Actellic® and Grain Master® Grain Storage Management

ARTICLE SUPPLIED BY:

Grain stored on farm represents the ultimate asset a grower obtains by investing in preparing, sowing, fertilizing and harvesting a crop. The asset must be protected. While grain is in storage, unless it is managed properly, its quality and value will deteriorate. An integrated approach is the key to grain management says Nick George, Canterbury/West Coast Territory Manager for Orion AgriScience. With the grain harvest just around the corner, Nick reminds us about the importance of good grain hygiene to minimise insect problems once the grain is stored. Nick points out that last harvest was hot and dry with grain moisture levels low, therefore, growers were reluctant to use grain storage insecticides. This caused problems later on in storage with an unprecedented amount of phone calls this winter regarding advice on how to treat insect infestations post harvest. The hygiene management process can be split into 2 halves - Pre Harvest and Harvest. Orion AgriScience has a range of products for each step of the way. PRE HARVEST (6-8 weeks before harvest) Good silo or grain store hygiene is an essential foundation for keeping grain insect

free explains Nick. It is important that all old grain, debris and cobwebs are removed, including around hatches and doors. This also applies to harvesting and handling equipment.

spectrum insect control. Deltamethrin is a highly active second generation pyrethroid insecticide that provides a differing but complementary mode of action to pirimiphos methyl.

•

HARVEST

Step 1) Spray out vegetation with a 1-2 meter wide buffer around the silo to prevent harbouring pests.

•

Step 2) Sweep all surfaces thoroughly and burn the sweepings.

•

Step 3) Treat all cleaned surfaces with Actellic®50EC liquid using 100ml/10L water and spray to the point of run off.

•

Step 4) Complete the pre harvest process by using GrainMaster® SuperSmoke® prior to filling. The fine smoke produced by the firework like smoke generator permeates the empty silo, ensuring insects in every nook and cranny are controlled. A single 60g smoke generator will treat a silo or grain store with a capacity of up to 250T of wheat or 200T of barley. If capacity is bigger extra smoke generators will be required.

GrainMaster® SuperSmoke® is the world’s first dual action smoke generator that combines two of the world’s leading stored grain insecticides into one easy to use product and was launched in NZ by Orion AgriScience a couple of seasons ago. Pirimiphos methyl is the established active ingredient in the Actellic range, and provides the foundation for broad

At silo filling there are two ad mixture options using Actellic®Dust or Actellic®50EC. These insecticides should be incorporated evenly throughout the grain to provide the final level of protection. The Actellic®Dust use rate is 200g/T. If the dust is not applied evenly throughout, the grain results will be compromised - this is the number one offender for poor results. The other option is to use Actellic®50EC liquid, which is applied through a calibrated spray system. The use rate for this is 8ml/T diluted with sufficient water to obtain uniform distribution (Usually around 2L). When used together, and in conjunction with good hygiene and storage practices, the Orion AgriScience range provides exceptional knock down and on-going control of common grain pests in New Zealand.
