Provanto Duplet 112,5 SC

Double-Action Defense: Why Provanto Duplet 112.5 SC Stands Out

In fields where the Colorado potato beetle has developed resistance to single-active-ingredient products, the combination approach is the only way forward. Provanto Duplet 112.5 SC, developed by the French company SBM Développement S.A.S., utilizes a blend of imidacloprid and beta-cyfluthrin. This provides a synergistic effect: systemic protection for new growth and a contact-based 'knockdown' effect for adult pests.

The Power of Dual-Action Chemistry

The core advantage of this insecticide is its two-pronged attack. Imidacloprid penetrates plant tissues, making the crop toxic to sap-feeding and leaf-chewing insects. Meanwhile, beta-cyfluthrin provides immediate contact activity, which is vital during high-pressure infestations. The product is not just for the Colorado beetle; it is highly effective against aphids, leafhoppers, and bugs, making it a versatile tool in a grower's arsenal.

Key Operational Benefits

• Systemic Reliability: The product is absorbed rapidly, meaning its efficacy is not compromised by rain occurring a few hours after application.
• Resistance Management: The dual-mode approach significantly lowers the risk of pest populations developing resistance to the treatment.
• Flexible Application Rates: A dosage range of 0.5 to 1.0 L/ha allows for cost-effective adjustments based on the specific pest pressure in your fields.

Guidelines for Responsible Use

As a Class 3 pesticide, Provanto Duplet requires standard safety precautions during application. It is crucial to observe the 20-day pre-harvest interval (PHI) to ensure the complete breakdown of active substances in the potato tubers. The product is limited to a maximum of two applications per season. To maximize the longevity of this tool, we recommend rotating it with insecticides from different chemical classes.

This insecticide is designed for professionals who prioritize the reliability of French agricultural technology and seek a comprehensive solution to pest control without the hassle of preparing complex tank mixes.
