WATCH NOW 👉 Early NPV in Sorghum: youtu.be/zIIAi7v09Xs Early NPV = Ongoing Control - It really is that simple 🐛 #AgBiTech #Sorghum #Helicoverpa

Early NPV = Ongoing Control When you hear reports of Helicoverpa activity in the region, act early – plan to apply NPV. Killing small caterpillars early creates an amplifying infection cycle that provides control from flowering to harvest.

🦠 #FunFact: ViVUS is made up of naturally occurring nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPVs) that specifically target #Helicoverpa 🐛 Harmless to humans, pollinators, beneficial insects & the environment but lethal to host caterpillar pests. Putting nature & science to good work! #AgBiTech

🍓🫐 Summer berries are too valuable to share with caterpillars. Manage #Helicoverpa larvae with ViVUS Armigen. Safe to use during flowering with no harm to pollinators or pickers. Safe to re-enter the crop once dry. Protect #berries 👉 bit.ly/Armigen #AgBiTech

🌽 Fawligen is an effective biological option to manage FAW while protecting beneficial insects & reducing resistance risks. Protect your crops & skip the worry over developing resistance or harming the environment 👉 bit.ly/ContactABT #AgBiTech #ViableAg #FallArmyworm

📣Sorghum growers: Give early worms the bird! 🐛ViVUS Max works best when targeting small #Helicoverpa larvae before they grow & cause serious damage to yield & grain quality. Stay ahead of pest pressure & protect your #sorghum crop 👉 bit.ly/ViVUSMax #AgBiTech #ViableAg

👉 Southern growers, it's time. Follow the lead of the north: protect #canola pods toward #Harvest25 🐛#Helicoverpa larvae can bore into pods & reduce yields + compromise quality. ✅ ViVUS Max offers safe, targeted control. Safeguard yields 👉 bit.ly/ViVUSMax #AgBiTech
71
🌱 Give early worms the bird! Don’t leave #Sorghum vulnerable to #Helicoverpa 🐛ViVUS Max is a highly specific NPV ✅ Effective, sustainable & safe to apply during key crop stages. Go early at 10% primary tillers flowering to prevent loss later 👉 bit.ly/ViVUSMax
73
📏Size matters for caterpillar control. 🐛ViVUS works best on 1st–3rd instar #Helicoverpa larvae. Small larvae ingest more virus relative to body size, leading to faster & more effective control ✅ Timing is 🔑 Monitor crops closely & time applications right. #AgBiTech #ViableAg
37
Optimol is designed to increase the efficacy of ViVUS 📈 Adding Optimol to the tank mix improves coverage, protects the virus & enhances performance under tough conditions like heat or UV exposure ☀️ Help ViVUS go further 👉 bit.ly/Optimol #AgBiTech #ViableAg

🦠 How does ViVUS Max protect #sorghum? 🐛#Helicoverpa larvae ingest the virus when feeding. Inside the gut occlusion bodies release virus particles that multiply & spread. ✅ Effective, natural control with no known resistance Give early worms the bird 👉 bit.ly/ViVUSMax
