Godrej Elpida (Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG) Insecticide

Chemical composition - Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG

Product Description -
Elpida (Emamectin) belongs to naturally occurring Avermectin group of insecticide and is good for controlling chewing pests such as bollworms in cotton and fruit and shoot borers in okra.

Benefits -
➔ It acts on the nerve cells within hours to suppress muscle contraction thus inhibiting the larvae from feeding, providing rapid crop protection.
➔ It controls larvae of a whole range of insects primarily by ingestion but also affects contact activity. Its activity is fast as it kills the larvae while it's still inside the egg, increasing residual activity.
➔ It lacks intrinsic toxicity and a mode of action is mainly via ingestion rather than contact activity, hence it's considered biologically selective for some beneficial species
Ecologically selective to a wide range of beneficial species due to the rapid breakdown of the active ingredient thus limiting contact activity to a very short period.
➔ It has a unique physiological mode of action, reducing the possibility of cross-resistance to other chemicals.
Stops Lepidopterans feeding within hours of ingestion, preventing subsequent crop damage.
➔ It is currently the most potent active ingredient available against key lepidopteran pests, providing the highest efficacy at the lowest rates.
