As temperatures continue to trend above average, we can look for a corresponding increase in insect activity this summer. And like a fast green on a hot afternoon, that "pest pressure" can come on with some serious speed.


Controlling pests like aphids, whitefly, diamondback moth, and thrips will be top of mind for growers and farmers this summer. These insects thrive in the heat as their lifecycles are positively influenced by the rising mercury. Lifting your insecticide game is critical and that means choosing the right adjuvant to ensure your spray goes the distance.



Make Kantor your #1

If Kantor was a golf club, it would be the big dog in your bag. Kantor drives the full potential of your insecticide by smoothing out the "pressure points" of your entire spraying operation with a single application use rate of 150ml per 100 litres of water.


Hit the pH ‘sweet spot’

From the moment you fill the tank, Kantor goes to work like a pro, buffering the spray water to pH 6–7, which is the "sweet spot" and the most stable pH for the majority of crop protection products.



Complex tank mixes? Done in one.

Because you don’t want to carry out more spray passes than necessary, Kantor provides the flexibility to partner other products with your insecticide of choice. Tank mix incompatibility can be due to anything from water that’s too cold or poor quality, having too many products in the tank, incompatible formulation types or spray applications carried out in low water volumes. Kantor gets you back on the fairway with unique adjuvant properties that promote better emulsification, enabling complex mixes to work together in a single pass.


On-Target Accuracy

Timely and on-target application can be the difference between a birdie and a bogey for your crop as spray drift and wet conditions take the edge off your game. Kantor effectively maximizes your "spray window" by delivering:








  • Drift reduction to keep your spray on the fairway.

  • Effective droplet deposition and spreading characteristics.

  • Unique penetrating power to ensure rapid uptake into plants for systemic or translaminar products.


This ensures your active ingredient gets to work faster for a more effective performance, securing your lead against pests.

 

Pro tips for perfect spray rounds.

  •  Apply Kantor at a rate of 0.15% (150 ml per 100 litres of water).

  • Always add Kantor to the spray tank before adding crop protection products or foliar fertilisers.

  • Kantor can be used with insecticides, fungicides, post-emergent herbicides, plant growth regulators and foliar nutrition.
