ABSTRACT
Manufacturers of crop protection products continually seek improved materials for control of economic pests. Many manufacturers have explored biologically derived products for control of specific pests. Tracer is a new product of this type. The active ingredient in Tracer is a naturally derived fermentation product. This study is part of a series to optimize application parameters for this new class of compounds. Laboratory and field studies were conducted to determine the influence of two types of non-ionic spray adjuvants on the performance of Tracer. Our results do not demonstrate a significant benefit on spray deposition or efficacy from adding these spray adjuvants to spray mixes of Tracer for aerial application.
