Mode Of Action
It works primarily through contact action. When the insecticide is sprayed on the foliage or soil, it forms a protective barrier that pests encounter directly. This immediate interaction leads to the rapid immobilization of pests like armyworms and soil insects. The effective contact ensures that the insecticide is not just a deterrent, but also a reliable means of pest control.
Target Pests
Armyworms
Armyworms are notorious for their rapid feeding habits and can defoliate sugarcane plants quickly. They pose a severe threat to crop yield and quality. Brisbane 40EC’s quick-acting formula ensures that these pests are controlled effectively, allowing your sugarcane to thrive without competition for nutrients.
Soil Insects
Soil insects such as root-feeding nematodes and grubs can severely damage the root systems of sugarcane plants. By applying Brisbane 40EC to the soil, farmers can effectively manage these pests, ensuring healthier root development and overall plant vigor.
