Fipronil 15% + Chlorantraniliprole 5% SC
X-Factor (Fipronil 15% + Chlorantraniliprole 5% SC) is a premium combination product designed to tackle the farmer’s biggest challenge—mixed pest infestations. It blends the quick knockdown action of Fipronil with the long-lasting muscle paralysis effect of Chlorantraniliprole (CTPR), effectively controlling both chewing pests (caterpillars) and sucking insects (hoppers and thrips) in a single spray.

Benefit:
- Controls stem borer and leaf folder effectively
- Reduces crop damage
- Improves grain quality and yield
- Provides long-lasting protection
Features:
- Dual insecticide combination
- Effective against chewing pests
- Strong residual action
- Suitable for rice crops
Usage:
Timing: Apply between 30-55 days after transplanting (Tillering to Panicle Initiation stage). This period targets when mixed pest attacks (stem borer and leaf folder) are most common in rice crops.
- Mixing: Shake the bottle well before use. Pre-mix the recommended dose (e.g., 500 ml/ha product) in a small bucket of water, then pour into the spray tank for even dilution.
- Coverage: Use 150-200 liters of water per acre (approximately 375-500 L/ha, aligning closely with the 500 L/ha recommendation). Ensure thorough coverage so the insecticide penetrates the stem to effectively reach internal borers.
Safety: Avoid spraying during flowering, especially in the morning, as the product likely contains Fipronil (or a similar bee-toxic active ingredient in the combination). If needed, spray in the evening to minimize risk to pollinators like bees.
