Description

Marine is a highly effective, versatile insecticide formulated with the active ingredient Clothianidin. Designed for efficiency, it has the capability to control multiple crop pests in a single spray application. With the flexibility to be applied to plant leaves, soil, or seeds, Marine provides comprehensive protection against a wide range of damaging insects.

Key Features & Benefits

• Multi-Pest Control: Effectively controls both sucking and chewing insects, including aphids, thrips, and beetles, with one application.

• Versatile Application: Can be applied through multiple methods—foliar spray, soil drench, or seed treatment—offering flexibility for different cropping systems.

• Powerful Active Ingredient: Formulated with Clothianidin, a proven neonicotinoid insecticide whose use has increased dramatically worldwide over the last decade due to its efficacy.

• Single-Spray Efficiency: Reduces the need for multiple products by targeting several pest types in one go, saving time and labor.

Mode of Action

Marine contains Clothianidin, a systemic insecticide from the neonicotinoid class. It works by interfering with the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect's nervous system. This disruption causes overstimulation of nerve cells, leading to paralysis and eventual death of the target pest. Its systemic nature allows it to be absorbed and translocated throughout the plant, providing lasting protection.
