VOLIAM FLEXI by Syngenta : Broad-Spectrum Insecticide

Managing complex pest spectrums that include both chewing and sucking insects is a significant challenge in modern agriculture. VOLIAM FLEXI is a pre-mix insecticidal solution designed to provide broad-spectrum control over a wide range of damaging pests. By combining two distinct modes of action in a single formulation, it offers a convenient and effective tool for integrated pest management.

Developed by Syngenta, this product contains Chlorantraniliprole (8.8% w/w) and Thiamethoxam (17.5% w/w) in a modern Suspension Concentrate (SC) formulation, ensuring excellent mixing and application properties.

Technical Details and Dual Mode of Action

This insecticide leverages the strengths of two powerful active ingredients to deliver comprehensive crop protection.

• Chlorantraniliprole (Diamide Group): Primarily targets chewing pests, particularly Lepidopteran larvae like stem borers and fruit borers. It works by disrupting muscle function, leading to rapid feeding cessation and effective control.

• Thiamethoxam (Neonicotinoid Group): Provides systemic control of major sucking pests such as aphids, jassids, and whiteflies. It is absorbed by the plant and translocated through the vascular system, protecting it from the inside and controlling pests that feed on plant sap.

• Combined Benefit: The dual-action formula ensures that a single application can manage a mixed population of key pests, simplifying spray schedules and reducing labor costs.

Recommended Usage and Target Crops

VOLIAM FLEXI is recommended for foliar application in a variety of crops to manage economically significant pests. Its broad-spectrum activity makes it a versatile choice for protecting crop health and yield potential. Common application areas include:

• Rice: Stem Borer, Leaf Folder
