- Quickly halts feeding, which reduces production losses and virus transmission
- Extended control of aphids
- Powered by Inscalis®, a unique mode of action that controls labeled aphid pests that have developed resistance to other insecticides
- Effective tool in an Integrated Pest Management strategy with low impact on beneficial insects, including predatory and parasitic insects

BASF Insecticide Solutions
New innovations. Same reliable support
With the expansion of our insecticide portfolio, we offer a fresh approach to insect management, as well as new innovations with unique modes of action.That’s why we’re providing information on new insecticides, practical resources to help implement best management practices and tools to aid with choosing the best solutions for your operation.
How it Works
- Sefina is a chordotonal organ TRPV channel modulator
- Chordotonal Organs are responsible for: - Biological stretch sensors located in antennae, mouth, legs, wings, or thorax
- Sensory neurons send continuous and misleading signals
- Brain can’t detect sound, gravity or body part movement / position
- Rapidly stops feeding. Control via starvation/dehydration - Disorientation
- Provide insects with their senses of hearing, orientation, and balance
- In leg joints, the same sensors are critical for coordinated movement
- Unusual leg extensions
- Stilt-walking
- Lack of coordination
- Inability to climb
Application Tips
Application Rates1One case of Sefina® insecticide will treat 80 acres.
Crop | Rates |
---|---|
In potatoes 2,3 | For green peach aphid and potato aphid control 81 ml/ac (0.2 L/ha) For sweet potato whitefly and silverleaf whitefly 283 to 405 ml/ac (0.7 to 1.0 L/ha) |
In soybeans4 | For soybean aphid control 81 ml/ac (0.2 L/ha) |
Water volume
Crop | Rates |
---|---|
In potatoes and soybeans | Ground application 40 to 80 L/ac (10 to 20 gal/ac) Aerial application 20 L/ac (5 gal/ac) minimum |
2 Do not make more than two sequential applications of Sefina insecticide before using an effective insecticide with a different mode of action.
3 Do not apply more than 1012 ml/ac (2.5 L/ha) per year.
4 Do not apply more than 162 ml/ac (0.4 L/ha) per year.
Mixing order
1. Fill clean spray tank 1/2 full of clean water and start agitation.2. Add the correct amount of Sefina and continue to agitate until mixed.
3. If tank mix is being applied, add the correct amount while continuing agitation.
4. Clean the spray tank after use.
Application tips
Ensure thorough and uniform coverage by using higher water volumes.Grazing
