Oberon has a high level of long-lasting efficacy. Yet, with its excellent environmental profile and friendliness to Beneficial’s and pollinators, Oberon fits with IPM programs.
Excellent efficacy against eggs and larvae of the whitefly. Adult female whitefly shows a significant decrease in fertility and in the number of eggs laid.
