Alta Defensivos launches Vilora acaricide in Brazil

Date:11-21-2024

Constantly evolving and understanding the needs of rural producers, Alta Defensivos has just launched Vilora acaricide for the Brazilian market. 

Vilora is a long-residual product specially developed to effectively control pests in essential crops such as coffee and citrus.

The product can control mites such as leprosy mites and red mites in coffee, leprosy mite, false rust mites, red mites, purple mites, and white mites in citrus, and coconut necrosis mites in coconut.

According to Agronomist Thiago Duarte Branco, responsible for the Alta Defensivos portfolio, the development team faced the challenge of creating a practical and cost-effective solution to meet the needs of farmers and contribute to more profitable production. In addition, the team focused on formulating a product that is selective for natural enemies, ensuring efficient control of mites in the registered crops without compromising the ecological balance. ″The choice of the active ingredient spirodiclofen, recognized for its effectiveness in controlling several species of mites, was essential to ensure the efficiency of the product,″ he commented.

These guidelines for the development of Vilora resulted in an acaricide that effectively controls pests and promotes sustainability and profitability in agricultural production.
