The AZTEC® 4.67G Advantage

AZTEC 4.67G is an easy-to-handle, granular corn soil insecticide that offers a high level of broad spectrum control in all types of soil, weather conditions, and tillage practices. It protects your crop with a low-use rate and is easy on the environment. The active ingredient has low water solubility and strong soil binding characteristics that keep it near your corn plants, protecting them from soil insects.

The combination of a unique organophosphate and a proven pyrethroid provides control over a broad spectrum of tough insects including cutworm and rootworm. The low-use rate means less exposure to you and less load on the environment. Even though AZTEC 4.67G has a low-use rate, it still provides consistent control of major corn soil insects. But while AZTEC 4.67G is bad news for corn soil insects, field tests show that it has little impact on earthworms. So with AZTEC 4.67G you get an environmentally sound, low-odor product, with a low active ingredient where you need it, and less impact on the world.

Another benefit of AZTEC 4.67G is its longer residual activity, giving you control of rootworms through the hatching period—up to 10 weeks or longer. AZTEC 4.67G doesn’t have a problem with enhanced microbial degradation, either. This means there is no microbial build-up, which would reduce the effectiveness of the chemical.

AZTEC 4.67G has no herbicide interaction, which means you have the flexibility to use any herbicide you want. Since AZTEC 4.67G doesn’t affect plant metabolism, you don’t have to worry about corn plant injury when using certain herbicides.

AZTEC 4.67G can only be applied through the SmartBox™ system, a closed handling and application system. AZTEC 4.67G / SmartBox™ system increases application accuracy and grower productivity, and maximizes worker and environmental safety.

Performance

AZTEC® 4.67G gives you consistent performance with the high level of control you need in your world - no matter what types of soil you have, weather conditions you experience or tillage practices you use. The active ingredient has low water solubility and strong soil binding characteristics that keep it near your corn plants, protecting them from soil insects.

Broad Spectrum Insect Control

AZTEC® 4.67G helps you protect your corn investment by controlling major corn soil insects. As a combination of a unique organophosphate and a proven pyrethroid, AZTEC ® 4.67G give you two modes of action - to control tough insects like cutworm and rootworm.

Less Grower Exposure and Environmental Impact

The low-use rate means less exposure to you and less load on the environment. Even though AZTEC® 4.67G has a low-use rate, it still provides consistent control of major corn soil insects. But while AZTEC® 4.67G is bad news for corn soil insects, field tests show that it has little impact on earthworms. So with AZTEC® 4.67G you get an environmentally-sound, low-odor product, with a low active ingredient where you need it, and less impact on the world.

Longer Residual

Another benefit of AZTEC® 4.67G is its longer residual activity, giving you control of rootworms through the hatching period - up to 10 weeks or longer. AZTEC® 4.67G doesn't have a problem with enhanced microbial degradation, either. This means there is no microbial build-up which would reduce the effectiveness of the chemical. AZTEC® 4.67G performs year after year.

No Herbicide Interaction

AZTEC® 4.67G has no herbicide interaction, which means you have the flexibility to use any herbicide you want. Since AZTEC® 4.67G doesn't affect plant metabolism, you don't have to worry about corn plant injury when using certain herbicides.

AZTEC 4.67G -- Management

AZTEC 4.67G provides long residual activity, giving you control of rootworms through the hatching period—up to 10 weeks or longer. AZTEC 4.67G doesn’t have a problem with enhanced microbial degradation, either. This means there is no microbial build-up, which would reduce the effectiveness of the chemical.

Band Application
Apply specified dosage at planting as a 7-inch band over the row behind the press wheel. Granules must be incorporated into the top one-inch of soil using tines, chains, or other suitable equipment.

T-Band Application
Apply specified dosage at planting as a T-Band over the row behind the planter shoe and in front of the press wheel. Incorporation into the soil surface may also be accomplished with a drag chain or other suitable equipment.

In-Furrow Application
Apply specified dosage at planting directly into the seed furrow behind the planter shoe and in front of the press wheel.

Optimum Control
Optimum control of cutworm is achieved when AZTEC 4.67G is applied as a Band or T-Band. Optimum control of wireworms, seedcorn maggots, seedcorn beetles, and white grubs is achieved when AZTEC 4.67G is applied as a T-Band or In-Furrow.

For no-till corn where runoff drains into adjacent or neighboring aquatic sites (lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes, estuaries, natural ponds, or ponds used for commercial fishing), apply AZTEC 4.67G as an In-Furrow or T-Band application only.

For application made within 20 yards of aquatic sites (lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes, estuaries, natural ponds, or ponds used for commercial fishing), apply AZTEC 4.67G as an In-Furrow application only.

Cover or incorporate spills (including end-row spillage). The SmartBox™ system will minimize this.

SmartBox™
AZTEC 4.67G must be applied with the SmartBox™ system.

Always read and follow label recommendations prior to use.
