Provanto Vernal 480 SC

Reliable Protection for Orchards and Fields: Provanto Vernal 480 SC

In the segment of professional systemic insecticides, Provanto Vernal 480 SC occupies a niche of high-efficiency solutions for controlling key pests in fruit and vegetable crops. The active ingredient, thiacloprid (a neonicotinoid), has established itself as a powerful tool against insects while maintaining relative safety for beneficial entomophages, which is crucial for integrated pest management (IPM) systems.

Core Capabilities and Application

This insecticide-acaricide provides systemic control over pest populations by penetrating plant tissues. It is particularly effective in combating:

• Apple blossom weevils, leafrollers, aphids, and codling moths on apple trees.
• Colorado potato beetles and weevils on potatoes.

The suspension concentrate formulation ensures uniform distribution of the working solution during foliage spraying. Systemic action means the product is translocated within the plant, protecting new growth from cryptic pests that are often difficult to reach with contact-only products.

Regulations and Safety

The product belongs to the 2nd hazard class. To achieve maximum efficacy with minimal environmental impact, manufacturers recommend adhering to the application rate of 0.2–0.4 L/ha. Crucially, the number of applications is limited to two per season, with a pre-harvest interval (PHI) of 20–30 days. This strategy effectively disrupts the insect life cycle while minimizing the risk of resistance.

The production is distributed across facilities owned by Bayer AG (Germany), Excwold Technologies Ltd (UK), Imperial Chemical Logistics GmbH (Germany), Bayer SAS (France), and Schirm GmbH (Germany), which reinforces the high quality standards and technological formulation excellence characteristic of European agrochemistry.
