About Emamectin Benzoate 1.9% EC / 5% SG
Emamectin Benzoate 1.9% EC and 5% SG are highly effective, broad-spectrum, systemic insecticides primarily used to control lepidopteran pests (caterpillars, bollworms) in crops like cotton, vegetables, and tea. Operating as a stomach poison, it causes rapid paralysis and feeding cessation, offering long-lasting protection (10-15 days) while being relatively safe for beneficial insects
High Efficiency against Caterpillars: Specifically targets larvae of Lepidoptera, including bollworms, fruit borers, and tobacco caterpillars.
Rapid Action and Long-Lasting Protection: Acts fast upon ingestion, causing pests to stop feeding within hours, with residual activity lasting 10-15 days.
Low Toxicity to Non-Target Organisms: Known for being relatively safe to many beneficial insects, birds, and mammals, making it suitable for integrated pest management (IPM) programs.
Cost-Effective and Reduced Application Frequency: Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG is known for its exceptional effectiveness in controlling a wide range of pests. High potency means lower dosage rates are required, saving costs and labor.
Formulation Differences & Usage:
1.9% EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate): Liquid formulation, often used for broad-spectrum control, including mites and thrips.
5% SG (Soluble Granules): Granular formulation, highly water-soluble, often preferred for ease of handling and high concentration.
Target Crops and Pests:
Crops: Cotton, okra, brinjal, cabbage, tomato, chili, soyabean, and grapes.
