Dantop 50

Systemic Protection for High-Intensity Farming

When you are managing pest pressure on a large scale, you cannot afford uncertainty. Dantop 50, produced by Sumitomo Chemical Agro Europe S.A.S., is a high-performance insecticide designed for those who value efficiency and precise systemic action. Powered by clothianidin, a robust neonicotinoid, it targets pests with surgical precision while ensuring the crop remains protected from the inside out.

Operational Performance in the Field

Dantop 50 comes as water-soluble granules, which eliminates dust issues during mixing and ensures it dissolves quickly in the spray tank. Its systemic nature is the real game-changer: the active ingredient translocates throughout the plant tissues. Even if the spray coverage isn't 100% perfect, the plant itself becomes the delivery system, neutralizing pests that try to feed on it.

• Target Range: Exceptionally effective against weevils on winter rapeseed, leafrollers and aphids in apple orchards, and a definitive solution for Colorado potato beetles.
• Efficiency: With application rates up to 0.5 kg/ha, you get a clean, reliable result without the need for constant, costly re-applications.
• Reliability: It is a single-application per season product. This forces you to time your spraying right, but once it is on, the protection is solid.

Agronomic Tips for Best Results

Safety is key—as a Class 3 hazard product, standard PPE is a must for the mixing crew. Keep in mind that pre-harvest intervals are critical (20 days for potato crops, etc.). Planning is everything, as you only get one shot per season, so monitor the pest threshold closely before hitting the field. For those managing rapeseed, apple trees, or potato fields, Dantop 50 offers a professional-grade insurance policy against yield-sapping infestations.
