Dandy: Advanced Crop Protection from Globachem

In intensive farming, protecting winter cereals from pest complexes requires reliable and high-performance solutions. The insecticide «Dandy», produced by the Belgian company Globachem, represents a classic approach to combining active ingredients to achieve maximum control of phytophages in wheat and barley crops. The product is specifically designed as a heavy-duty tool against a wide spectrum of insects, ranging from the cereal ground beetle to aphids and thrips.

Why Dandy maintains its market position

The success of this formulation on the market stems from the synergy of two components: cypermethrin and chlorpyrifos. This combination provides both an immediate knockdown effect and long-lasting residual protection. Globachem has engineered this emulsifiable concentrate to ensure optimal penetration through the insect cuticle, offering both contact and systemic activity.

• Target Pests: Cereal ground beetle, sunn pest (Eurygaster integriceps), cereal flies, aphids, thrips, and cereal leaf beetle (Oulema).
• Flexible Application: With a recommended dosage of 0.5–1.0 L/ha, growers can adjust application rates to match the current phytosanitary conditions of the field.
• Safety and Regulations: The product is classified under Hazard Class 2, requiring a 30-day pre-harvest interval. A maximum of 2 applications per season is permitted.

«Dandy» has established itself as an essential tool for agronomists aiming to mitigate yield loss risks caused by damage to leaves and stems. Thanks to its pronounced systemic action, it effectively manages pests even in dense canopy areas where standard spray coverage might be challenging to achieve.
