Abuhald 360 SC insecticide for controlling Tuta absoluta and tunnel makers 250 ml

Uphold 360 SC insecticide for combating Tuta absoluta and tunnel makers 250 ml Uphold 360 SC insecticide for combating Tuta absoluta and tunnel makers 250 ml Uphold 360 SC insecticide, both systemic and non-systemic, contains a mixture of two active substances: Spinetoram at 6% and Methoxyfenozide at 30%. It is used to control a range of insect pests in vegetable, fruit, and grain crops, especially Tuta absoluta, thrips, whitefly, tunnel makers, and cutworms when used according to the label instructions. Uphold 360 SC features a dual formulation combining systemic and non-systemic effects, helping to penetrate insect tissues, disrupt the nervous system, and affect certain growth stages of some pests, thus contributing to pest control when used as part of an integrated management program. It is a suitable option among agricultural insecticides, especially when targeting difficult pests like Tuta absoluta and tunnel makers. A insecticide for Tuta absoluta and tunnel makers Tuta absoluta and tunnel makers are troublesome pests in vegetables, especially in crops like tomatoes and some sensitive crops, because they feed inside the tissue of leaves or fruits, making them harder to reach compared to pests on the plant surface. Therefore, farmers need an effective, dual-action formulation with precise application and high coverage quality. Uphold 360 SC works on a wide range of pests through its dual effect, helping to reduce insect activity and feeding, and affecting some growth stages. However, it should be used at the first sign of infestation or early pest activity, not waiting until the infestation spreads inside the plant or fruits.

Uses of Uphold 360 SC in vegetables, fruits, and grains Uphold 360 SC is used to combat important pests in vegetable, fruit, and grain crops, especially when infestations involve hard-to-reach insects like tunnel makers or Tuta absoluta. It is also suitable for thrips, whitefly, and cutworms, depending on the crop and recommended dose. It can be part of a broader pest control program that includes early diagnosis, pest monitoring, appropriate timing of spraying, and using products from the pest control section, including insecticides and rodent control, depending on the pest and crop. Method of using Uphold 360 SC Use Uphold 360 SC at a rate of 6 to 18 ml per 20 liters of water, depending on crop type, pest, and infestation severity. Shake the container well before use, then add the required amount to the spray tank after partially filling it with water, with good stirring, then complete with the required amount of water. Spray the solution on the plant, focusing on pest habitats, especially the underside of leaves, new growth, and tunnel activity sites. Good coverage quality is important for good results, so suitable spraying equipment from the section of sprayers, fertilizers, and pesticides should be used. Spraying rate and safety period Based on available data, Uphold can be used from 3 to 6 sprays per season, depending on infestation severity, crop type, and approved program. The pre-harvest safety period ranges from 1 to 21 days depending on the crop and pest, so the label must be carefully checked before application, especially for crops close to harvest. Do not repeat spraying without an actual assessment of infestation level, as overuse of pesticides may increase resistance and affect the effectiveness of control programs during the season. Important tips for controlling Tuta and tunnel makers For the best results, start control at early pest detection, as tunnel makers and Tuta may hide inside plant tissues, reducing control efficiency if intervention is delayed. It is also recommended to combine spraying with traps and visual monitoring of leaves and fruits to evaluate infestation levels. Rotate pesticides among different chemical groups and avoid relying on the same active ingredients throughout the season. Use suitable spraying equipment from the pesticide equipment section, especially for larger areas requiring uniform and continuous coverage. Resistance management when using Uphold 360 SC Since Uphold contains two active substances, it can be part of a good resistance management program, but this does not mean using it repeatedly without rotation. Pests like Tuta absoluta, whitefly, and thrips may develop resistance if the same chemical groups are used repeatedly for long periods. Therefore, Uphold should be used within a balanced program based on switching pesticides, monitoring infestation, avoiding dose escalation, and not re-spraying unless necessary and according to label instructions. It is also preferable not to use more than one pesticide with the same mode of action in consecutive sprays without a valid reason. Precautions for using Uphold 360 SC Read the label and technical leaflet before use. Do not use the product at a dose higher than recommended. Do not mix randomly with other pesticides or fertilizers without compatibility verification. Use gloves, mask, and protective glasses during preparation and spraying. Avoid spraying during strong wind or high temperatures. Do not spray when bees or beneficial insects are present in the treatment area. Follow the safety period according to crop type. Store the container in a safe place away from children, animals, and food sources. Do not reuse the empty container for other purposes. Follow the instructions in the attached leaflet for best results. Is Uphold suitable for integrated pest management programs? Yes, Uphold 360 SC can be incorporated into IPM programs when used thoughtfully. It is best included as part of a program that involves early monitoring, removing heavily infested parts when needed, using appropriate traps, rotating active ingredients, and improving spray timing instead of relying on random spraying. It should be noted that the success of the program depends not only on the pesticide but also on correct pest diagnosis, choosing the right timing, good coverage, and considering weather conditions during spraying.
