NICATARA GOLD – Thiamethoxam 75% W/W SG

NICATARA GOLD – Thiamethoxam 75% W/W SG is a highly concentrated, systemic insecticide formulated as a soluble granule (SG). Belonging to the neonicotinoid group, it provides powerful protection against a wide range of sucking and chewing insect pests in crops such as cereals, pulses, vegetables, fruits, and oilseeds. NICATARA GOLD offers excellent systemic action, ensuring thorough protection by translocating within the plant, resulting in improved seedling establishment, plant vigor, and high yield potential.

Mode of Action

• Neonicotinoid Action: Binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect’s central nervous system → overstimulation of nerve cells → paralysis and death.

• Systemic Movement: Absorbed by roots and leaves → distributed throughout the plant → protects both treated and new growth.

• Preventive & Curative Action: Controls insect pests early and continues protection during crop growth.

Benefits

• High Concentration Formulation – Provides effective pest control with lower dosage.

• Wide-spectrum Control – Effective against aphids, whiteflies, thrips, jassids, leafhoppers, mealybugs, and other sucking and chewing pests.

• Systemic & Long Residual Protection – Safeguards plant from early stages up to 20–30 days.

• Improves Crop Yield & Quality – Minimizes pest damage, ensuring healthy growth and better harvest.

• Resistance Management – Unique mode of action helps reduce insect resistance development.

• Crop Safety – Safe for use on a variety of crops when used as recommended.

Recommendations

• Crops: Paddy, wheat, maize, pulses, vegetables, fruits, and oilseeds.
