Product information
Gaucho 600 FS is an approved systemic insecticide used for the treatment of corn seeds, sunflowers, and cereals.
Treated plants: Corn, Sunflower, Wheat, Autumn barley.
Mode of action: Gaucho 600 FS has a long-lasting systemic action in seeds and plants. After sowing, the product forms a protective halo around the seed, acting by contact on soil pests. The insecticide is absorbed through the root and distributed systematically throughout the plant, acting by ingestion on pests that attack the plants in the early stages of vegetation. In addition to the broad spectrum of control and exceptional effectiveness, Gaucho 600 FS has a stimulating action, giving increased vigor to plants after sunrise.
How to use: Gaucho 600 FS will be used only for the treatment of seeds of high biological value, with quality indices specific to the variety or hybrid from which they come. It is preferred to use batch treatment machines, which ensure a precise dosing and a uniform distribution of the product on the grain surface. The total quantity of solution is 8-15 l / ton of seeds, depending on the type of machine to be treated, the quality parameters of the seeds, the addition of possible adjuvants in the solution.
When preparing the mixture, first put water in the premier, any adjuvant-coloring products, and then add Gaucho 600 FS in the desired dose, after which the solution is stirred before starting the treatment. Prepare only the amount of solution needed for the amount of seed to be treated in a working day. When preparing the solution, the bottles with Gaucho 600 FS are shaken before emptying into the premix of the installation.
At approved doses, Gaucho 600 FS does not affect germination energy or seed germination and is not phytotoxic to plants. In the case of treating the parental forms of maize and sunflower hybrids, it is necessary to test in advance the effect of the product on germination energy and seed germination, because these forms are generally more sensitive to seed treatment compared to commercial hybrids.
It is recommended that sowing equipment equipped with deflector systems be used when sowing corn and sunflower seeds treated with Gaucho 600 FS. They direct the airflow from the seed drill directly to the ground or the ground at low pressure, helping to protect the environment.
