Description

Method for controlling insects
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a method for controlling insects. The invention also relates to a synergistic insecticidal combination for controlling insects and to a composition comprising said combination.
Background
Methods of controlling or eradicating insect pests are desirable in many instances, particularly when the agent is of commercial interest. Insects are very damaging to crops and can cause serious damage and yield loss.
Stinkbugs are the most common insect pests that can cause serious damage to vegetables, nuts and commodity crops such as soybeans, corn and cotton. They are often difficult to control and their population may exceed damage thresholds. There are many kinds of bugs, which all have a shield-shaped body and most produce a strong and unpleasant smell when handled.
Brown stinkbug (stinkbug) belongs to a new tropical species, widely distributed throughout south america, which can cause serious damage to a variety of host plants such as soybean, beans, cotton, sunflower, and other plant species.
Brown bugs are widely prevalent and distributed in brazil, ranging from north eastern (west of bayia) to south areas, including the southern lyocell states, and are also particularly relevant in yerba. Due to their high population density and high number of generations per year (4), multiple chemical control sprays are required per growing season.
Brown bugs are often difficult to control and their population can exceed damage thresholds by sucking up different parts of the host plant (e.g. the pods of soybeans). Because of the limited number of registered effective modes of action (active ingredient chemical groups/subgroups) for controlling such target insects, and because of the ability of brown bugs to develop resistance to multiple active ingredients, control of brown bugs populations has become an important issue for soybean and cotton growers. The increasing number of drug resistance cases of different active ingredient groups, such as organophosphates (IRAC 1B), cyclodienic organochlorine (IRAC 2A), synthetic pyrethroids (IRAC 3A) and neonicotinoids (IRAC 4), are reported and there is an urgent need in the art for a new method of controlling such pests.
There are many pesticides and compositions available on the market for these purposes. Systemic insecticides are insecticides that are specific to insects. Some of the most commonly used systemic insecticides are neonicotinoid insecticides. The combination of pesticides is used for widening the control range, reducing the application frequency and reducing the dosage, thereby reducing the influence on the environment and reducing the probability of drug resistance.
The active ingredient groups of pesticides commonly used for controlling brown bugs include pyrethroid-neonicotinoid mixtures and organophosphates. However, in all registered chemicals, the problem of pesticide resistance is growing. Given the limited number of effective pesticides with different modes of action (moas) against brown bugs, there is still a need to find new methods of controlling these insect populations.
Furthermore, the physicochemical stability of agrochemical compositions is the most alarming problem in formulation. The selection of the appropriate surfactant is critical to achieving a physically and chemically stable formulation with the proper shelf life. Therefore, it is highly desirable to develop a formulation which is stable over a long period of time, does not deteriorate under severe storage conditions, is less phytotoxic to plants, and is more environmentally friendly than conventional formulations.
Thus, there remains a need in the art to control primarily insect infestation at a locus, which is an unmet need in the art. There is also a need for stable formulations as pest control agents that provide knockdown activity with long term control, i.e., fast action and long acting. Stinkbug on soybeans is the main pest of Brazilian soybean crops and is a big problem for growers. The present invention addresses this problem and other needs in the art.

It should be noted that the following appended examples illustrate rather than limit the invention, and that those skilled in the art will be able to design many alternative examples without departing from the scope of the invention.
Examples
Example 1
Suspension concentrate formulations
The process comprises the following steps: in a vessel, a calculated amount of excipient is added to the water, and then a calculated amount of active ingredient (bifenthrin and ethiprole) is added to the mixture with vigorous stirring. The premix slurry was stirred for 30 minutes. The slurry is subjected to a grinding treatment in a grinder, and then if necessary, other excipients are added and stirred for 40 to 45 minutes for proper homogenization, thereby obtaining a desired formulation.
Example 2
Bioefficacy data for compositions of this invention comprising ethiprole and bifenthrin:
field trials were conducted to investigate the control effect of the combination of ethiprole and bifenthrin on stink bugs. This study was performed on soybean plants. After application, the plants were re-infested with 10 adult stage stinkbugs (brown stinkbugs). Control (%) of brown bugs on days 1, 3, 7 and 10 after infestation was recorded. Efficacy results of the tests are shown in the following table.
TABLE 1
TABLE 2
The insect control obtained from the application of 50g/ha ethiprole plus 20g/ha bifenthrin was significantly higher than that obtained with 20g/ha bifenthrin alone. Tables 1 and 2 above show the results.
The percent control observed with the combination of ethiprole and bifenthrin has a synergistic effect. Preferably, the combined suspension concentrate formulation of the present invention provides excellent control of soybean bugs (brown bugs) 1 day and 3 days after application.
Example 3
Efficacy test data:
the efficacy of the composition of the invention comprising ethiprole and bifenthrin against brown stink Euschistus hereos was evaluated. The spray amount was 150L/ha. The results of the percentage insect control are given in the table below.
Treatment of Dose rate Control of nymphs and adults of brown stinkbug
(Kg-L/ha) 3DA-A
Untreated check 0 0
Ethiprole (39.6) +bifenthrin (99) 0.5 98
Ethiprole (59.4) +bifenthrin (148.5) 0.75 100
Ethiprole (100) 0.5 47
Ethiprole (150) 0.75 66
Bifenthrin (40) 0.4 71
From the above results, it is evident that the composition of the present invention provides synergistic control of nymphs and adults of brown bugs.
Example 4
Physics and chemistry research data
The composition of example 1 was used in a physicochemical test to determine the stability of the composition. The composition exhibits a light pink to beige suspension. No precipitation was observed in the composition until 18 months. The viscosity of the composition of example 1 was found to be in the range of 600 to 800 cps. The composition of example 1 was taken for accelerated thermal stability (AHS), wherein the samples were kept at 54 ℃ for 14 days and 28 days. When tested after 14 days and 28 days, the active content of ethiprole and bifenthrin was found to be within acceptable limits. The composition of example 1 showed excellent suspension and no precipitation. Thus, it can be concluded that the composition of example-1 remains stable in the environment as well as in the AHS, which ensures overall stability of the composition for up to 18 months. The stability test results are shown in the following table.
