To help Spanish-speaking growers select the most effective solutions for a variety of pest management challenges, BASF Turf & Ornamentals has posted a free Spanish version of its Pest Management Guide online.

The guide can be accessed at www.betterplants.com.

“As an innovative leader in the pest management industry, BASF is committed to helping growers make informed decisions about which products will best meet their needs,” says Toni Bucci, business manager at BASF. “This Spanish version of the guide helps Spanish-speaking growers use science more responsibly while yielding better plants.”

The guide addresses fungicides, herbicides and insecticides. Charts in each section include information on Fungicide Resistance action Committee (FRAC), Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) and Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) mode of action classifications for each product listed.

In addition, the charts provide a side-by-side overview of primary target pests, chemical group, active ingredients and trade names, as well as restricted entry interval and use sites for each product.
