Generation of data - residues in custard apples and passionfruit (MT25012)

Project summary

This project is working to give custard apple and passionfruit growers better tools to manage damaging insect pests. By supporting the registration of VERTENTO insecticide, the project introduces a new option to help protect crops from pests like spotting bug. Once registered, VERTENTO will help growers improve fruit quality and yields, boosting profitability and sustainability for these industries.  

Even if full registration isn’t achieved, Syngenta will pursue a minor use permit so growers can still benefit. This work represents a step forward in pest management and supports the long-term success of custard apple and passionfruit production in Australia.
