Carbine™ insecticide cotton

A new way to maximize your yields.
 
Carbine™ insecticide is the new, uniquely effective crop protection product that specifically targets troublesome insects infesting cotton -- plant bugs, cotton aphids and cotton fleahoppers -- while being virtually non-toxic to beneficial insects and mites.

Carbine is a new class of chemistry with a new, unique mode of action -- A-Type Potassium Channel Active.

It stops piercing and sucking pests from feeding within one hour of exposure. The reduction in feeding leads to greater square retention and thus higher yields.

Carbine allows for both a reduction in overall insecticide use and increased yields.

Given its outstanding efficacy on key cotton pests, and being practically non-disruptive to biological control, it is considered the perfect partner in Integrated Pest Management programs.

Carbine active ingredient has been shown to be different from any other major class of insecticides.  Symptoms on targeted pests are also different than those caused by other insecticides.  Carbine is a key component of Insect Resistance Management programs.

When applying Carbine on cotton, please refer to the product label for specific use instructions.

 
Carbine controls:
Pest Rate (oz/A)
Tarnished plant bug  
Western plant bug 1.7 – 2.8
Cotton fleahopper  
Aphids 1.4 – 2.8


Mixing and Application: Apply 1.4 – 2.8 lb. per acre depending on targeted insect pest and population stage. Begin applications as populations reach economic thresholds according to local economic guidelines.  The low rate can be used early season for low pest densities or when tank mixing with other products registered for target insect control.  Use the high rate for higher pest populations, dense foliage, and longer residual.  Rapidly growing cotton may need retreatment.

Carbine may be tank mixed with products approved for use on cotton.  Carbine is generally compatible with other insecticides, fungicides, fertilizers and micronutrient products provided sufficient free water is available for dispersion of all the tank-mix products.  However, the physical compatibility of Flonicamid 50WG with tank-mix partners should be evaluated using a jar test before use.  Read and follow all manufacturers’ label recommendations for the companion product.

Available In: 4 x 3.5 lb. jug packaging.  One jug will treat 20 acres at 2.8 ounces per acre.
