China approved 68 chlorantraniliprole registrations, being mostly mixtures with clothianidin

Chlorantraniliprole is a novel anthranilic diamide systemic insecticide with a broad insecticidal spectrum, applicable to a large variety of crops. 

The product is long-lasting, with high activity, low toxicity, and good biosafety, without cross resistance with mainstream insecticides available on the market. It is compatible with major insecticides, having attracted a high degree of attention from industry players at home and abroad. 

Chlorantraniliprole’s patent expired on August 13, 2022, and several registrations are foreseen.
