Technical Content

Diafenthiuron 40% + Flonicamid 10% + Pyriproxyfen 18% WDG is the detailed chemical composition that underpins the efficacy of this product. Each component plays a crucial role in ensuring effective pest control, making this formulation a versatile choice for agricultural professionals.

Features and Mode of Action

Dhum 68% WDG provides a synergistic effect, ensuring effective control of a wide range of pests at various stages of their life cycle, from larvae to adults. The Water Dispersible Granule formulation not only enhances solubility in water but also allows for easy mixing and seamless application. This results in uniform coverage of crops, which is essential for optimal pest management and establishes a protective barrier against future infestations.

Diafenthiuron acts as a mitochondrial electron transport inhibitor, thereby disrupting the energy production process in insects and mites. This disruption leads to severe metabolic dysfunction, resulting in paralysis and ultimately, insect mortality. On the other hand, Flonicamid, which is classified as a neonicotinoid insecticide, disrupts the feeding behavior of insects. It inhibits the stylet penetration— a critical process for feeding— consequently leading to starvation and reduced pest populations. This dual action acts as a feeding inhibitor, thus offering an additional mode of action against pests effectively. Furthermore, Pyriproxyfen, recognized as an insect growth regulator (IGR), interferes with the developmental processes of insects by mimicking juvenile hormone. This interference disrupts the maturation process, consequently preventing the formation of mature eggs and larvae, which is vital for breaking the lifecycle of the pest.
