Buprofezin Insecticide FMC 25% WP is a highly effective insect growth regulator (IGR) designed to control a wide range of insect pests, particularly immature whiteflies, aphids, and rice plant hoppers. It’s especially beneficial in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs due to its unique mode of action that minimizes the risk of resistance development.
This product is a wettable powder (WP) formulation that combines ease of use with high effectiveness, ensuring that your crops stay healthy and productive throughout the growing season.
The active ingredient in this insecticide is Buprofezin, a powerful insect growth regulator that works by interfering with the pest's molting process. The 25% w/w concentration ensures that the product delivers strong and consistent results for effective pest control.
Buprofezin works through both contact and stomach action. Once ingested by pests or contacted, it disrupts the synthesis of chitin, a critical component in the formation of an insect’s exoskeleton. Without proper exoskeleton formation, the pest cannot molt, ultimately leading to its death. This results in the death of immature insects, especially nymphal whiteflies, before they can mature and reproduce.
Buprofezin FMC 25% WP is highly effective against a range of pests, particularly whiteflies, aphids, and rice plant hoppers. It offers reliable control for pests across several crop types, ensuring the health and yield of your plants.
This product provides a valuable tool for IPM programs, as it offers a unique mode of action different from traditional insecticides. This diversity helps in managing resistance and allows for rotation with other insecticides, which enhances long-term pest management strategies.
Since Buprofezin works by targeting the growth of pests, it has minimal direct toxicity to beneficial insects, such as natural predators and pollinators. This is important for maintaining a healthy ecosystem around your crops.
Cotton: Whiteflies, aphids, and other pests are common threats to cotton, and Buprofezin provides excellent control against these pests, helping to protect the crop and maximize yield.
Rice: Insects like rice plant hoppers and aphids are major pests of rice. Buprofezin controls these pests effectively, ensuring healthy growth and preventing damage that could affect the rice harvest.
Whiteflies (Nymphs): Buprofezin provides excellent control over immature whiteflies, which are notorious for spreading plant diseases and weakening crops.
Aphids: These pests are known for sucking sap from plants, weakening them and reducing yields. Buprofezin helps control aphid populations.
Rice Plant Hoppers: This pest affects rice crops by damaging leaves and stems, leading to significant yield loss. Buprofezin effectively targets and controls rice plant hoppers.
Buprofezin Insecticide FMC 25% WP is an insect growth regulator (IGR) that targets pests like whiteflies, aphids, and rice plant hoppers. It works by disrupting the insect’s ability to synthesize chitin, which is essential for molting. This prevents immature pests from growing into adults, thereby reducing pest populations.
Buprofezin Insecticide FMC 25% WP is especially effective against whitefly nymphs, aphids, and rice plant hoppers. It targets immature stages of these pests, inhibiting their molting process and preventing them from maturing. This makes it an excellent choice for managing these pests on cotton, rice, and other approved crops.
The best time to apply Buprofezin is during the early morning or late afternoon when temperatures are cooler and pest activity is higher. Avoid spraying during the hottest part of the day to prevent product degradation due to UV light, and ensure that the pesticide has time to be absorbed before heavy rain or dew sets in.
After applying Buprofezin, it generally takes 3 to 7 days to observe the full effect on pests, especially whitefly nymphs and aphids. This is because the insecticide works by disrupting the molting process, so it may take some time for pests to die after ingestion or contact.
