New potato insecticide and fungicide in the pipeline for British growers

Bayer CropScience will have two new products available for potato growers in two to three years' time, subject to approval.

Currently in the process of registration, the insecticide Movento (spirotetramat) and SDHI fungicide Luna (fluopyram) will offer UK potato growers different modes of action to incorporate into insect and blight control strategies, strengthening resistance management.
