known for its specific activity against mites and certain insect pests. It is valued for its effectiveness in integrated pest management (IPM) programs, offering a mode of action that can help manage resistance. This product is primarily used by manufacturers of agricultural chemicals and formulators serving the crop protection industry. Formetanate CAS NO 22259-30-9 is a key technical-grade active ingredient for producing end-use formulations.

Application

• As a technical-grade active ingredient in the formulation of agricultural miticides and insecticides.
• Control of spider mites (Tetranychus spp.) and other phytophagous mites in fruit orchards, vineyards, and ornamental plants.
• Management of certain sucking insect pests in various cropping systems.
• Use in integrated pest management (IPM) rotations to mitigate pest resistance to other chemical classes.
• Professional agricultural and horticultural applications for protected and field crops.
• Manufacture of soluble concentrates (SL) and wettable powders (WP) for foliar application.
