KUMMANDO
Thiamethoxam 1.0% + Chlorantraniliprole 0.5% GR (Insecticide)
Description
Kummando is a granular insecticide containing Thiamethoxam 1.0% w/w and Chlorantraniliprole 0.5% w/w, specially formulated to control stem borer, leaf folder, green leaf hopper, and brown plant hopper in paddy, as well as aphids and stem borer in maize and early shoot borer in sugarcane.
The combination provides both systemic and contact action, ensuring quick knockdown and prolonged protection against multiple pests. It effectively disrupts the insect nervous system, providing superior crop protection during the most vulnerable growth stages.
Highly toxic to honeybees and aquatic invertebrates, hence it should not be applied during active foraging or near flowering crops. Avoid application near water bodies and aquaculture zones.
