Canada approval for Dupont's insecticide seed treatment lumiderm

The Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) in Canada has granted approval for registration of DuPont Lumiderm (cyantraniliprole) insecticide seed treatment.

DuPont Lumiderm insecticide is a new seed treatment product for canola growers. Lumiderm contains the active ingredient cyantraniliprole, a novel Group 28, anthranilic diamide insecticide that provides superior control of early season flea beetles (striped and crucifer) and cutworms.

Lumiderm has excellent seed safety and is a strong tool for Integrated Pest Management programs. Due to its unique new mode of action, Lumiderm gets canola seedlings off to a strong start and creates an opportunity for improved yield by providing powerful residual control throughout the early critical stages of seedling growth.
