SPINETORAM is an insecticide that is similar to SPINOSAD. They originate from the same place, the fermentation of the actinomycetes bacteria Saccharopolyspora spinosa. The bacteria produce organic compounds called spinosyns which have the insecticidal properties.
SPINOSAD is a combination of spinosyn A and spinosyn D.
SPINETORAM is made from a combination of spinosyns J and spinosyn L which is then synthetically modified to produce SPINETORAM
I guess SPINETORAM is a more potent, highly concentrated insecticide. That would explain the initial price.
