The difference with Coragen
®
Most existing insecticides used in vegetable spraying programs work on the nervous system.
Unlike traditional insecticides,
Coragen® controls caterpillars
by acting on their muscle fibres.

Robust residual activity
When applied to the leaf surface, Coragen is
rapidly absorbed into the leaf tissue providing:
®
~a reservoir of active ingredient for residual
activity
~activity against caterpillars that feed on the
under sides of leaves.
T he rapid absorption into the crop enhances
rainfastness (rainfast in 2 hours).
xcellent residual control under all weather
E
conditions:
~unaffected by variations in field or spray

* Hover fly larvae are believed to be sensitive to Coragen®. Further studies are being conducted.
Excellent environmental profile due to:
~low acute and chronic toxicity to mammals, birds, fish, spiders, mites and most beneficial insects
~low toxicity to soil microbes and earthworms

Surfactant/wetting agents
D
O NOT use BS1000* or Activator as it may
cause crop phytotoxicity.
The addition of surfactant can:
~aid in coverage of leaves and fruit
~increase absorption
~decrease the rainfast period
~maximise efficacy
~improve residual activity
~increase crop protection.
F or Celery, Lettuce, Rhubarb and other leafy
vegetables, use a non-ionic surfactant/wetting
agent at 15 g active/100 L (e.g. Agral* @
25 mL/100 L).
Broccoli, Brussels sprout, Cabbage and
For
Cauliflower, use a non-ionic surfactant/wetting
agent at 75 g active/100 L (e.g. Agral* @
125 mL/100 L).
Spray coverage
Good
spray coverage is essential for effective
insect control and good crop protection
~apply DuPont™ Coragen® at optimum water
volume whilst minimising spray runoff
(see label for further details).
oragen® has good translaminar activity and
C
is rapidly absorbed into plant tissue
~unsprayed leaves and fruit will not be
protected.
Respray intervals
espray intervals are dependent on crop, crop
R
growth rate, target species, pest pressure and
environmental conditions.
T he minimum respray interval in vegetable crops
is 7 days (see label directions for specific pest
crop recommendations).
D
O NOT add a non-ionic surfactant/wetting
agent if:
~m
ixing with another product which
already contains a surfactant and/or
the product label advises not to add
a surfactant
~m
ixing with a liquid fertiliser.
Restraints
D
O NOT apply if rainfall is expected within 2 hours
of application.
D
O NOT apply when the wind speed is less than
3 km/hr or more than 20 km/hr, or during weather
conditions when surface temperature inversions
can develop.
D
O NOT use on container or hydroponic
grown crops.
Resistance management
G
ood resistance management practice, relating
to restricting the label maximum number of
applications and rotation to alternative mode of
action insecticides should be followed (see label
critical comments on resistance management
guidelines).
Withholding periods
P
otatoes – withholding period not required when

CRITICAL COMMENTS
CRITICAL COMMENTS - ALL CROPS
Regularly scout crops to monitor for eggs and larvae. Target sprays against eggs and newly hatched larvae before they become entrenched. Apply as
egg and larvae reach threshold numbers.
A maximum of three (3) applications are to be applied to any one crop. No more than two (2) consecutive sprays per crop, with a minimum spray interval
of 7 days (unless stated otherwise). Further treatments should be made with alternative mode of action insecticides.
Use enough water to ensure thorough coverage of the crop. Adjust water volumes to crop stage (200 – 1000 L/ha).
Refer to Surfactant/Wetting agent section.
Use in accordance with AIRAC Insecticide Resistance Management Strategy guidelines. As part of an Insecticide Resistance Management programme
for Cotton bollworm, it is important to plough crops immediately after harvest.
