  Gaucho Silver Edition
A gaucho is a South American cattle herder, the equivalent to the North American " cowboy " in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and (with the spelling"gaúcho") southern Brazil.
Gauchos were generally nomadic and lived on the pampas, the plain thatextends north from Patagonia, bounded on the west by the Andes and extending as far north as the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul.
The epic poem Martín Fierro by José Hernández used the gaucho as a symbol of Argentine national tradition, in contradistinction toEuropeanizing tendencies and to corruption.

 Gaucho seed-applied insecticide now approved for snap beans
Gaucho seed-applied insecticide is now federally approved to protect succulent shelled beans and edible podded beans from early season insect pests.
Applied directly to the seed, Gaucho insecticide protects seeds and seedlings from damage and stand loss caused by both soil and foliar insect pests, including wireworm, seed corn maggot, bean leaf beetle, imported fire ant, and aphids.
First introduced in 1995, Gaucho insecticide is widely used by growers of corn, cotton, sorghum, wheat and canola to protect seeds and seedlings from early season insect pests.

Gaucho 480 was applied at 3 rates at planting to Alpowa soft white spring wheat.
The 3 rates of Gaucho 480 insecticide equally reduced RWA numbers even under this extreme pressure with significant differences in mean number of RWA per tiller and yield compared with the two checks.
The Wawawai check, Alpowa check, and the low rate of Gaucho were essentially dead at 60 DAE with the two higher rates of Gaucho-treated Alpowa being still green at this point.

 Manitoba Insect Update   May 13, 2002 - Manitoba Agriculture and Food
Fields without either an insecticide in the seed treatment or a granular insecticide applied with the seed need to be scouted frequently until there are at least 3 or 4 true leaves.
The insecticide in Gaucho needs to be moved into the plant to be broken down.
What is obvious in some of the fields where newer seed treatments containing insecticides have been used is that there can at times be fairly heavy shot-hole injury from flea beetles around the edges of some of these fields, although further in the field there is little or no damage.

To evaluate the rate responses of clothianidin (Poncho®), imidacloprid (Gaucho® / Prescribe®) and thiamethoxam (Cruiser®) corn seed coatings against wild populations of southern corn billbug and wireworms on commercial farms.
The yield data (Figure 6) closely paralleled at-harvest plant stand counts, indicating that plant population was the primary yield component and that if plants survived the early-season wireworm attack they were not seriously damaged or regained their health.

It works at low rates, which means Gaucho XT is easy on the environment and beneficial insects compared to traditional soil or foliar-applied insecticides.
Gaucho 480 insecticide may be used at rate of 0.5 to 1.0 fluid ounce per one hundred pounds of seed to extend the period of protection.
Before using a foliar insecticide, however, it is highly recommended that a grower compare Gaucho XT-treated fields with a non-insecticide check to compare aphid feeding damage, not just populations.

 Bayer CropScience Receives EPA Registration for GAUCHO on Soybeans
GAUCHO reduces bean leaf beetle feeding and aids in reducing the bean pod mottle virus carried by over-wintering populations of the beetle.
GAUCHO seed-applied insecticide is compatible with rhizobium inoculant and fungicide systems including SoyGard®, SoyGard L® with Protégé® and ApronMaxx® seed treatments.
Growers who want the additional protection provided by GAUCHO should contact their soybean seed supplier, Holliday says, since the insecticide is applied directly to the seed by seed companies and seed conditioners.

 Canadian Honey Council - Effects on bees
The insecticide Gaucho, put in question by French bee-keepers, who have seen sunflower pollen cause mortality of bees, may equally contaminate the pollen of corn, according to one scientific study published Thursday by the specialist agency Agra.
It confirms that "the bees are still exposed to the molecule of Gaucho, imidacloprid, via pollen of the corn treated with this insecticide ", writes the agency specializing in agriculture and agrifood.
All reveal the presence of imidacloprid in pollen of corn treated with insecticide, a value average ranging between 3,3 and 3,7 parts per billion (ppb, is between 3,3 and 3,7 micrograms per kilo).

 Seed-applied insecticides protect your allies
Applied directly to the seed coat prior to planting, Gaucho is absorbed systemically into the plant as the seed germinates and starts to grow.
So while Gaucho provides control of the insect pests that feed on the seeds and seedlings, it poses essentially no risk to the beneficial species and minimal environmental risk.
Research trials around the world have shown that seed-applied Gaucho has no effect on bees and other pollinators that feed on the nectar of plants grown from seed treated with Gaucho insecticide prior to planting.

 Takes on greater urgency
With seed treatments such as Adage and Gaucho, the expense increases about three-fold in proportion to the increased plant population in UNR compared with conventional row cotton.
To evaluate the economic returns of several thrips control options in UNR cotton, replicated tests were conducted in 1997 and 1998 to evaluate the at-planting insecticide Temik, Gaucho seed treatment, with and without a foliar spray, an Orthene 75S foliar spray treatment and doing nothing.
Interestingly, the overall economic returns for the Gaucho seed treatment plus an Orthene foliar spray, two Orthene foliar sprays and the Temik treatments were relatively close, despite widely varying control costs.
