Description

Chromafenozide 80% WP is a selective insecticide formulated as a Wettable Powder (WP) for the effective control of lepidopteran pests in a wide range of crops. As an insect growth regulator (IGR), it targets caterpillar pests by disrupting their normal molting process. Its rapid feeding cessation and long-lasting residual activity help protect crops from severe pest damage while supporting sustainable pest management practices.

Chromafenozide acts as a non-steroidal ecdysone agonist, mimicking the natural molting hormone in insects. It induces premature and incomplete molting in susceptible larvae, causing them to stop feeding, become inactive, and eventually die. This unique mode of action makes it an effective tool for resistance management.
