Product Overview

NATVOL is a broad-spectrum insecticide that effectively controls a wide range of chewing and sucking pests in various crops, including vegetables, fruits, oilseeds, and ornamentals. It contains a unique combination of two active ingredients: chlorantraniliprole (8.8%) and thiamethoxam (17.5%). Chlorantraniliprole is a novel anthranilic diamide insecticide that disrupts the ryanodine receptor (RyR) in insect muscles, leading to uncontrolled muscle contractions, paralysis, and death. Thiamethoxam is a neonicotinoid insecticide that acts as a systemic insecticide, disrupting the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) in the insect's nervous system, leading to paralysis and death.

Key Features

• Broad-spectrum insecticide
• Effective against a wide range of chewing and sucking pests
• Dual-action mode of action provides long-lasting control
• Systemic and contact action
• Safe for use on a variety of crops

Mode of Action

NATVOL acts as a stomach, contact, and systemic insecticide. Chlorantraniliprole is ingested by or comes into contact with the insect's body and disrupts the ryanodine receptor (RyR) in insect muscles. The RyR is a protein channel that regulates the release of calcium ions, which are essential for muscle contraction. Disruption of the RyR leads to uncontrolled muscle contractions, paralysis, and eventually death of the insect. Thiamethoxam is absorbed by the plant's roots and foliage and moves throughout the plant, reaching the feeding sites of the target pests. It acts as a systemic insecticide, disrupting the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) in the insect's nervous system, leading to paralysis and death.

Application Rates

The recommended application rate of NATVOL varies depending on the specific target pest, crop, and environmental conditions. It is essential to consult the product label for precise application rates tailored to each scenario.

Application Methods

NATVOL can be applied using various methods, including foliar spray, chemigation, and direct injection. The choice of application method depends on the target pest, crop, and grower's preference. Refer to the product label for specific application instructions for each method.

Restrictions

As with any insecticide, there are certain restrictions to consider when using NATVOL:

• Avoid applying NATVOL to crops under stress from drought, heat, or other environmental conditions.
• Maintain a minimum interval of 7-10 days between NATVOL application and other pesticide applications.
• Do not apply NATVOL to crops that are flowering or intended for human or animal consumption within the specified pre-harvest interval (PHI).
• Avoid using NATVOL in areas with sandy soils or high groundwater levels, as it may leach into water sources.

Storage and Disposal

Proper storage and disposal of NATVOL are crucial to ensure its effectiveness and safety:

• Store NATVOL in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture.
• Dispose of unused NATVOL and empty containers according to local regulations, avoiding contamination of water sources or the environment.

Safety Precautions

When handling and applying NATVOL, it is essential to prioritize safety:

• Wear personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, goggles, and a respirator, to minimize exposure to the product.
• Avoid direct contact of NATVOL with skin, eyes, or clothing.
• Handle NATVOL away from food and drink.
• Keep NATVOL out of reach of children and pets.
• Do not apply NATVOL in windy conditions to prevent drift onto non-target areas.
