Protect DUO

Protect DUO: A Dual-Action Solution for Crop Protection

For professional vegetable growers, managing pests like the Colorado potato beetle, aphids, and wireworms requires more than just standard treatment. The Ukrainian company "Agro Protection" has introduced "Protect DUO," a systematic insecticide designed to provide comprehensive control through the synergy of two powerful neonicotinoids: clothianidin and thiacloprid.

Why Choose Protect DUO?

The core strength of this formulation lies in its dual-mode action. Clothianidin provides an immediate 'knockdown' effect, effectively stopping pest feeding upon contact or ingestion. Thiacloprid complements this by providing long-lasting systemic protection, traveling within the plant to safeguard new growth. This combination makes it a versatile tool for protecting tomatoes and potatoes throughout the critical stages of the growing season.

• Systemic Efficacy: The suspension concentrate formulation ensures rapid absorption, providing protection even in hard-to-reach areas of the canopy.
• Broad Spectrum: Specifically engineered to tackle both chewing pests, such as the Colorado potato beetle, and sucking insects like aphids and thrips.
• Application Efficiency: With a dosage range of 0.5 – 1.0 L/ha, it offers a cost-effective solution for large-scale field applications.

Operational Guidelines

As a Class 2 hazard substance, "Protect DUO" requires careful handling. Growers should always use recommended personal protective equipment and apply the product during the vegetative growth stage. By incorporating this product into an integrated pest management (IPM) program, farmers can significantly reduce the number of sprays needed, ensuring a healthier crop and a more predictable yield.

The "Protect DUO" insecticide by "Agro Protection" stands as a testament to modern agricultural engineering, providing reliable performance for farmers who prioritize quality and efficiency in their crop management strategies.
