Modesto 480 FS

Maximum Protection for Oilseed Rape Seedlings

The success of an oilseed rape crop is often determined in the first few weeks after emergence. Modesto 480 FS is a professional-grade seed treatment designed to shield crops from heavy pest pressure during their most vulnerable growth stages. By combining clothianidin, thiacloprid, and beta-cyfluthrin, this product provides a multi-layered defense against both soil-borne and foliar pests.

Why Modesto 480 FS is the Professional Choice

• Triple-Action Efficacy: The synergy between neonicotinoids and pyrethroids ensures both systemic internal protection and a fast-acting contact "knockdown" effect against early-season insects.
• Broad-Spectrum Control: It is highly effective against wireworms, cruciferous flea beetles, cabbage flies, and other pests that threaten to devastate fields in the seedling-to-two-leaf stage.
• Crop Uniformity: Consistent application leads to uniform plant stands, which is essential for ensuring successful overwintering and maximizing yield potential.
