Curacron (profenofos) has been used successfully in cotton for many years to control a variety of pests both alone and in tank-mix combinations. Curacron's strength is in its broadspectrum control and its ability to handle tough pests such as Heliothis, Armyworm, Aphid and Lygus. In a rapidly changing market with new products and technology, growers will have more tools available however the new tools are not always the most economical and are typically more pest specific. Curacron used as the foundation insecticide in a prescription program of tank-mixtures throughout the season with new and existing chemistry is a very cost effective way to manage most pest situations while in many cases still preserving beneficial insect populations.
