  • Applications

    Ethoprop (Eptam) is a soil-applied organophosphate insecticide and nematicide used primarily in agriculture to control soil-dwelling pests such as nematodes and root-feeding insects that damage roots and seedlings. Commonly applied as a pre-plant soil treatment or furrow application to protect germinating seedlings and young plants in field crops and vegetables. It is also used in horticulture and nursery settings to safeguard the roots of ornamentals and container-grown plants during establishment. In some cropping systems, it may be applied as a soil drench or pre-plant treatment to provide residual protection. Use is subject to regulatory approvals and label directions.
