Vestaron receives California registration

Vestaron Corporation announced that its VST-006330-EP biopesticide has received a product registration and master label from California’s Department of Pesticide Regulation. This follows last year’s registration with EPA and subsequent label expansion last month.

VST-006330-EP will be commercialized under the SPEAR trade name later this year. This product has been approved for the control of a variety of lepidopteran pests of high value crops, including cabbage, cucumber, onions, peppers and tomatoes. Additional registrations include field crops, commercial flowers and ornamentals.

“SPEAR products will bring to growers a new sustainable, environmentally compatible and effective crop protection solution,” said Vestaron CEO, John Sorenson.
