UPL Lancer Insecticide for Systemic Control of Sucking and Chewing Pests
UPL Lancer Insecticide is a broad-spectrum organophosphate insecticide containing Acephate 75% SP. It provides systemic, contact and stomach action against label-listed sucking and chewing insect pests in crops such as paddy and cotton.
Acephate is absorbed by treated foliage and moves within plant tissues, helping protect treated crop parts from feeding insects. Apply Lancer at the early stage of pest infestation and ensure uniform spray coverage according to the crop-specific instructions printed on the product label.

How to Apply UPL Lancer Insecticide
- Inspect the crop and identify the target pest correctly.
- Measure the required quantity according to the current product label.
- Fill the spray tank partially with clean water.
- Dissolve the measured powder separately in a small quantity of water.
- Add the prepared solution to the spray tank while stirring.
- Add the remaining water and maintain proper agitation.
- Spray uniformly over pest-affected crop parts and foliage.
- Use the prepared spray mixture on the same day.
Apply when the target pest first reaches an actionable level. Avoid spraying during strong wind, expected rainfall or intense afternoon heat. Follow the label-prescribed waiting period, re-entry interval and personal-protection requirements.
काम करने का तरीका
Acephate belongs to IRAC Group 1B. It inhibits the acetylcholinesterase enzyme in the insect nervous system, leading to an abnormal accumulation of acetylcholine. This causes continuous nerve stimulation, paralysis and eventual death of susceptible pests.
In susceptible insects, some ingested acephate can be converted into methamidophos, which also inhibits acetylcholinesterase. Product efficacy depends on correct pest identification, application timing, dose and spray coverage.
