Formulation Type: Soluble Granule (SG)
Chemical Group: Avermectin group insecticide
Mode of Action: Stomach and contact poison, acts on insect nervous system
Emamectin Benzoate is a systemic and contact insecticide derived from the naturally occurring soil bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis. It works mainly as a stomach and contact poison, effectively controlling lepidopteran (caterpillar) pests.

| Dose | 150β220 grams per hectare (depending on crop & pest) |
| Dilution | Mix with 500β1000 liters of water for foliar spray |
| Application Method | Uniform foliar spray covering both sides of leaves |
Formulation Type: Wettable Powder (WP)
Chemical Group: Triazine herbicide
Mode of Action: Selective, systemic, pre- and early post-emergence herbicide
Atrazine 50% WP is a selective systemic herbicide used mainly in maize to control annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. It can be applied before weed emergence (pre-emergence) or soon after weed emergence (early post-emergence).
β’ Atrazine inhibits photosynthesis in susceptible weed plants.
β’ It blocks the electron transport in photosystem II, stopping energy formation in the plant cells.
β’ As a result, weeds turn yellow, wilt, and die slowly after application.
| Particular | Description |
|---|---|
| Dose | 500β600 g per acre |
| Dilution | 200β250 liters of water per acre |
| Time of Application | Pre-emergence (within 2β3 days after sowing) or early post-emergence (when weeds are 2β3 leaf stage) |
| Method of Application | Uniform spray using flat fan or flood nozzle |
| Compatibility | Often used in tank mix with Tembotrione 34.4% SC for complete weed control (broadleaf + grasses) |
Formulation Type: Suspension Concentrate (SC)
Mode of Action: Systemic, post-emergence herbicide
Weed Control Spectrum:
β’ Effectively controls broadleaf weeds and some grassy weeds that compete with maize for nutrients, sunlight, and water.
β’ Common weeds controlled include:
β’ Tembotrione belongs to the HPPD (4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase) inhibitor group.
β’ It blocks carotenoid biosynthesis in weeds, leading to bleaching (whitening) of leaves followed by death.
β’ The herbicide is absorbed through foliage and roots and then translocated throughout the weed plant.
| Particular | Description |
|---|---|
| Dose | 80β120 ml per acre (depending on weed intensity) |
| Dilution | Mix in 150β200 liters of water per acre |
| Time of Application | Post-emergence β when maize is 2β5 leaf stage and weeds are at 2β4 leaf stage |
| Method | Uniform foliar spray using flat fan nozzle |
| Compatibility | Compatible with Atrazine (for broader weed control) |
