DuPont™ Asana® XL insecticide controls a wide range of insect pests that have economic impact on major field, vegetable, tree fruit and nut crops. Moreover, insect control is accomplished without phytotoxicity. The U.S. label includes more than 50 crops. Each gallon of Asana® XL is formulated with approximately 2 quarts of cottonseed oil. Research on this formulation has demonstrated that the addition of cottonseed oil extends residual activity and makes Asana® XL more resistant to washoff. For the grower, these attributes can contribute to improved financial returns. In addition, the low dosage rates and longer spray intervals minimize the amount of chemical introduced into the environment. Asana® XL is an environmentally sound insecticide. It is a synthetic version of pyrethrin, a naturally occurring insecticide derived from chrysanthemums. sold in gallon size
