Mavrik

Chemistry and Operational Mechanism

The efficiency of the insecticide "Mavrik" is centered on tau-fluvalinate (240 g/L). As a synthetic pyrethroid, it stands out due to its unique chemical architecture, which imparts exceptional stability under high-temperature conditions and solar radiation. Unlike conventional alternatives that degrade rapidly, tau-fluvalinate maintains its integrity on the leaf surface, ensuring prolonged efficacy.

Technical Specifications and Benefits

• Dual Action Profile: The formulation acts via both contact and ingestion. Once it reaches the insect, it interrupts the neural signaling system, leading to rapid knockdown effect and cessation of feeding.
• Photostability: Engineering of the molecule provides high resistance to UV degradation, which is a critical feature for field applications during peak summer months when other products lose their potency.
• Spectrum and Selectivity: Beyond its primary use against pests like the rapeseed beetle, aphids, and codling moth, the product demonstrates significant acaricidal activity. It is highly effective against mites, providing a multi-functional approach to crop protection while maintaining a favorable profile for beneficial entomofauna.

Application and Field Efficiency

Formulated as a water-in-oil emulsion, Mavrik ensures excellent dispersion in the spray tank. Recommended application rates range from 0.15 to 0.3 L/ha depending on the target pest pressure. Designed for foliar application, it covers the crop in critical vegetative stages. By allowing up to two applications per season, the product offers a robust solution for managing pest cycles in oilseed rape, orchards, vineyards, and potato crops, providing a high return on investment through superior crop health.
