Armyworm damage to seeds and seedlings is one of the most significant yield-impacting problems wheat farmers face each year. Armyworms are quick-moving pests, tackling vast areas in large numbers. A single armyworm can stunt or even kill up to 80 plants. Catching these yield-robbing pests early can pay dividends come harvest.

Lumivia^® CPL insecticide seed treatment is a new mode of action that raises the industry standard for the protection of wheat against yield-robbing pests. This is the first and only seed applied technology for wheat that protects against armyworm, cutworm, wireworm, and more. By impairing insect muscle function, the insecticide seed treatment effectively stops feeding almost immediately. Lumivia^® CPL provides growers with improved plant stand, reduced leaf feeding and higher yield potential.

KEY BENEFITS:

When used according to the label, Lumivia^® CPL has minimal impact on the environment, beneficial insects and pollinators. High specificity to target sites in pest species results in low to no impact on non-target beneficial insects, including parasitoids, parasites and pollinators.

The impressive selectivity, combined with robust pest control and excellent environmental profile, establishes Lumivia^® CPL as a sound tool for Integrated Pest Management and complimentary partner or alternative to neonicotinoid insecticides.

Protection That Offers Peace of Mind
By protecting vulnerable seeds and seedlings during critical early development, Lumivia^® CPL insecticide seed treatment provides better stand establishment and helps to reduce the risk of yield-limiting factors. By protecting yield potential, you will benefit from not only peace of mind, but a greater return on investment.
