Transform WG has contact and ingestion activity. Soft on many beneficial, predatory insects. Translaminar and foliar systemic (moves to new leaves). An adjuvant may improve spray deposition. Ground, air, or chemigation. It is probably best used early to mid-season to control incoming pests. If a neonicotinoid (4A) was applied at planting or at hilling, apply a product from a different MOA group first, then rotate to Transform (4C). Expect at least 14 days of residual control. Make only two consecutive applications before rotating to an insecticide with a different MOA. This product does not have a full set of MRLs; use with caution if exporting potatoes.

Emergence to Row Closure
| Target | Application per Acre | REI | PHI | MOA | Eff. | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aphid | 0.75-1.5 oz | 24 h | 7 d | 4C | E | Early-to-mid season application will cover aphids and some other migrating pests. Apply when aphids are migrating into potatoes. |
| Beet Leafhopper | 1.5-2.25 oz | 24 h | 7 d | 4C | E | Early-to-mid season application will cover many migrating pests, including BLHs. Watch the Contour Maps in the Potato DAS every week to monitor regional BLH population densities. |
| Lygus Bugs | 1.5-2.25 oz | 24 h | 7 d | 4C | E | See Section 2ee Recommendation for plant bugs in potatoes. Apply when nymph stages are present. |
| Potato Psyllid | 2.0-2.25 oz | 24 h | 7 d | 4C | E (n+a) | Early-to-mid season application will cover many incoming, migrating pests, including psyllids. Translaminar so it should get to the nymphs on the underside of leaves. Watch the Contour Maps in the Potato DAS every week to monitor regional potato psyllid population densities. |
