Ratibor v.r.k.

Professional pest control by Zhejiang Agrin Company Ltd.

"Ratibor w.s.c." (water-soluble concentrate) is a potent insecticide developed by Zhejiang Agrin Company Ltd. that combines contact and systemic actions. Designed to manage a wide array of agricultural pests, it relies on Imidacloprid, a proven active ingredient that ensures rapid knockdown and long-lasting protection for both row crops and orchards.

Why choose Ratibor?

The core strength of Ratibor lies in its systemic mobility. Once applied, the active ingredient is absorbed by the plant tissues and translocated, providing protection to new growth that wasn't directly hit by the sprayer. This is critical for controlling hidden pests like aphids, thrips, and leafhoppers that often feed in hard-to-reach areas of the plant canopy.

• Versatility: Effective against a broad spectrum of pests including the Colorado potato beetle, fruit moth, and stink bugs.
• Compatibility: The water-soluble concentrate formula is easy to handle and mixes seamlessly in tank mixtures without clogging spray equipment.
• Cost-Efficiency: With an application rate of 0.2–0.5 L/ha, it offers an excellent return on investment for large-scale vegetable and fruit production.

Application Strategy

Classified as a category 3 hazard, proper safety precautions must be followed. The product is most effective when applied 1–2 times per season during the vegetative stage. A crucial factor for success—and safety—is adhering to the pre-harvest interval of 20–30 days. This ensures that the crop meets safety standards while allowing the insecticide to effectively purge populations of pests like the noxious turtle bug or codling moth.

Ratibor is an optimal choice for commercial growers looking for a reliable solution that offers more than just a quick surface spray. Because of its systemic nature, it is particularly useful in fields where pest pressure is consistent and rapid re-infestation is a risk. By acting internally, it compensates for uneven coverage, making it a robust addition to any integrated pest management (IPM) program.
