Sumitomo Celquin is a broad spectrum insecticide formulated with Quinalphos 25% EC, designed to control a wide range of insect pests in agricultural crops. It works through contact and stomach action, providing effective pest control and protecting crops from insect damage.
This insecticide acts as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor that affects the nervous system of insects, resulting in rapid pest control. Celquin also provides good translaminar activity, allowing the product to reach hidden pests on leaf surfaces and inside plant tissues.
With its strong initial knockdown effect and long residual activity, Celquin helps farmers reduce the number of spray applications required during the crop season while maintaining healthy crop growth and better productivity.
