Description

Pirimicarb CAS NO 23103-98-2 is a selective carbamate insecticide belonging to the dimethylcarbamate chemical class. It is valued for its systemic and contact action, providing effective control against a range of aphid species while demonstrating selectivity that helps preserve beneficial insect populations. This product is essential for agricultural professionals and formulators seeking reliable crop protection solutions for fruits, vegetables, and cereals.

Application

• Aphid Control in Agriculture: Primary use for controlling aphids (e.g., green peach aphid, cotton aphid) in a wide variety of crops including cereals, potatoes, sugar beets, and leafy vegetables.
• Fruit and Vine Protection: Applied in orchards and vineyards to protect apples, pears, peaches, and grapes from damaging aphid infestations.
• Ornamental Plant Protection: Used in horticulture and greenhouse settings to manage aphid populations on ornamental plants and nursery stock.
• Integrated Pest Management (IPM): A key component in IPM programs due to its selectivity, which minimizes impact on pollinators and natural predators like ladybugs and lacewings.
• Professional Pest Control Formulations: Serves as a technical-grade active ingredient for the manufacture of emulsifiable concentrates (EC), wettable powders (WP), and soluble concentrates (SL).
• Seed Treatment: Utilized in some seed treatment formulations to provide early-season protection against soil-borne and early-feeding aphids.
