INSECTICIDEFLONICAMID
Systemic insecticide
Flonicamid is a systemic insecticide discovered by ISK. ISK has developed flonicamid
on a global basis since the late 1990's, and it is registered in over forty countries
including the Americas, Asia, Europe and Africa mainly as a foliar application.
Flonicamid exhibits excellent performance for control of almost all important aphid
species in apples, peaches, wheat, potato vegetables, cotton and ornamentals, etc.
Flonicamid has no negative impact on pollinating insects or natural enemies, and thus,
flonicamid will provide a new option for integrated pest management programs.
Flonicamid also has a good toxicological, environmental and ecotoxicological profile.

Application

Mode of Action

With foliar spray application at the rates of 50-100 g a.i./ha, flonicamid
exhibits excellent aphicidal activity and also shows good insecticidal
activity against other sucking insect pests such as thrips, whiteflies,
planthoppers, leafhoppers, plant bugs, and mealybugs in fruit trees,cereals, rice, potatoes, cotton, vegetables and ornamentals. Flonicamidsoil applications also provide control of the foliar pests mentioned above.

Flonicamid rapidly inhibits the feeding behavior of aphids, and has
better action through ingestion than by contact.
Its mode of action is different from other insecticides such as neonicotinoids, pymetrozine and pyrifluquinazon.
Flonicamid belongs to IRAC Group 29 and is the only insecticide in thisclass.
