Imidor Pro

Securing the Early Stage: Field Experience with Imidor Pro

Crop success starts long before emergence—it begins with high-quality seed treatment. As an agronomist, I need solutions that perform reliably in the field, which is why we’ve integrated «Imidor Pro» by «Shchelkovo Agrokhim-KZ» into our routine. It is a robust tool that addresses pest pressure before it can even impact our plant density.

Systemic Protection Strategy

The active ingredient, imidacloprid, is a classic for a reason. Its systemic action means the protection travels from the seed coat directly into the germinating plant, providing a protective barrier that contact sprays simply cannot match. Whether we are dealing with wireworms in sunflower fields or cereal flies in winter wheat, this product acts as a silent guardian during the most vulnerable developmental stages.

Operational Efficiency

From an equipment perspective, the formulation is excellent. As a suspension concentrate, it mixes smoothly and doesn’t clog our treatment machinery, which is vital during the busy sowing season. Depending on the crop and the expected pest pressure, application rates range from 0.5 to 3.0 L/t. We typically adjust this based on soil history, and the results consistently show strong, uniform growth without gaps caused by insect damage.

• Target Crops: Winter oilseed rape, sunflower, winter barley, winter wheat.
• Control: Effectively targets cutworms, wireworms, flea beetles, cereal flies, and aphids.
• Application: A single treatment provides the necessary coverage for the early vegetative stages, simplifying storage logistics.

Handling requires standard safety precautions (Class 3 hazard), which is common for modern seed treatment products. Post-treatment, the seeds remain free-flowing, preventing issues in the seed drills and ensuring precise planting rates. For farm operators, this translates to less downtime and more confidence that the investment in high-quality seeds will pay off.
