DiPel DF yielded more marketable nuts with fewer damaged nuts and was comparable to all other standard treatments. All treatments were applied twice on a 14-day interval. Source: Kayleigh Paskwietz, Terra Bella, CA
How To Use Rate
1–2 lb/A for Tree Nuts (Crop Group 14-12)
Timing
Apply when monitoring (via traps, field history, scouting) indicates that larvae are in the early instars of development. Apply 7 to 14 days before hull split and again at hull split before navel orangeworm larvae enter the nut.
Method
Ground or air
Spray Volume
Coverage is key to control. Use sufficient spray volume. For optimal results, use at least 20 gallons of water per acre for ground application; for aerial application, use at least 3 gallons of water per acre. Use a spreader-sticker for hard-to-wet crops or to improve weather-fastness
Adjuvant REI / PHI
4 hours / 0 days—no MRL restrictions
Other Important Information DiPel DF does not have ovicidal activity and applications must be timed when small larvae are developing. Larvae must be actively feeding on treated, exposed plant surfaces. Under heavy pest population pressure, use the higher label rates, shorten the spray interval, and/or raise spray volume to improve spray coverage
