In 2006, Avicta™ Complete Pak was launched in cotton as the first seed treatment fungicide, insecticide and nematicide combination, that offered cotton growers a convenient and innovative management tool against early season diseases, insects and nematodes. AVICTA™ Complete Pak is a promotional combination of three separately registered products: AVICTA seed treatment nematicide, Cruiser® seed treatment insecticide and the seed treatment fungicide Dynasty CST®. AVICTA™, active ingredient abamectin, was registered on cotton in 2005 and is considered to be a potent and effective nematicide. Over the past several years, AVICTA™ Complete Pak has undergone extensive in-house and independent research comparing the seed treatment nematicide (AVICTA) to other seed treatment candidates and to the standard in-furrow treatment of aldicarb (TEMIK 15 G), on root-knot, reniform and Columbia lance nematodes. In trials conducted from 2000 to 2006 by university researchers and independent crop consultants, AVICTA™ Complete Pak was shown to produce yields equal to or greater than Temik® (5 lbs/A) 80 percent of the time.
