Two new insecticides: Belay and Inovate
Valent U.S.A. Corporation has recently registered two new products for pest control in soybean and cotton in Virginia. Belay , has the neonicotinoid, clothianidin, as the active ingredient and is labeled for foliar applications to control aphids, plant bugs and stink bugs in cotton at 3  4 oz per acre, and is labeled for control of aphids, bean leaf beetles, Japanese beetles, leafhoppers, plant bugs, stink bugs and three-cornered alfalfa hoppers in soybean at 3  4 oz per acre. INOVATE, a combination of clothianidin and the fungicide, RANCONA (metalaxyl + ipconazole), is now labeled as a seed treatment for soybean to control early season insect pests and seedling disease. Belay has performed well in our cotton and soybean stink bug research trials. We have not evaluted INOVATE, but will be this coming field season. Contact us if you have any questions regarding these new options.
