Coragen® MaX insecticide / West

Coragen MaX insecticide is an innovative product providing broad spectrum, extended control of many pests, including cutworm, bertha armyworm, grasshoppers and diamondback moths. These and other pests are controlled through a novel mode of action – the activation of insect ryanodine receptors (RyRs) – that attacks muscle function and stops insects from feeding in as little as seven minutes.

Coragen MaX insecticide can be used on a wide variety of crops, has a short (12 hour) re-entry period, plus minimal impact on many important pollinators and beneficials*. It's also very tank stable, mixable, and can be applied in a wide range of temperatures (between 4°C and 40°C).

Coragen MaX insecticide works differently than other insecticides and this should be kept in mind when scouting for control symptoms. Feeding stops in as little as 7 minutes, and the insect will become lethargic and immobile. Death might take several days depending on the insect. That’s why you might find living insects when scouting, but rest assured, as they can’t eat, they no longer pose a risk to your crop.

Its effective control, coupled with a unique environmental and toxicological profile and new more concentrated formulation, makes Coragen MaX insecticide a sound crop protection choice.

Coragen MaX insecticide provides all of the benefits that the industry has come to rely on from Coragen insecticide, with improved sustainability. The lower volumes, smaller warehouse footprint, less plastic and less packaging to handle means added efficiencies to farmers and retailers alike.
