Besiege by Syngenta Crop Protection, LLC has a new supplemental label that includes soybean. It is a RESTRICTED USE insecticide that contains 0.835 lb ai/gallon of the pyrethroid lambda-cyhalothrin (Karate) and 0.417 lb ai/gallon of the anthranilic diamide chlorantraniliprole (Coragen). This will be a good fit for soybean as the combined activities of the two active ingredients will provide control of a broad spectrum of pests. Many insect pests are on the label. For the most commonly encountered pests in Virginia, rates for corn earworm, bean leaf beetle and threecornered alfalfa hopper are 5 – 8 oz/acre; 8 – 10 oz/acre for stink bugs and grasshoppers, and 10 oz/acre for soybean looper and beet armyworm. Before use, be sure to check the label for use restrictions.
