Combination Insecticide
SPINETORAM 12% + TRIFLUMEZOPYRIM 10% WG
An advanced Water Dispersible Granule (WG) combining a spinosyn with a mesoionic insecticide. This novel combination provides superior control of both lepidopteran and homopteran pests, featuring a unique dual nicotinic targeting mechanism for excellent resistance management.
Target Pest
Hoppers & Borers
Mode of Action
Dual Nicotinic Targeting
Crops
Rice, Cotton, Veg, Fruit
Active: Spinetoram + Triflumezopyrim
Formulation: WG (Water Dispersible Granule)
Action: Systemic & Translaminar
Product Information
Mode of Action
Spinetoram activates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) causing excitation and paralysis. Triflumezopyrim acts as a mesoionic nicotinic receptor modulator with a unique binding site. This synergistic dual targeting of the nervous system prevents cross-resistance.
Target Pests
- Brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens)
- White backed planthopper (Sogatella furcifera)
- Stem borers (Scirpophaga incertulas, Chilo suppressalis)
- Leaf folders (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis)
- Bollworms, DBM, Fruit borers
Key Benefits
Simultaneous control of sucking pests (hoppers) and chewing pests (caterpillars). Favorable environmental and toxicological profile.
Recommended Dosage
| Crops | Target Pest | Dosage / Ha (g) | Formulation (g) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rice | Brown Planthopper, White Backed Planthopper | 150 – 200 | 150 – 200 |
| Rice | Leaf Folder | 150 – 200 | 150 – 200 |
Dosage Note: Dosage for Rice is 150-200g per hectare. For Cotton, Vegetables, and Fruits, please refer to the specific product leaflet as rates may vary based on canopy size and pest pressure.
Application Instructions
1. Timing
Apply when pests reach the Economic Threshold Level (ETL). This product works well as a curative spray due to its rapid knockdown effect on both hopper nymphs/adults and caterpillar larvae.
2. Water Management (Rice)
Ensure proper spray coverage at the base of the plant for hoppers. While Triflumezopyrim has systemic properties, good coverage enhances the speed of control.
Safety Precautions
Resistance Management: This product combines Group 5 (Spinosyns) and Group 4E (Mesoionics). It is a powerful tool for breaking resistance to neonicotinoids and diamides.
Handling: The WG formulation is dust-free and easy to handle. Wear standard protective gear during mixing and application.
