Dow AgroSciences launches new website

Dow AgroSciences launched a website intended to provide visitors with best management practices of fruit and vegetable production. The site, accessible at www.DelegateInsecticide.com or www.RadiantInsecticide.com, offers helpful tips on resistance management. It also illustrates the roles Delegate and Radiant insecticides play in spray programs.

The website houses detailed guidelines for proper Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs and Insecticide Resistance Management (IRM) strategies. Preventing and managing resistance to insecticides is an important stewardship practice that ensures insect control products will remain effective long-term.

Delegate and Radiant are two products designed to control damaging pests in the fruit and vegetable industries. The Group 5 chemistry of both products supplies producers with an alternative mode of action for resistance management.

Visitors to the website can obtain in-depth analysis of the pests Delegate and Radiant control, including application rates. Visitors can also view recent performance data, educational tutorials and personal reports from the orchard, grove or field.

“We want to provide producers with as many instructive resources as possible,” Hub Miller, Dow AgroSciences, said. “This website will combine with our expert field staff to answer the many questions that crop up on a day-to-day basis.”

Visit www.DelegateInsecticide.com or www.RadiantInsecticide.com to learn more about Delegate and Radiant. From a Dow AgroSciences Press Releaase
