Belay is a third-generation neonicotinoid, proven to control a broad spectrum of tough pests, including aphids, plant bugs and stinkbugs.

The insecticide provides farmers highly systemic chemistry that quickly translocates through the plant. Trevor Dale, field market development specialist for Valent, says this means farmers can consistently expect longer control with Belay.

Belay offers a novel mode of action that farmers can incorporate into their resistance management programs against tough cotton and soybean pests, including the redbanded stinkbug, plant bugs and aphids. Scott Stewart, University of Tennessee professor and cotton Integrated Pest Management (IPM) specialist, says Belay showed control of both primary and secondary pest populations.
