Borid Protect

When pests strike, you don't have time for guesswork. It provides that essential 'knockdown' effect where you can see the results just hours after the sprayer finishes the pass.

Operational efficiency and field application

The product acts both systemically and via contact. The systemic imidacloprid absorbs into the plant tissue, providing protection for 2-3 weeks, while the lambda-cyhalothrin immediately neutralizes insects already present on the crop. In practice, this often eliminates the need for a follow-up spray if the application is timed correctly.

• Application rate: 0.15–0.25 L/ha, which makes logistics and tank mixing straightforward.
• Target pests: Highly effective against meadow moths, weevils, and various flea beetles.
• Versatility: Use it across everything from sugar beet and rapeseed to soy and corn.

The application rate is key. Under heavy pressure, stick to the 0.25 L/ha mark, while 0.15 L/ha is usually sufficient for preventive measures. Since it’s a suspension concentrate, it doesn't clog nozzles when the stock solution is prepared correctly, which is a massive advantage during the peak of the season when every minute counts.

Field notes and maintenance

While classified under hazard class 3, the product is quite manageable to handle without harsh fumes that make operation unbearable. With a limit of two applications per season, it covers the requirements of most agronomic programs. If you are looking for a reliable tool to quickly mitigate pest outbreaks, this solution from Defenda is a predictable and efficient choice for your farm operations.
