Please pay attention to the use of Organosilicone Super-Spreader PASS with Emamectin Benzoate to control fall armyworm (Laphygma frugiperda) in corn fields.

Larvae cause damage by consuming foliage. Young larvae initially consume leaf tissue from one side, leaving the opposite epidermal layer intact. By the second or third instar, larvae begin to make holes in leaves, and eat from the edge of the leaves inward. Feeding in the whorl of corn often produces a characteristic row of perforations in the leaves. Larvae also will burrow into the growing point (bud, whorl, etc.), destroying the growth potential of plants, or clipping the leaves. In corn, they sometimes burrow into the ear, feeding on kernels in the same manner as corn earworm, Helicoverpa zea. 

Application: In 15L sprayer, add Emamectin Benzoate 5% EC 10mL and PASS 5mL  Spray in the late afternoon, so the larvae are more likely to be poisoned when they come out to feed at night Benefits of PASS: total wetting of the leaves surface get into hard-to-reach places speed up the insecticidal effect You can get better control agsainst Laphygma frugiperda with the application of PASS!
