Surround

The physical barrier has a repellent effect on pests, as the insects and their sensory organs are impaired. There is no resistance to Surround® WP Crop Protectant as the product is not toxic but has a purely physical effect.

Surround® WP Crop Protectant is an effective solution against the pear leaf sucker and Drosophila suzukii, is approved for organic farming and is free from any synthetic residues.

Effective action against common pear leaf sucker provides additional protection against black fungi

The use of Surround® WP Crop Protectant reduces or completely prevents infestation by the common pear borer in pear crops. This also prevents the formation of black fungi (sooty molds), which usually occur as a result of infestation by the common pear leaf sucker.

This effectively counteracts the negative effects of black fungi, such as impaired photosynthesis, reduced quality and yield or more difficult harvesting and care processes.

Surround® WP Crop Protectant works effectively, strengthens the health of pear crops and thus ensures the highest quality and best yields.

The correct use of Surround®

WP Crop Protectant in pear culture

Surround® WP Crop Protectant is widely used in agriculture, especially in fruit growing, for efficient control of the common pear leafhopper (Cacopsylla pyri). The spray application starts at BBCH 51 (bud break) or when the overwintering females appear and should be carried out until BBCH 69 (end of flowering). Treatment should be carried out at seven-day intervals, with no more than five applications per crop and vegetation period being recommended for optimum effectiveness. Effectiveness is maximized by applying to dry foliage. A complete treatment of the trees is necessary for the continuous formation of the protective coating.
