Protection in High-Def

Movento MPC and Movento^® both contain the same single active ingredient, spirotetramat, and share a similar name. However, Movento MPC has a different concentration of the active ingredient than Movento. // LEARN MORE 

Movento MPC is labeled for use in three states – Florida, Georgia and Alabama. Recently, the Movento MPC’s label was expanded from only citrus crops to include an additional 227 crops, encompassing all 251 crops on the Movento label. // READ THE ANNOUNCEMENT

Both Movento MPC and Movento require the use of a spray adjuvant having spreading and penetration properties.  // LEARN MORE ABOUT ADJUVANTS

Management of whitefly populations for tomato and pepper crops is critical for overall success. We recommend two preventative foliar applications, along with an appropriate adjuvant, three and five weeks after transplant.  Click the link below to read more about the threats of whiteflies and how Movento MPC helps with proactive management. // READ MORE

The active ingredient in Movento MPC, spirotetramat, has a unique mode of action classified as a Lipid Biosynthesis Inhibitor (LBI) that controls pests by moving with the sugars produced by the leaves to all parts of the plant, where it is consumed by the pests when they attempt to feed. Exposed immature pests are unable to continue to develop and exposed adult pests produce fewer young, thereby reducing the population and damage that occurs. Movento MPC is most effective when applied as a preventive or threshold treatment.

Movento MPC is labeled for multiple applications in several crops. When extended residual control is desired, two applications of Movento MPC on a block treatment schedule will provide residual control greater than two applications separated by another residual product. // LEARN MORE: PROACTIVE WHITEFLY MANAGEMENT 

The graph below illustrates the interaction of residual control and the number of applications.

In a block treatment schedule, a portion of the first application is used to overcome the pest for initial control and any concentration greater than this level within the plant results in residual control. When the second treatment in a block application occurs before the concentration drops below the level needed for pest control, all of the material from the second application adds to the residual control.

The extended control is a result of the increased concentration within the plant from the second application because the concentration needed to control the pest is already present.

Movento MPC is formulated as a suspension concentrate (SC) product. It requires the use of a spray adjuvant having spreading and penetration properties to facilitate maximum uptake of the product into the leaf surfaces. Avoid the use of stickers or products that contain stickers as they will reduce the penetration of Movento MPC into the leaves and reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.

The radiographs above illustrate the importance of adding an adjuvant with Movento MPC by showing the penetration into the lead and the systemic movement to other parts of this cabbage plant. // LEARN MORE
