Admiral 10EC is an innovative, selective insect growth regulator (IGR) developed by FMC to effectively control whitefly populations. It contains Pyriproxyfen 10EC, a pyridine-based pesticide that mimics juvenile hormones. This interference disrupts the reproduction and development of whiteflies, preventing larvae from maturing into adults and controlling their overall lifecycle.
Admiral is particularly suited for cotton crops, where whitefly infestations can cause significant damage. The product’s selective nature ensures minimal impact on beneficial insects, making it an ideal choice for integrated pest management programs.
