Potato growers now have a convenient new tool to battle nematodes in-season with Averland FC (abamectin + Allosperse), which was registered by the EPA in 2019. Recently, Vive Crop Protection issued a label recommendation (2ee) for protection from nematodes in potatoes by chemigation.
Averland FC mixes seamlessly with in-season fertility to help create on-farm efficiency, according to Vive, in addition to significantly reducing user and environmental exposure.
As a foliar or chemigation application, Averland FC also takes care of Colorado potato beetle, leafminers, psyllids, mites and thrips. It is based on the Allosperse Delivery System, designed to allow products to be mixed and applied with foliar fertilizer.
