Coragen® MaX insecticide is the new highly concentrated formulation of Coragen insecticide, a leading, high-performing pest control solution in Eastern Canada. The new concentrated formulation comes in a 2 L jug that treats 60 acres at the most common western bean cutworm application rate, making handling, transport, and storage easier.
“The new application rate will be a bonus for retailers and growers alike,” says Frances Boddy, insecticide product manager at FMC. “Lower volumes, smaller warehouse footprint, less plastic and less packaging to handle means added efficiencies to their operations.”
Coragen MaX insecticide is powered by Rynaxypyr® active. The active ingredient comes from a novel group of chemistry with no known cross resistance to other insecticides. It delivers fast-acting and residual control of key pests in corn, potato and many vegetable crops, with minimal impact on many important beneficial insects and pollinators*.
“Coragen MaX insecticide is a great solution for Eastern Canadian growers facing quality and yield loss due to feeding damage from western bean cutworm, Colorado potato beetle, European corn borer, armyworms, imported cabbage worm, diamondback moth, and so many more,” says Boddy. “It delivers up to 21 days of extended control** and excellent tank-mixability. Plus, it gives growers the ability to apply any time, including hot days or cold nights. Essentially, Coragen MaX insecticide provides all of the benefits that growers have come to rely on from Coragen insecticide, with improved sustainability.”

*When applied at label rates. In line with Integrated Pest Management and Good Agricultural Practices, insecticide applications should be made when pollinators are not foraging to avoid unnecessary exposure.
