Key Technical Details
- Active Ingredient: Fipronil 80% w/w (WG formulation via fluid bed technology)
- Mode of Action: Acts primarily as an ingestion toxicant with contact action, disrupting the insect central nervous system by interfering with GABA and glutamate-gated chloride channels.
- Target Pests: Stem borer, leaf folder, thrips, and diamondback moth.
- Recommended Crops: Rice (paddy), grapes, onion, cabbage, chilli, and cotton.
Benefits & Application
- Low-Dose Efficacy: Effective at very low application rates (e.g., roughly 50–62.5 g/ha for rice), lowering environmental impact.
- Crop Vigor: Known to exhibit secondary plant-growth enhancement effects, leading to healthier yields.
- Safety & Handling: Dust-free granules that suspend easily in water. Always wear protective gear (gloves, mask, goggles) and avoid re-entering treated fields for at least 24 hours.
