Dinotefuran + pymetrozine 20% +50% wdg

Product Use and Application

1. Target Crops: This product is primarily used for the control of pests in rice, cotton, vegetables (such as cabbage and leafy greens), and fruit crops (such as citrus and apples). It is particularly effective against piercing-sucking pests like aphids, whiteflies, and leafhoppers.

2. Application Method:

• Dosage: Typically, this product should be applied at a concentration of 150-300 grams per hectare, depending on the pest pressure and the specific crop.
• Spraying: It is recommended to use a knapsack sprayer or other suitable equipment to ensure even coverage on leaves and stems.
• Timing: Apply when pests are observed at the early stages of infestation. Early application helps to maximize effectiveness and reduce damage to crops.

3. Mode of Action:

• Dinotefuran is a neonicotinoid insecticide that disrupts the central nervous system of insects by acting on the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, leading to paralysis and death.
• Pymetrozine is an insecticide that targets the feeding behavior of pests, causing them to cease feeding, leading to starvation and death.

4. Re-Entry Interval and Safety Precautions:

• Do not enter treated fields until the spray has dried completely.
• Use appropriate protective equipment during mixing and application to avoid exposure.

5. Rotation and Resistance Management: For effective resistance management, avoid repeated use of this product on the same pest population. Rotate with other insecticides having different modes of action.

This formulation provides both quick knockdown and prolonged residual control, making it suitable for integrated pest management (IPM) programs.
