Key Features Of Cutlas 20SC

Modes Of Action

1. Systemic Action 

The systemic action involves the absorption of the active ingredient by the plant's vascular system. Once applied, it travels through the plant, ensuring that every part receives protection.

This method is particularly effective against pests that feed on the plant sap, as it targets insects throughout the plant rather than just the areas where they are directly sprayed. The result is a robust barrier that helps prevent extensive damage.

2. Translaminar Action Of Cutlas 20SC

It also boasts translaminar properties, which allow the insecticide to penetrate leaf surfaces and move within the leaf tissue. This is particularly advantageous for targeting pests that hide on the underside of leaves, such as aphids and whiteflies.

By ensuring that no part of the plant is left unprotected, Cutlas 20SC enhances the efficacy of pest control efforts.
