ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a pesticidal formulation having systemic activity and intended for application to a stem of a plant, which includes the compound methamidophos as an active ingredient, a suitable solvent for the active ingredient, and a colorant selected to impart an identifiable coloration to the formulation for a predeterminable period of time related to the duration of the residual activity of the active ingredient. The solvent is preferably a non-volatile organic solvent selected for its low phytotoxicity and its low toxicity for humans, such as an aryl ethoxylate or a polyhydric alcohol. The colorant is preferably selected on the basis of its water solubility, having a limited solubility in water to be eluted gradually from the formulation over a period of time selected to coincide with the duration of the residual activity of the active ingredient. The formulation advantageously also includes an ingredient capable of screening ultra violet rays of the sun.
