ARROW by Insecticides India

Arrow Systemic Insecticide (Thiamethoxam 25% WG) - Broad Spectrum Pest Control

Effective management of sucking pests is critical for maintaining crop health and ensuring high yield quality. Arrow is a broad-spectrum systemic insecticide featuring Thiamethoxam 25% WG, a second-generation compound from the Neonicotinoid group. Designed for rapid absorption, this formulation provides a robust defense against difficult pests by penetrating plant tissues quickly. It is an essential input for farmers dealing with pests that have developed resistance to conventional chemical treatments.

Key Action and Performance

• Systemic and Translaminar Action: The active ingredient is absorbed rapidly by the plant system and exhibits translaminar movement. This allows it to penetrate leaf tissues and effectively target pests hiding on the underside of leaves, ensuring comprehensive coverage.

• Long Residual Control: Arrow provides extended protection due to its long residual effect, reducing the frequency of applications required to maintain pest-free crops.

• Resistance Management: This formulation is specifically effective against insect populations that show resistance to commonly used insecticides, making it a strategic rotation partner in pest control programs.

• Environmental Profile: Due to its efficacy at lower dosages, it minimizes environmental load. It is also considered safe for beneficial insects, making it suitable for Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies.
