      Valent U.S. recently announced that the insecticide NipsIt INSIDE (thiamethoxam) will be used as a seed treatment to control early‑season pests in cereal crops. This expanded application will allow growers in thirteen states, including Colorado, to treat seeds of millet, buckwheat, oats, rye, sorghum, wheat, and triticale with NipsIt INSIDE.

      Following a period of drought, the central United States is expected to see an increase in locust populations across its major grain-growing regions. Consequently, curbing their proliferation has become urgent to prevent disruption to normal plant growth.

      The expanded application of this product has effectively addressed this challenge for growers. NipsIt INSIDE features Lock Tight technology, which enhances the adhesion of active ingredients to seeds to ensure seamless protection, delivering robust, all‑round control of locusts, reducing crop losses, and minimizing damage to emerging seedlings. Additionally, when used in combination with NipsIt SUITE, NipsIt INSIDE provides comprehensive pest and disease management.

      Growers can sow seeds treated with NipsIt INSIDE along the perimeter of their fields, in a strip approximately 50–60 paces wide, which will largely keep locusts out of the fields.
