Voliam Targo is an insecticide developed by Syngenta, a multinational agribusiness company, that is designed to control a variety of pests that are harmful to a range of crops such as cabbages, tomatoes, and squash. The technical content of the insecticide is a combination of two active ingredients, Chlorantraniliprole and Abamectin. The combination of these two active ingredients provides an effective solution for controlling pests such as Diamondback moth, spider mites, leaf miners, and caterpillars.

The mode of action of Voliam Targo is unique in that it combines two different mechanisms of action. Chlorantraniliprole is a ryanodine receptor modulator which activates the insect ryanodine receptors, causing the release of calcium from internal stores in the smooth and striated muscle, resulting in impaired muscle regulation, paralysis and ultimately insect death. Abamectin is a GABA agonist, it stimulates the release of GABA from pre-synaptic inhibitory membranes at the nerve endings and enhances the binding of GABA to receptor sites in the muscle cells of arthropods. This binding results in an increased flow of chloride ions into the cell, essentially blocking the nerve signals, resulting in the pests becoming paralyzed and eventually dying.

The recommended dosage for Voliam Targo is 200ml/acre or 1ml/liter of water. It is applied using a knapsack sprayer with Flood jet or Flat fan nozzles with water. It is recommended to apply the insecticide at the time of pests emergence, and it is safe to the consumer with a low PHI of 3 days.
