Product Description:
Czaar is a highly effective insecticide belonging to the synthetic pyrethroid group, widely used in Indian agriculture for its broad-spectrum control of various insect pests. It is formulated as an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) containing 10% of the active ingredient Bifenthrin, known for its excellent contact and stomach action against target pests. Bifenthrin exhibits strong residual activity, ensuring prolonged protection of crops even after application.
Mode of Action:
The mode of action of Czaar involves disruption of the insect's nervous system. It affects the sodium channels of nerve cells, causing hyperexcitation, paralysis, and ultimately death of the pest. This rapid knockdown action makes it particularly valuable for managing sudden pest outbreaks. It is effective against both sucking and chewing pests, offering farmers a reliable solution across a variety of crop stages.
| Crops | Target Pest/Disease | Dose per Acre (gm/ml) |
|---|---|---|
| Cotton | Bollworm, Whitefly | 320 ml/acre |
| Paddy | Stem borer, Leaf folder, Green Hopper | 200 ml/acre |
| Sugarcane | Termites | 400 ml/acre |
Benefits:
One of the key advantages of Czaar is its dual mode of action—through both contact and ingestion. It offers a quick knockdown effect while also providing lasting protection due to its residual activity on plant surfaces. Its low water solubility and high affinity for plant surfaces reduce the chances of it being washed away by rain, making it suitable even in regions prone to sporadic showers.
