Targeted Pest Management:The product manager for Dow AgroSciences' Closer insecticide talks about emerging trends in insect control

摘要

Earlier this year, Dow AgroSciences announced the federal registration of Closer SC (sulfoxaflor) insecticide (California registration is expected in 2015). The product is designed to offer targeted control of sap-feeding insects in the tree fruit, citrus, vegetable, and tree nut markets. American Fruit Grower recently caught up with Pedro Carlucci, product manager for Closer, and asked him about trends in insect control, and what growers may need to know about using Closer.
