Arysta LifeScience Japan Introduces BotaniGard® WP for IPM![qrcode]()
May. 11, 2012
Arysta LifeScience is pleased to introduce BotaniGard® WP (Beauveria bassiana strain GHA), a product of Laverlam International, Corp., for integrated pest management (IPM) in Japan.
Since 2002, the microbial insecticide BotaniGard® ES (Emulsifiable Suspension) has been promoted in the Japanese market by Arysta LifeScience to control thrips, whiteflies and Lepidoptera along with beneficial insects and mites (so called, “natural enemies”). Although effective against the target pests, some side effects were found to act against predatory mites such as Amblyseius swirskii. In response, Arysta LifeScience developed a new formulation of Beauveria bassiana. As a wettable powder, BotaniGard WP is much less harmful to predatory mites and is compatible with IPM programs in greenhouse vegetables such as strawberries, sweet peppers, eggplants and cucumbers.
