Agrarian business requires a certain skill, experience, knowledge and sufficient efforts. Producers of agricultural products face the task of controlling weeds, insects, diseases - everything that can harm cultivated plants in some way. The world leader of the SZR, the German company BASF, offers a reliable and effective product to help - soil insecticide Regent 20G.
Key characteristics Active ingredient Regent 20G – fipronil. A unique, innovative substance that has a high degree of protection against many organisms that cause damage to cultivated plants. For more than 20 years in the SRH market, leading positions among insecticides. The reliability of the drug has been tested in 60 countries on more than 200 species of insects.
Regent 20G provides optimal control of known insect pests:
beetroot flea,
larva of common beet and alfalfa weevil,
wire and false wire,
gnawing scoop,

May beetle larva,
plate-bearded beetle and others.
Among other things, the drug is also active against such a dangerous quarantine
corn pest as Diabrotica virgifera virgifera. With its wide spectrum of activity, the product does not have a negative effect on soil microorganisms, which is important. When the substance is distributed on the soil, the risk of toxic effects on bees is also excluded. Regent 20G does not exhibit toxicity to earthworms and is low-toxic to ticks. The product is approved for use on
potatoes, corn, sugar beet, sunflower, tomatoes and hops. The drug is non-volatile (there is no exposure to the atmosphere) and does not have a deterrent effect (repellent). When applied, it remains on the soil locally in a layer near the roots, providing maximum protection to the cultivated plant. Regent 20G is characterized by high efficiency - the result is manifested at relatively small doses and exclusively on insects. Convenient form (granules), provides safety for a person when using.
Principle of action Regent 20G
The insecticide has a contact and intestinal effect. The essence of ego is to disrupt the work of the central nervous system of the phytophagous. Getting inside, Regent 20G affects the process of natural functioning of the pest, synthesizing irreversible overexcitation of the central nervous system, which in turn leads to the latter's death. The product has a particularly strong effect on wireworms. This is one of the most serious pests in agriculture. Yes, only 6-8 pieces of these phytophages per 1 sq.m. potato field can cause huge damage to the crop, destroying up to 60% of all planted. In corn fields, wireworms eat the embryo and endosperm of the seed, and subsequently the sprouts, which significantly reduces the density of crops. Wireworms are able to eat sugar beets at all stages of its vegetation, causing enormous damage to the culture, which also manifests itself in the deterioration of the quality of the product itself. And for tomatoes, saving their root system from these insects is practically a whole art. The difficulty in the fight against wireworms lies in the typical undulation and stretching during their activity. Therefore, an insecticide is needed, which can be applied before or during the planting (sowing) of the crop, and which will have a prolonged effect. Most of the approved drugs are not sufficiently effective - organophosphates, carbamates, pyrethroids and necotinoids. And organochlorines that are stable in the soil are not allowed to be used. But, thanks to the unique ability of Regent 20G to form a protective screen around plant organs, the duration of the protective property can reach 90-120 days, which is confirmed by special scientific studies.
Instructions for use
When processing potato fields, you should adhere to the concentration of Regent 20G in the amount of 5 kg per 1 ha. It should be applied once, it is better to use special coulters and dispensers when planting or when turning ridges. To protect hops from the larvae of the alfalfa weevil, 5 kg - 8 kg of the product is used once per 1 ha of arable land. Processing should take place after the adults have laid eggs. The same scheme applies to crops of
sunflower, corn, sugar beets, and tomatoes. Processing is carried out once. If during sowing (planting) a special applicator is used, which facilitates accurate dosing of Regent 20G, then 5 kg per 1 ha is used. If the treatment will be carried out before sowing (planting) in a continuous manner with subsequent embedding in the soil, you should use 10 kg of the product per 1 ha of fields. Compliance with the recommendations for the use of the Regent 20G insecticide provides not only the maximum result of controlling dangerous insect pests, but also guarantees the absence of a negative impact on the development of the crop, its growth and phytotoxicity.
