Agriventure White Rider Insecticide - Acetamiprid 20% SP

Systemic Acetamiprid Insecticide for Effective Control of Whiteflies, Aphids and Other Sucking Pests

AGRIVENTURE White Rider (Acetamiprid 20% SP) is a broad-spectrum systemic insecticide formulated as a soluble powder for effective management of major sucking insect pests. It is rapidly absorbed by plant tissues and moves systemically throughout the crop, providing reliable protection against whiteflies, aphids, jassids, thrips, brown plant hoppers and other sap-feeding insects.

Its systemic, contact and stomach action helps control insects hiding on leaf undersides while protecting new plant growth. White Rider is suitable for use on cotton, chilli, okra, rice, pulses and a wide range of vegetable crops.

Key Features & Benefits

• Systemic insecticide with quick absorption into plant tissues.
• Provides contact, stomach and systemic action for effective pest control.

Mode of Action

Acetamiprid acts on the insect nervous system by binding to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), causing continuous nerve stimulation. This rapidly stops feeding and leads to paralysis and death of the target pests. Its systemic and translaminar movement allows the insecticide to protect both treated and newly developed plant tissues.
