Description:

AGRIVENTURE THI PLATINUM is a highly concentrated, broad-spectrum neonicotinoid insecticide. It works via systemic, contact, and stomach action to control sucking and chewing pests like aphids, thrips, jassids, whiteflies, and termites. It dissolves quickly in water and is highly effective at low doses.

Technical content: Thiamethoxam 75% SG

Key Features & Benefits:

• Powerful Systemic Action: Quickly absorbed by plant leaves and roots, moving through the vascular system to protect the entire plant, including newly emerging tissues.
• Fast Knockdown Effect: Pests stop feeding almost immediately upon contact or ingestion, preventing crop damage from spreading.
• Broad-Spectrum Pest Control: Highly effective against both foliar-feeding sucking pests and soil-dwelling insects, such as aphids, jassids, thrips, whiteflies, and termites.
• Long Residual Activity: Offers prolonged protection, which reduces the need for frequent applications and lowers overall input costs.
• Water-Soluble Formula (SG): Soluble Granules (SG) dissolve quickly and uniformly in water, making it easy to mix and spray.
• Crop Safety: Acts only on targeted pests while being gentle on the crop itself, which promotes healthier and more productive plant growth.

Crops suitability: Cotton, Rice (Paddy), Sugarcane, Groundnut, Tomato, Chilli, Brinjal, Okra, Capsicum, Citrus, Mango, Grapes

Commonly used for (Insect / Diseases):

• Field & Cash Crops: Jassids, Thrips, Green/Brown Plant Hoppers, Termites, Early Shoot Borers
• Vegetables: Whiteflies, Aphids, Thrips, Jassids
• Fruits: Sucking pest complexes

Mode of entry:

• Systemic & Contact Action: Insects ingest the active ingredient while feeding on the plant's sap or tissues, or absorb it directly upon contact.

Mode of action:

• Rapid Systemic Uptake: The Water-Soluble Granule (SG) dissolves instantly and is quickly absorbed by the plant's roots and foliage.
• Vascular Distribution: It moves systemically through the xylem to all plant parts, providing uniform protection for new growth.
• Nervous System Disruption: Thiamethoxam binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the insect's nervous system.
• Paralysis and Death: This binding disrupts normal nerve signals, leading to rapid paralysis, feeding cessation, and eventual pest mortality.

Mode of application: Foliar spray or Broadcasting/Soil mix

Dose: 10gm in 15-liter water

Additional information:

• Timing: For maximum efficacy, apply at the very first sign of pest infestation or during the early growth stages of the crop.
• Environment: Ensure adequate soil moisture for soil-applied treatments to promote root uptake. Avoid applying if heavy rain is expected within a few hours.
