Matador is a highly effective systemic seed and planting material treatment designed to protect various agricultural crops, including sugar beet, potato, rapeseed, eggplant, pepper, cabbage, and tomatoes. The active ingredient of the preparation is imidacloprid at a concentration of 200 g/l, which provides reliable protection against a wide range of pests such as Colorado beetles, larvae, aphids, wireworms, caterpillars, and ground beetles. The preparation is available in the form of a liquid concentrate suspension (LCS) and is applied to seeds and tubers prior to planting, allowing prevention of plant infection at early growth stages.
Matador is effective on 1000 kg of planting material, with application rates varying depending on the crop: for sugar beet, 400-500 ml per 100,000 seeds are recommended, while for potato, 0.9-1 liter per ton of planting material is advised. Due to the systemic action of imidacloprid, the preparation rapidly eliminates soil pests and prevents their reproduction during the vegetation period, significantly increasing crop yield and quality.
A key feature of Matador is its safety for treated plants: the active ingredient does not accumulate in tubers or seeds, ensuring high product quality and safety. The preparation from the domestic manufacturer Ukravit provides convenient application and reliable protection for crops without requiring manual pest collection, saving farmers time and labor costs.
