In Set SC, KS

Systemic Control: Chemical Mechanism of In Set SС, КС

At the core of In Set SС, КС is imidacloprid, a second-generation neonicotinoid that fundamentally alters crop protection strategies. Its primary technical advantage is high systemic activity. Once applied to the seed surface or growing crops, the active ingredient rapidly penetrates the vascular system, distributing acropetally (from bottom to top) to active growth points.

Targeted Action on Pest Nervous Systems

The imidacloprid molecule acts as an agonist of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system of insects. In practice, this disrupts nerve impulse transmission, causing paralysis and eventual death in wireworms, aphids, thrips, and the Colorado potato beetle. Unlike contact insecticides, the systemic mechanism of In Set provides long-term protection, as the active substance remains effective even in new tissues emerging after application.

Formulation and Application Features

The product is formulated as a suspension concentrate (SC) and an emulsion for seed treatment. This physical-chemical formulation ensures high stability of the working solution and uniform coverage of the seed material. When treating sunflower, corn, or potato seeds, the active ingredient adheres firmly to the seed coat, creating a protective barrier in the immediate environment. This is critical for controlling soil-dwelling pests, such as wireworms, which cause the most damage during the germination phase.

• Safety: Hazard Class 3 (moderately hazardous). Strict adherence to application regulations is required.
• Versatility: Effective against a wide spectrum of chewing and sucking pests, including flea beetles, leafhoppers, and aphids.
• Stability: High resistance to washout by precipitation when applied to growing crops.

Recommendations from the manufacturer, China Chemical Industrial and Research Co., Ltd., emphasize the importance of uniform application. In the context of intensive agricultural practices in Ukraine, where Agrosfera LTD is the applicant, this insecticide serves as a reliable tool to reduce overall pesticide load through its extended protection period.
