AgBiTech Surtivo - Mixture of Nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPV)-Based Biological Insecticide
Surtivo® is a mixture of nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPV)-based biological insecticide designed to selectively control corn earworm (Helicoverpa zea), tobacco budworm (Heliothis virescens) and Soybean Loopers (Chrysodeixis includens). Surtivo® offers significant advantages over synthetic chemicals. Surtivo® is a valuable tool in the fight against Corn Earworm and Soybean Loopers.
Economical Application at First Appearance
This reduces yield-limiting damage and helps manage populations throughout the season versus using a reactive, rescue approach.
Completely Safe to the Environment and Applicators
Surtivo® is an OMRl-certified organic insecticide. It is highly selective, thus allowing valuable beneficial arthropods to build up on the crop and work to suppress secondary insect infestations, such as sugar cane aphids.
Unique Mode of Action (IRAC Group 31)
This makes Surtivo® the perfect tank-mix or standalone application on soybean farms to control populations resistant to chemical insecticides. There are no known cases of resistance to NPV-based insecticides anywhere in the world.
