Protegea® Sugarix

Plant elicitor with activity against difficult pests

Basic substance based on naturally derived sucrose that stimulates plant defenses against challenging pests such as codling moth, grapevine leafhoppers and European corn borer. It has no pre-harvest interval and is safe for beneficial insects.

MODE OF ACTION

Sugarix acts as a plant elicitor, stimulating natural defense mechanisms against specific pests. Its activity is not based on direct toxicity but on preparing the crop to respond more effectively to attacks from codling moth, leafhoppers and corn borers. It is applied as a foliar spray, preferably during periods of low solar radiation, with intervals adjusted according to crop and pest pressure.
