Description

Description
Diafenthiuron 50% WP is a broad-spectrum insecticide designed to control sucking pests like aphids, whiteflies, and thrips in crops such as cotton, vegetables, and ornamentals. It provides long-lasting protection while promoting overall crop health and yield.

Mode of action
Diafenthiuron acts as a pro-insecticide, transforming into its active form within the pest’s body. It inhibits mitochondrial respiration, leading to energy depletion and paralysis in target pests. The compound also offers an anti-feeding effect, reducing crop damage immediately after application.

Benefits

  • Effective against sucking pests: Provides targeted control of whiteflies, aphids, and thrips.
  • Dual activity: Combines contact and systemic action for comprehensive pest management.
  • Anti feeding effect: Minimizes damage instantly by stopping pests from feeding.
  • Long residual action: Ensures extended protection with fewer applications.
  • Crop compatibility: Safe for use on a wide range of crops when used as per recommendations.

Application guidelines
Apply Diafenthiuron 50% WP as a foliar spray at the onset of pest infestation. Follow recommended dosage and spray intervals for effective and sustained pest control. Ensure thorough coverage for optimal results.
