Superkil 440

Professional pest control: The power of Superkil 440

Managing high-density pest populations requires a reliable and heavy-duty solution. Produced by Agrifar S.A. (Belgium), Superkil 440 combines Cypermethrin and Chlorpyrifos to deliver a dual-action punch: rapid contact knockdown and prolonged fumigation effect. This synergy makes it a cornerstone for integrated pest management in high-value cropping systems.

Where Superkil 440 proves its value

• Orchard and field crop protection: Ideal for controlling leaf rollers in apple orchards and Colorado potato beetles. It is equally effective against pest complexes in winter wheat, barley, soy, and fodder beets.
• Overcoming resistance: Because it acts through two different modes of action, it is highly effective against insects that have started to develop resistance to standard pyrethroids, including cabbage flea beetles and rapeseed blossom beetles.
• Deep action: The formulation is designed to reach pests hiding in dense foliage or deep within the plant structure, ensuring comprehensive crop safety.

Operational guidelines

As a concentrate emulsion, Superkil 440 is designed for easy mixing. Use a rate of 0.5–1.5 liters per hectare depending on the pest pressure. Application should be performed via spraying during the vegetation period. For optimal performance, conduct applications during cooler hours of the day (under 25°C) to prevent rapid degradation of the active ingredients.

Being a Class 2 hazardous substance, operators must wear appropriate protective gear. You are limited to two applications per season, with a mandatory pre-harvest interval of 30 to 40 days. By incorporating Superkil 440 into your rotation strategy, you effectively manage the pest cycle and protect your yield potential from early to late-season threats.
