Hekvidor 600 FS

An insecticide used for seed treatment in sugar beet, corn and potato.

Corn: Required amount of pesticide for 100 kg seeds is mixed well with 1 liter water; half of it is mixed with the seeds laid on a nylon sheet placed on a flat surface; then the other half is added and mixed well again. The same procedure applies for pesticide barrels. After treatment, seeds are spread out and aerated. They mat be sown immediately after moisture is reduced or stored until sowing time. Seed vigor is reduced if stored with moisture.

Potato: Seed potatoes are spread out on a flat and hard surface. The amount of pesticide recommended for 100 kg seeds is added to 1-1.5 l water in a bucket, mixed well and transferred to the sprayer. Half of this mixture is sprayed onto seed potatoes and a shovel is used to turn them upside down. The other half of the mixture is sprayed and the procedure is completed. Care should be exercised to ensure that the amount of water is enough to soak the seeds but does not drip away. Sowing is possible right after treatment or the seeds can be bagged after moisture dries or wait a few days in bulk state. Rubber gloves should be worn during treatment, bagging and sewing.

Sugar beet: Due to the sensitivity of sugar beet seeds against moisture and in order to achieve precise treatment, seed processing and treatment factories have professional treatment equipment, where the volume of pesticide mixture to be applied depends on type of equipment, other substances used in mixture and drying facilities. Therefore, instructions for the current seed treatment equipment should be followed.

Compatibility: A trial mix is recommended before large-volume mix preparation.
