Help Stop Soybean Pests with Elevest® Insect Control

When yield-robbing soybean pests arrive, growers need an insecticide that delivers both rapid knockdown and long-lasting residual control. Elevest® insect control utilizes two modes of action – Rynaxypyr® active and bifenthrin – to meet the diverse field needs of growers and protect soybeans from damaging insect pressure.

Rynaxypyr® targets insects' calcium channels through ingestion, while bifenthrin targets sodium channels upon contact. Together, these two modes of action disrupt muscle and nervous control, causing pests to stop feeding until paralysis and death occur.

With an expertly calibrated ratio of active ingredients, Elevest® delivers consistent insect control while giving growers application flexibility. It can be applied by air, ground or chemigation and is compatible with liquid fertilizers and many crop protection products.

Applied during the reproductive growth stage, Elevest® helps protect developing pods from destructive insects such as soybean podworms, armyworms, stink bugs, soybean loopers, Japanese beetles, grasshoppers and more. Because many of these insects feed directly on developing pods and seeds, protecting soybeans during reproductive growth is critical to preserve yield potential.

With long-lasting residual control, Elevest® helps growers manage damaging insect pressure, protect yield potential and maintain crop quality through harvest.
