Dual-Action Caterpillar Control with Growth Regulation and Fast Feeding Stop

AGRIVENTURE NOVA BENZ is a broad-spectrum combination insecticide containing Novaluron 5.25% + Emamectin Benzoate 0.9% SC. It is specially formulated for the management of damaging Lepidopteran pests, including caterpillars, borers and diamondback moth.

The formulation combines the insect growth-regulating activity of Novaluron with the contact, stomach and translaminar action of Emamectin Benzoate. This dual mechanism disrupts larval development while rapidly stopping pest feeding, helping protect leaves, shoots, fruits and developing crop parts.

Key Features and Benefits

• Combines an insect growth regulator with a fast-acting neuroactive insecticide.
• Controls caterpillars, borers and diamondback moth through two different modes of action.
• Disrupts chitin formation and prevents successful larval molting.
• Causes rapid feeding cessation, limiting further crop damage.
• Provides translaminar movement to reach pests hiding beneath leaf surfaces.
• Effective against active larvae as well as developing pest populations.
• Suitable for important vegetable, pulse and field crops.
• Suspension Concentrate formulation provides easy mixing and uniform spray coverage.

How the Two Active Ingredients Work

Novaluron is an insect growth regulator that mainly acts after ingestion. It inhibits chitin synthesis, preventing larvae from forming a normal new outer body covering during molting. The affected larvae fail to develop properly and eventually die.

Emamectin Benzoate works through contact and stomach action. It also penetrates leaf tissues through translaminar movement, helping control larvae feeding or hiding on the lower leaf surface. It disrupts neuromuscular activity, causing rapid feeding stoppage, paralysis and death.

Mode of Entry

• Stomach Action: Larvae ingest the active ingredients while feeding on treated crop surfaces.
• Contact Action: Emamectin Benzoate affects insects coming into direct contact with spray deposits.
• Translaminar Action: The formulation moves through leaf layers to reach pests on the opposite surface.
• Growth-Regulating Action: Novaluron interrupts larval molting and development.

Recommended Dose and Application

• Per litre of water: 2 मिली
• Per 15-litre spray pump: 30 मिली
• Apply as a uniform foliar spray at the early larval stage.
• Cover both upper and lower leaf surfaces thoroughly.
• Use sufficient water to obtain complete crop-canopy coverage.
• Follow the crop-specific dose and directions printed on the product label.

Best Application Stage

Apply AGRIVENTURE NOVA BENZ when young caterpillars or early signs of feeding damage first appear. Application during the early larval stage generally provides better control because Novaluron acts during insect growth and Emamectin Benzoate quickly stops larval feeding.

Why Choose AGRIVENTURE NOVA BENZ?

• Targets pest development as well as active feeding.
• Useful for managing difficult caterpillar and borer infestations.
• Helps protect leaves, shoots, pods and fruits from larval damage.
• Translaminar movement improves control of hidden pests.
• Two distinct modes of action support insecticide resistance management.
• Suitable for cabbage, chilli, red gram, paddy and other crops.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AGRIVENTURE NOVA BENZ used for?

It is used to control diamondback moth, caterpillars, fruit borers, shoot borers, pod borers and other Lepidopteran pests.

What is the technical composition of NOVA BENZ?

It contains Novaluron 5.25% and Emamectin Benzoate 0.9% in a Suspension Concentrate formulation.

What is the recommended dosage?

The recommended dose is 2 ml per litre of water or approximately 30 ml in a 15-litre spray pump.

How does Novaluron control caterpillars?

Novaluron inhibits chitin synthesis and prevents larvae from completing the molting process, resulting in abnormal development and death.

Can NOVA BENZ control pests beneath leaves?

Yes. Emamectin Benzoate has translaminar movement, helping it reach caterpillars feeding or hiding on the lower leaf surface.

When should the product be sprayed?

Apply at the first appearance of young larvae or fresh feeding damage for more effective pest control.
