As expected at this stage, Syncronยฎ treatments appear slightly behind Hi-C due to their different mode of action, but based on previous seasons, we know they catch up well over time.

We also visited other kiwifruit orchards using Syncronยฎ, giving Patricio first-hand insight into the challenges of low winter chill in the Far North and the resulting variability in budbreak after this seasonโ€™s cold snap.

Every queen wasp trapped now stops thousands of workers from ever appearing = a huge win for our native species and ecosystems. Amazing progress so far! Take a look at the results ๐Ÿ‘‡

Protect your pipfruit, home orchard, or garden from codling moth naturally. Madex 3 is a biological control based on CpGV (codling moth granulosis virus), a naturally occurring pathogen that specifically targets codling moth caterpillars while being safe for bees and beneficial insects.

A rabbit plague at Okere Falls has sparked confusion over who should step in, local or regional councils, or the landowner.

Rabbits are regarded primarily as an agricultural pest. They compete very effectively with livestock for pasture.
