Advanced Caterpillar Control with Fast Feeding Stop and Long-Lasting Protection
AGRIVENTURE EMABENZ GOLD is a premium Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG insecticide developed for effective control of caterpillars, borers, bollworms and other destructive lepidopteran pests. Its soluble granule (SG) formulation dissolves quickly in water and provides excellent crop coverage with translaminar movement.
Once ingested by the target insect, AGRIVENTURE EMABENZ GOLD rapidly stops feeding, minimizing crop damage within a few hours. The active ingredient penetrates leaf tissues to control hidden larvae feeding beneath the leaf surface, making it an ideal solution for vegetables, fruits and field crops.

Mode of Entry
- Contact Action: Controls insects through direct contact with treated plant surfaces.
- Stomach Action: Effective when larvae consume treated foliage.
- Translaminar Movement: Penetrates leaf tissues and controls pests feeding on the underside of leaves.
Mode of Action
Emamectin Benzoate acts on the insect nervous system by binding to glutamate-gated chloride channels in nerve and muscle cells. This increases chloride ion movement, blocks nerve signal transmission, causes irreversible paralysis, and ultimately kills the target pest. Feeding generally stops within a few hours, reducing crop damage quickly.
Recommended Dose & Application
- Dosage: 5–10 g per 15 litres of water.
- Apply as a uniform foliar spray during the early stage of infestation.
- Ensure complete coverage of both upper and lower leaf surfaces.
