Systemic crop protection against hidden threats

"Akinak, KS" from the Cherkasy-based "Fabryka Ahrokhimikativ" is a practical tool for agronomists to control pests that are difficult to reach with direct contact. Due to its systemic action, the preparation penetrates plant tissues, rendering them inedible for insects for up to a month. This solution is chosen when it is necessary to stop the spread of pests feeding inside leaves or stems, where conventional contact insecticides fail.

Practical application scenarios

Under field conditions, "Akinak, KS" addresses the need for quick field sanitization. The suspension concentrate is easy to prepare: it does not clog sprayer nozzles and distributes evenly over the leaf surface. Farmers prefer this insecticide in the following cases:

• When the first pest clusters appear: its systemic nature allows for managing the problem at an early stage, preventing mass outbreaks.
• For protecting crops with dense canopy: the active ingredient translocates through the plant, reaching areas difficult to cover with spraying.
• In integrated pest management schemes requiring a reliable barrier with a long residual effect — up to 30 days of waiting period ensure crop safety until harvest.

Application guidelines

The product is most effective when applied via foliar spraying. The dosage rate is 0.2–0.25 L/ha. Considering its 3rd hazard class, strict adherence to the regulations is crucial: just one application per season effectively covers the life cycle of key pests without imposing excessive pesticide pressure on the soil. "Akinak, KS" represents a balance between systemic efficacy and predictable results, highly valued in intensive farming.
