Spinetoram represents the next generation of naturally derived spinosyn insecticides.  Spinetoram is a chemically modified analog of spinosad that offers a broader spectrum of insect control than spinosad at generally lower use rates, while retaining the same favorable characteristics as spinosad.  Low mammalian toxicity and favorable environmental profile are key attributes for modern insecticides and these characteristics secured a Reduced Risk determination from US-EPA, leading to accelerated reviews and registrations across the NAFTA region.
