ALPHASIDE 100 EC

Working with ALFASIDE 100 EC: Grain and Rapeseed Protection

This alpha-cypermethrin-based insecticide provides that quick, aggressive knockdown effect needed to stop an infestation before it causes irreversible damage to the yield.

Field Application and Handling

Depending on the pest pressure, the dosage range of 0.1–0.25 L/ha offers the necessary flexibility to adjust the treatment intensity.

• Target Crops: Winter wheat, barley, and winter rapeseed.
• Pest Control: Highly effective against aphids, thrips, cereal leaf beetles, and various flea beetles.
• Operational Constraints: The product allows for a maximum of two applications per season. With a pre-harvest interval of 20–30 days, careful planning is required, especially during unpredictable weather cycles.

Why it works in the field

The strength of ALFASIDE 100 EC lies in its dual action: it works on contact to clear the foliage immediately and provides systemic residual protection for new growth. From a maintenance perspective, it is stable and easy to store, which reduces the logistical headaches during busy farm cycles. By hitting the fields as soon as the first signs of feeding appear, you maintain the plant's health and minimize the need for secondary, costly interventions.
