Bayer Almond Portfolio
Eliminate Nematode Problems Early
Yield potential starts with healthy roots. That’s where Velum® One and Movento® come in as post-plant applications for established almond orchards. They protect trees from nematodes, scale, mite suppression, and other sucking insects during maturing nut and hull split.
Catching pest problems early at this stage is essential to controlling infestation. Proactively spraying with Velum One and Movento gets your almonds closer to the finish line—and to seeing more potential late in the season.
Hear California PCAs and growers talk about the challenges they face with nematode control in existing orchards.

Get Residual Control that Goes the Distance
Alion almond herbicide is foundational for permanent crops. As an almond herbicide, it offers unequaled long residual and pre-emergent control of grasses and broadleaf weeds that reduces competition to improve plant vigor. Additionally, it allows for improved water and nutrient uptake from clean orchards and grove floors.
Alion provides pre-emergent control of grass and broadleaf weeds that lasts up to 6 months. Its unique chemistry controls resistant weeds, including ALS-, ACC-asa-, triazine- and glyphosate-resistant species.
Get to the Root of the Solution
Young trees develop root systems during their early, nonbearing years. Parasitic nematodes can rob them of their future potential. Movento and Velum One fend off nematodes, which is crucial as nematodes can re-infest soil just 2-3 years after fumigation.
At this stage, weed control is also important. Alion helps provide clean orchard floors, giving young almond trees every chance to reach their full potential.
Increase the Size & Strength of Young Almond Trees
Efficient and effective treatment against parasites makes for stronger trees. Their roots are better protected which increases yield and quality.
Studies conducted in 2017 by the UCCE showed that young almond trees treated with a combination of Velum One and Movento outgrew untreated populations.
More specifically, trees treated with Velum One show 58% increase* in canopy diameter (green canopy pixels). These trees were planted in January of 2017 and treated in the Spring of 2017 with Velum One applied at 6.5 oz/A, via drip irrigation.
Timing is everything when it comes to fighting crop threats. Maximize the health of your orchards with well-rounded, systemic protection throughout the season.
FULL SEASON POTENTIAL REQUIRES LATE SEASON PROTECTION.
