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.
Systemic and Contact Action: Emamectin benzoate 1.9% E.C has both systemic and contact action. When sprayed, it penetrates leaves (translaminar action), killing larvae feeding on the underside.
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.
Pests: Helicoverpa, Spodoptera, diamondback moth (DBM), fruit/shoot borers, leaf miners, and mites.

Application Guidelines:

Dosage: Generally, 1.9% EC requires about

, while 5% SG is applied at lower concentrations due to higher potency.
Safety: While relatively safe, it is crucial to wear protective gear (gloves, masks) during application to avoid skin/eye irritation.

Broad Crop Applicability

Emamectin Benzoate 1.9% EC / 5% SG is recommended for use on a variety of crops such as cotton, vegetables, chili, brinjal, cabbage, okra, tea, rice, and maize. Its high efficacy ensures robust protection against damaging lepidopteran pests across different agricultural environments while maintaining crop safety.

Flexible Formulations for Ease of Use

Available as an emulsifiable concentrate (1.9% EC) and a soluble granule (5% SG), these formulations provide growers the flexibility to choose the most suitable option for their specific application method. Both forms dissolve efficiently, maximizing the insecticidal effect and simplifying the spray process in fields.

Safe and Environmentally Considerate

Classified as slightly hazardous (WHO Class III), Emamectin Benzoate exhibits low mammalian toxicity, making it a safer option for farm workers and the environment. Strict pre-harvest and re-entry intervals are established to enhance user safety and minimize residue on crops for responsible agricultural practice.

FAQ's of Emamectin Benzoate 1.9% EC / 5% SG:

Q: How should Emamectin Benzoate 1.9% EC or 5% SG be applied to crops?

A: For proper application, dilute the recommended dosage of Emamectin Benzoate 1.9% EC in water or dissolve 5% SG in water as per crop requirement and spray evenly on affected crops. Ensure thorough coverage of foliage where lepidopteran pests are likely to feed.

Q: What are the main benefits of using Emamectin Benzoate on my farm?

A: Emamectin Benzoate offers rapid action and long-lasting protection against lepidopteran pests by directly targeting their nervous system, reducing crop damage, enhancing yield quality, and minimizing the risk of pest resurgence.

Q: When is the best time to apply this insecticide for maximum effectiveness?

A: Apply Emamectin Benzoate at the first warning signs of lepidopteran infestation or as indicated by crop monitoring. Early application ensures maximum pest control and prevents severe crop damage.

Q: Where is Emamectin Benzoate registered for agricultural use?

A: Emamectin Benzoate is registered for agricultural use in several countries, including India, making it a trusted and widely adopted solution for lepidopteran pest management in numerous regions.

Q: What process does Emamectin Benzoate use to control pests?

A: The product activates glutamate-gated chloride channels in pests, causing paralysis and eventual death. This targeted action ensures high efficacy against pests while preserving beneficial insects when used as directed.

Q: Is Emamectin Benzoate compatible with other agrochemicals?

A: Yes, Emamectin Benzoate is generally compatible with most commonly used insecticides and fungicides, simplifying integrated pest management when tank-mixed as per label instructions.
