VERIMARK

Advanced crop protection via drip irrigation

When working with vegetable crops in both open and protected ground, hidden pests remain the biggest challenge. Verimark from «DuPont International Operations Sarl» is a systemic insecticide that fundamentally changes the protection approach. Based on cyantraniliprole, it acts not only on contact but also penetrates plant tissues, making it indispensable for controlling whiteflies, aphids, thrips, and leafminers.

Operational efficiency and application methods

The main advantage of Verimark is its flexibility. Unlike traditional insecticides that require sprayer equipment, this product is perfectly adapted for application via drip irrigation. This saves significant resources, as you deliver protection directly to the root zone. The product is quickly absorbed by the plant, creating a powerful barrier against pests during the early stages of development. For tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, cabbage, and onions, it is vital to follow the dosage of 0.5–1 L/ha, with a maximum limit of two applications per season.

Field application highlights

• Systemic action: The active ingredient distributes quickly throughout the plant biomass, protecting new growth.
• Pest control: Highly effective against a wide spectrum: from cutworms to cabbage moths and flea beetles.
• Safety: Classified under hazard class 3, requiring standard safety precautions.
• Pre-harvest interval: The final application is made 14–30 days before harvest, allowing for efficient sales logistics.

For an agronomist, using this insecticide is an opportunity to reduce plant stress during critical growth phases. Since Verimark works from within, you get clean yields with no visible residue, which is essential for maintaining the commercial quality of vegetable products on supermarket shelves.
