Growers in the Midwest have been battling the potential decrease in yields from soybean aphids for at least nine years.

According to the University of Minnesota Extension, aphid populations build at a rapid pace, doubling in as little as two days under favorable conditions after they have invaded the soybean plan. This makes scouting and timely treatments important to help protect yields.

Leverage® 2.7 insecticide provides protection from the devastation of soybean aphids. It provides both contact and in-plant protection. The in-plant, translaminar movement helps Leverage 2.7 to spread throughout the leaf. This allows control on the underside of the leaves where soybean aphids attack the plant.

Not only do growers gain protection from soybean aphids, but a broad spectrum of sucking and chewing pest including bean leaf beetles, stink bugs, plant bugs and adult corn rootworms.
