Product Snapshot

Key Features & Benefits

• Targeted pest control: Highly active on harmful caterpillars & select sucking pests; soft on many beneficials.
• Fast knockdown: Quick feeding-cessation; larvae are paralyzed and die soon after exposure.
• Deep reach: Translaminar movement protects the underside of leaves and new growth.
• Crop quality: Minimizes feeding damage → cleaner fruits/pods and better marketable yield.
• Easy to use: SG granules disperse quickly; consistent spray quality.

Mode of Action (MoA)

Emamectin activates insect chloride channels (GABA/glutamate-gated) causing uncontrolled ion flow, leading to paralysis and death. Strong stomach action plus contact; translaminar movement shields hidden larvae.
