Highly Effective Pest Control

Novaluron is primarily used to control lepidopteran pests that threaten crop yields. As an insect growth regulator, it disrupts the molting process in pests by inhibiting chitin synthesis, leading to effective and targeted pest management without harming beneficial insects or mammals.

Safety and Stability Assured

With a low mammalian toxicity profile and chemical stability under normal temperatures and pressures, Novaluron ensures user and crop safety. Its crystalline granules are virtually odorless and stable, making handling and application straightforward, even in varied agricultural environments.

FAQs of Novaluron:

Q: How should Novaluron be stored to maintain its effectiveness?

A: Store Novaluron in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Proper storage in sealed plastic drums or fiberboard containers maintains its efficacy for a minimum of two years.

Q: What is the primary agricultural usage of Novaluron?

A: Novaluron is employed as an insect growth regulator to control lepidopteran pests in a wide range of crops. It specifically inhibits chitin synthesis in pest larvae, leading to their inability to molt and develop further.

Q: When can Novaluron be applied during crop management?

A: It is best applied during the early infestation stages of lepidopteran pests, ensuring comprehensive protection of crops throughout vulnerable growth periods.

Q: Where is Novaluron typically manufactured and supplied from?

A: Novaluron is manufactured and supplied primarily from India, where it is available through exporters, importers, manufacturers, suppliers, and traders specializing in agricultural solutions.

Q: What is the process for manufacturing Novaluron?

A: Novaluron is produced through a chemical synthesis process, resulting in a high-purity (98%) technical-grade product suitable for agricultural use.

Q: What are the main benefits of using Novaluron as an insecticide?

A: Novaluron provides highly selective pest control, targeting only harmful lepidopteran pests, while posing minimal risk to mammals and beneficial insects. Its stability, low solubility, and extended shelf life make it a reliable choice for crop protection.
