Onions Pro 50% WG
Flunicamide 50% WG
Product Overview
Onions Pro 50% WG is a highly effective feeding inhibitor and systemic insecticide specifically formulated for the control of thrips in onion crops. Its targeted action ensures minimal disruption to beneficial insects while providing robust protection against thrips infestations, leading to healthier plants and higher yields.
Active Ingredient
Flonicamid: A highly effective insecticide that disrupts the feeding behavior of thrips, leading to their eventual demise. Its systemic action ensures thorough protection throughout the plant.
Application and Dosage
Onions Pro 50% WG is applied as a foliar spray. The precise dosage will depend on the severity of the infestation and the growth stage of the onion plants. Always follow the instructions on the product label carefully. For optimal results, apply the product as a preventative measure or at the first sign of thrips activity. Multiple applications may be necessary depending on the infestation pressure and environmental conditions. Thorough coverage of the plant foliage is crucial for effective control.
Mechanism of Action
Onions Pro 50% WG works by inhibiting the feeding behavior of thrips. Flonicamid, the active ingredient, interferes with the insect's nervous system, causing paralysis and ultimately death. This systemic action ensures that the insecticide is distributed throughout the plant, providing long-lasting protection against thrips. The product's effectiveness is enhanced by its ability to penetrate the plant tissues, making it less susceptible to wash-off from rain or irrigation.
