Omait 57%

Professional protection against orchard and field mites

Managing mite infestations in orchards and soybeans is a high-stakes task. Spider mites and brown fruit mites can devastate a crop in no time if not controlled early. "Omite 57%" acts as a heavy-duty tool in our plant protection program, providing long-lasting control of mite populations at all developmental stages.

Field Experience and Application

From an operator's perspective, I value "Omite 57%" for its rapid contact-based action. It effectively paralyzes the pests on contact, while its residual activity ensures that newly hatched mites are dealt with before they can cause significant damage. The emulsifiable concentrate is easy to manage in the spray tank, and the application rate of 1.2–1.8 L/ha gives us the flexibility to adjust the treatment based on the severity of the infestation.

• Crops: Excellent performance on apples, pears, peaches, plums, vineyards, and soybeans.
• Targets: Reliable control of brown fruit mites and spider mites.
• Regimen: We typically perform 1–2 treatments per season, ensuring a 30–40 day pre-harvest interval.

Operational Best Practices

Because this is a contact-action pesticide, thorough coverage is critical. When spraying, we ensure our equipment is calibrated to reach the undersides of the leaves, as that is where mites reside and lay their eggs. Given its Class 2 toxicity rating, the use of proper personal protective equipment is mandatory. By using "Omite 57%," we achieve clean, healthy crops and secure our yields effectively, making it a staple in our seasonal crop protection strategy.
