Summary of Tecnologia de aplicação para controle de Helicoverpa em soja

00:00:00 - 00:00:00

In the YouTube video "Tecnologia de aplicação para controle de Helicoverpa em soja" (Technology application for Helicoverpa control in soybean), researchers discuss the challenges of managing Helicoverpa migi , a soybean pest that is harder to control due to its specific ecology. Unlike other pests, Helicoverpa migi primarily attacks the middle and lower parts of soybean plants, making it necessary for farmers to apply pesticides to these areas. Researcher Fernando Adegas explains that farmers must adjust their application technology, such as increasing wetted areas and using smaller volumes, to effectively target the lower parts of the plant. While there are currently limited options for Helicoverpa migi control products, some are in the registration process, and each has a unique formula that will influence farmers' application technology adjustments. Farmers will need to receive and process necessary information to make the correct adjustments.

• 00:00:00 In this section of the YouTube video titled "Tecnologia de aplicação para controle de Helicoverpa em soja" (Technology application for Helicoverpa control in soybean), the discussion revolves around the challenges of controlling Helicoverpa migi, a type of soybean pest that is more difficult to manage than usual due to its specific ecology. Helicoverpa migi is not evenly distributed in soybean plants, as it mainly attacks the middle and lower parts of the plant. To effectively control this pest, farmers need to apply the product to the correct area of the plant, which can be more complex than traditional methods. Researcher Fernando Adegas, an expert in application technology, explains that farmers will need to adjust their application technology, such as increasing the wetted area and using smaller volumes of application, to effectively target the lower parts of the plant. The farmers will also need to receive and process the necessary information to make the correct adjustments. Although there are currently limited options for products to control Helicoverpa migi, there are some emergency releases from the Ministry of Agriculture and more are in the registration process. Each product has a unique formula, some being more systemic or contact-based, which will influence how farmers plan their application technology. Therefore, for each product, farmers will need to make slight adjustments to their application technology.
