PYRIPROXYFEN 10.8% EC is an advanced, targeted insecticide developed by Agraicy Life Sciences for superior management of persistent sucking pests. Its active ingredient, Pyriproxyfen, belongs to the class of Juvenile Hormone Mimics (Insect Growth Regulators – IGRs). This formulation ($10.8\% \text{ w/v}$ EC) works uniquely by mimicking the insect’s natural juvenile hormone, which regulates molting and development.
Mechanism of Action & Efficacy:
Pyriproxyfen disrupts the insect’s life cycle at crucial stages, preventing larvae from pupating and sterilizing adult females, leading to the collapse of the pest population. This makes it exceptionally effective against multi-stage pests like Whitefly (as shown on the label), Aphids, Jassids, and Thrips.
Targeted Use:
While the product is highly effective on Whitefly (a common pest in cotton, vegetables, and tobacco), it is an excellent tool for Integrated Pest Management (IPM) on various crops. Given the general crops mentioned (tobacco, wheat, sugarcane, maize), its primary use would be in Tobacco where Whitefly is a major vector for viral diseases. It provides long-residual control and is a critical tool for resistance management.
To strengthen the agricultural economy of Pakistan by providing solution based products to grow more food and reduce poverty.
