    World Agrochemical Network Chinese reported: BASF launched the pesticide Pirate during the 26th Agrodinámica Expo in Paraguay from November 29 to December 2
    .
     
    In Paraguay, soybean and maize crops are exposed to a large number of pests throughout their growth cycle, including leaf-eating caterpillars, which appear at all reproductive stages of the crop from the first instar to the last, and flies, mites and thrips that are ready to attack
    .
    Different tools have been developed to combat the damage caused by these pests, such as innovative biotechnology, insecticides, etc
    .
     
    Pirate is a single-action insecticide with chlorfennirpyrrill, the only pyrrole active ingredient on the market that effectively controls caterpillar, mite and thrips pests
    on different crops such as soybeans, corn, cotton and vegetables.
     
    Due to its new mode of action, Pirate is cross-resistant and offers a broad and long-lasting control effect
    .
    Pirate works through contact and ingestion, is resistant to rain, and has cross-layer movement, making it a key product
    for controlling serious pest infestation.
     
    BASF said it plans to add "new tools" to its broad portfolio of agricultural solutions to continue helping farmers make decisions and address the day-to-day challenges
    facing agriculture.
     
    During the exhibition, BASF's booth was themed "Connecting the Land", offering information, services, personalized advice and solutions to tackle pests, diseases and weeds affecting crops in Paraguay
    .
    According to BASF, Connect the Land is a movement that puts farmers first, identifies the challenges they face, and actively connects
    their work with everyday life and with those who play a role in the field, such as companies, communities with close relationships with farmers and the urban public.
