Sirocco

Efficient pest control for field crops with «Sirocco»

«Sirocco» is a trusted organophosphate insecticide and acaricide produced by ZAT «Avgust-Bel» (Republic of Belarus). Based on dimethoate, this formulation serves as a key tool for agronomists managing heavy pest pressure in commercial farming. Designed as an emulsifiable concentrate, it ensures rapid action upon contact with the target pests.

Application scenarios and targeted pests

The product is specifically engineered for use on winter wheat, rapeseed, soybeans, forage beet, and field peas. Its primary strength lies in its versatility across different field operations:

• Cereal protection: highly effective against sunn pests (Eurygaster integriceps), cereal flies, and leaf beetles.
• Pulse and oilseed management: controls a wide range of threats including rapeseed beetles, pea weevils, pod borers, and various aphids.
• General crop health: combats flea beetles and weevils in forage beet crops.

Operational guidelines for farmers

«Sirocco» is applied via standard crop spraying during the vegetation period. The recommended dosage range is 0.5 – 1.0 L/ha, providing flexibility based on the infestation density. Given its classification as a Category 2 hazard product, strict adherence to safety protocols is mandatory during preparation and application.

For optimal results and resistance management, limit treatment to 1–2 applications per season. Growers must observe a pre-harvest interval of 30–40 days after the final application to ensure the compliance of the harvested crop. Choosing «Sirocco» means selecting a proven, reliable solution for consistent field performance.
