Description
Emamectin benzoate is a white or light yellow crystalline powder, which is improved and upgraded from abamectin, but has higher insecticidal activity than abamectin , It has the advantages of super high efficiency, low toxicity (nearly non-toxic preparation), low residue, no pollution and other biological pesticides.
Chemical Properties
As a new type of antibiotic bio-sourced insecticide, emamectin benzoate has the advantages of broad-spectrum, high efficiency, low toxicity and low residue. It has a good insecticidal effect on lepidopteran pests. The LC90 value range is 0.002~0.89 mg/L. Compared with its lead compound, abamectin, emamectin salt has lower toxicity, and its toxicity to rats is only 1/6 of that of abamectin. It is safe for humans, animals, etc., and is easily degraded at conventional doses.
Application
Emamectin benzoate/avermectin is often used to control vegetable pests, such as diamondback moth, beet armyworm, and Spodoptera litura. Because of its good control effect, it has been widely used in the prevention and control of cruciferous vegetable pests and effectively controls the lepidopteran The scale of occurrence of the population of insect pests has delayed the evolution of resistance to traditional insecticides.
