Pack sizes: 50 ml, 100 ml, 250 ml, 500 ml, 1 Litre, 5 Litre
A healthy start to crops yields quality and surplus harvests. Bayer’s Gaucho is a trusted and proven seed treatment that helps farmers get a healthy beginning for their crops. Gaucho contains imidacloprid, a powerful insecticide that protects plants from abiotic stress, stimulates root development, and defends against soil and sucking pests and insects. Gaucho application also results in better crop emergence and vigorous plant growth. It is economical to use due to its longer persistence.
Gaucho works as a seed treatment formulation containing the systemic insecticide imidacloprid. It protects crops from harmful insects and pests, whether they are sucking pests of cotton crops or crops like wheat, sunflower, maize, and more.
Easy for farmers to use, Gaucho protects crops for 30-40 days, so no extra sprays are needed. This makes it friendly for farmers and the environment.
Imidacloprid in Gaucho acts as an antagonist to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in insects’ central nervous systems.
It disturbs the proper signal transmission system, leading to the excitation of nerve cells. As a result, the insect experiences a disorder in its nervous system, ultimately leading to the death of the treated insect.
Some of the benefits include
Gaucho’s targeted seed treatment reduces the contamination of the environment.
Offers a user-friendly seed treatment formulation.
Protects crops from early-season sucking insect pests for an initial 30-40 days, reducing the need for extra sprays and supporting natural enemy growth.

Find answers to all your questions
Gaucho is a user-friendly seed treatment formulation; however, there are certain precautions to be considered:
Gaucho is known for its longer persistence. Additionally, it shows rainfastness, which further enhances its effectiveness on treated seeds.
Gaucho, as a seed treatment, protects crops during the early stages, often for 30-40 days after planting. This lowers the immediate need for more sprays or treatments throughout this time. However, crop development and environmental conditions must be monitored to determine whether additional measures are needed for optimal crop health.
