Soma Insecticide contains Cartap Hydrochloride 4% GR and is a systemic granular insecticide designed for the management of important chewing insect pests in paddy and other recommended crops.
The granular formulation is applied directly to the field by broadcasting. After application, the active ingredient is absorbed through the plant roots and helps protect the crop against pests such as stem borers, leaf folders, shoot borers and other chewing caterpillar pests under proper application practices.
Soma is particularly useful in paddy where stem borers and leaf folders can damage crop growth during important vegetative stages. Its granular formulation allows easy field application without the need for foliar spray equipment.
Uniform broadcasting helps distribute the granules throughout the treated field and supports effective pest management when the product is applied at the recommended dose, crop stage and field condition.

Cartap Hydrochloride acts on the insect nervous system by interfering with normal nerve signal transmission. After exposure, susceptible insects reduce or stop feeding, followed by paralysis and eventual death.
Because Soma has systemic activity, the active ingredient can be taken up by the plant and helps protect developing plant tissues against susceptible feeding pests.
