Sugar beet variety Laser is characterized by improved agronomic and biological traits due to the application of pre-sowing laser irradiation of seeds. This treatment stimulates plant growth, increases biological yield, improves the technological quality of roots and their storability. The most pronounced positive effect is achieved when seeds are irradiated with a laser for 10 minutes, promoting the development of more resilient and productive plants.
In addition, Laser is a biological insecticide based on the active ingredient spinosad (480 g/l), designed to protect agricultural crops from various pests, including potato beetles, thrips, mites, and caterpillars. This product acts via contact-stomach mechanism, causing paralysis of the insect nervous system, leading to their death. Laser exhibits efficacy comparable to chemical insecticides, yet it is an environmentally safe product derived from fermentation of soil bacterium Saccharopolyspora spinosae and does not induce pest resistance.
The insecticide Laser is applied by spraying during the vegetation period, providing a residual effect lasting up to three weeks depending on climatic conditions. The product is suitable for use both in open fields and greenhouses, with varying volumes of water for preparing the working solution depending on crop type and plant development stage. Pre-harvest withholding period is 3 days for vegetables and potatoes, 7 days for fruit trees, and 14 days for root crops, allowing effective and safe protection of crops.
