Antijuk Profit z.p.

Technical Basis: Imidacloprid in Systemic Protection

"Antizhuk Profit" is formulated based on Imidacloprid, a representative of the neonicotinoid chemical class. The technical value of this composition lies in its ability to penetrate the seed embryo and translocate throughout the plant tissues as it develops. Unlike narrow-spectrum contact agents, the systemic action creates an internal "immune barrier" by blocking nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the nervous system of pests. For the agronomist, this means the cessation of feeding occurs within minutes of the pest coming into contact with the treated plant tissue.

Mechanics of Pest Control

The preparation is effective against a wide spectrum of phytophages, achieved through a combined mode of action:

• Contact action: Affects the chitinous layer and respiratory system upon direct exposure to the solution.
• Systemic translocation: The active ingredient is absorbed by the root system or the sprout, rendering the seedling unpalatable to soil-dwelling and early-stage foliar pests.

The wettable powder (WP) formulation ensures a stable suspension during the preparation of the working solution. This is critical for seed treatment, as the uniformity of the active ingredient distribution on the seed surface directly determines germination rates and seedling protection during the vulnerable early developmental stages.

Practical Application

The use of "Antizhuk Profit" from Zhenjiang Agrin Company Ltd. is justified for crops most vulnerable during early vegetation phases: sugar beets, tomatoes, and cereals. Eliminating wireworms, flea beetles, and leafhoppers at the germination stage prevents critical crop thinning, effectively saving resources on reseeding and ensuring the desired stand density. Classified under hazard class 3, the product requires standard safety precautions regarding the handling of moderately toxic substances, mandating strict adherence to the use of personal protective equipment.
