Teg super (Emamectin Benzoate 1.9% EC) 250ml

Description

Protect your agricultural assets from aggressive leaf-feeding and fruit-boring larvae with Hifield Teg Super, a professional-grade insecticide containing Emamectin Benzoate 1.9% EC. Formulated as a highly stable emulsifiable concentrate, this liquid solution is designed for rapid foliar spreading, excellent coverage, and high bio-availability.

Caterpillar infestations can quickly cause severe defoliation, structural plant damage, and hollowed-out fruits if left unmanaged. Hifield Teg Super solves this field challenge by providing dual contact and stomach action. It quickly passes through the leaf surface via translaminar movement, creating a localized internal shield of active protection that eliminates hidden larvae and remains highly resistant to environmental wash-off.

Key Benefits & Features

• Advanced Caterpillar Control: Delivers elite protection against a broad spectrum of destructive lepidopteran insects, including voracious armyworms, loopers, and borers.

• Rapid Feeding Cessation: Exposed larvae stop feeding within hours of contact or ingestion, halting crop tissue damage immediately while the pest undergoes dehydration.

• Excellent Translaminar Movement: Rapidly moves through the waxy leaf cuticle to form a secure reservoir of protection inside the leaf tissue, reaching hidden pests feeding on leaf undersides.

• Low Dosage, High Efficiency: Provides powerful field performance at lower active ingredient rates per acre, ensuring an economical and sustainable tool for modern crop management.

• Effective Resistance Management: Derived from natural soil microorganisms, its specific neuromuscular mode of action makes it a prime rotation choice to break resistance cycles caused by synthetic pyrethroids.

Mode of Action

Hifield Teg Super works by permanently disrupting the nerve and muscle functions of target insect species. The active ingredient, Emamectin Benzoate, belongs to the avermectin chemical family and operates as a Chloride Channel Activator. Upon ingestion or contact, it stimulates the continuous release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and permanently opens chloride channels in nerve cells. This continuous influx of chloride ions blocks normal electrical nerve transmissions, resulting in immediate neuromuscular paralysis. The target larvae lose their ability to move or contract, stop feeding instantly, and die shortly after.

Target Crops & Controlled Pests

This versatile liquid emulsifiable concentrate delivers outstanding crop protection across high-value agricultural, horticultural, and plantation sectors:

• Vegetables (Tomato, Chilli, Brinjal, Cabbage): Provides exceptional control against Fruit Borers, Shoot Borers, Diamondback Moths (DBM), and Fruit Worms.

• Cotton & Fiber Crops: Effectively targets American Bollworms (Helicoverpa armigera), Spotted Bollworms, Pink Bollworms, and leaf rollers.

• Pulses & Oilseeds (Soybean, Chickpea, Pigeon Pea): Controls destructive Pod Borers, Semiloopers, and Spodoptera caterpillar complexes.

• Grains & Cereals: Suppresses foliage-devouring armyworms and stem-boring pests during critical vegetative flushes.

Application Guidelines & General Best Practices

For maximum crop security, apply Hifield Teg Super at the early appearance of egg-laying activity or when young, early-stage larvae are first scouting the canopy.

• Application Method: Apply as a uniform foliar spray using sufficient water volume to ensure thorough wetting of the entire plant canopy, including the stems and lower leaf surfaces.

• Best Spraying Windows: Apply during the early morning or late afternoon hours when temperatures are cooler and wind speeds are minimal. This maximizes leaf surface retention and prevents rapid drying.

• Tank Compatibility: Fully compatible with most standard, non-alkaline fungicides, insecticides, and foliar macro/micronutrients. It is always recommended to conduct a simple jar compatibility test before mixing large quantities in a spray tank.
