Bayer Expected to Receive CA Registration for New Nematicide
USAgNet - 10/20/2016

Bayer anticipates the California registration of Velum One for use in the 2017 growing season. Velum One, a nematicide with fungicidal activity, is expected to be registered for use on almonds, tomatoes, strawberries, brassicas and cucurbits. The product will manage a wide spectrum of yield-robbing nematodes and brings wide spectrum, long-lasting nematode control to California growers.

"During trials, early season application has been shown to protect root heath and get plants off to a great start," said Joel Lipsitch, product manager for Bayer. "With Velum One, we will not only protect crops early in the season, but more importantly, we will give growers confidence that they're using the right tools for the best return on their investment."

Velum One contains a unique blend of active ingredients that work together to combat nematodes and damaging diseases. It moves from roots to leaves, not only suppressing nematodes below ground but also throughout the plant to suppress key diseases and help maximize yield potential.

Once registered, Velum One can be applied through drip/micro chemigation, and the wide-spectrum nematicidal activity can significantly enhance existing nematode management programs. It immobilizes nematodes within one to two hours after contact and effectively suppresses early season diseases such as powdery mildew.

Velum One is not currently registered for sale or use in California.
