Pheroklip® OFM is a product for peaches, nectarines, and other stone fruit where OFM is a pest. It is mainly used In the Goulburn Valley and Cobram where OFM pressure is high.
The release rate of Pheroklip® OFM dispensers is designed to match that of the standard Japanese dispenser. Release rates are measured by weighing 20 individual dispensers to an accuracy of 0.1 milligrams at approximately weekly intervals for a period of a little over 6 months.
Release rates of Pheroklip® OFM and OFM Flex are essentially identical. Release rates drop as temperatures fall. Calculated field life of Pheroklip® OFM is in excess of 200 days but this will vary depending on local temperatures and seasonal conditions. We have designed Pheroklip® OFM to last the full season of late variety peaches in the toughest Australian conditions.
