Poncho® Vantage™ 610 FS

A Biological Shield for Seeds

Poncho® Votivo™ 610 FS by Basf S.A. is more than just a seed treatment; it is a prime example of integrating chemical control with biological support. Manufactured in Brazil, this product has become a benchmark in intensive agriculture, where controlling soil-borne pests is critical for maintaining optimal plant density.

A Double-Action Defense

The uniqueness of the formula lies in the synergy between clothianidin, a potent neonicotinoid, and specialized Bacillus firmus bacteria. While the chemical component instantly neutralizes wireworms, cutworms, and flea beetles, the biological component creates a protective barrier around the root system, actively suppressing nematodes.

Key Technical Features

• Systemic Action: The product is absorbed and distributed evenly throughout the plant, providing protection from germination through the early leaf development stages.
• Versatility: The seed treatment is effective across a wide range of crops, including corn, sugar beets, oilseed rape, and sunflowers.
• Precision Control: With application rates ranging from 2.0 to 3.0 L/t, the treatment can be tailored to the specific infestation levels of the soil.

The reputation of Poncho® Votivo™ 610 FS on the global market is built on consistent, predictable results. During early planting seasons, when soil temperatures are low and seedlings are particularly vulnerable to pests like the frit fly or weevils, this suspension concentrate serves as a reliable tool for agronomists, minimizing the risks of uneven crop stands.
