How It Works: Mode of Action
Neemona works through a complex triple-action mechanism that pests cannot adapt to.
- Antifeedant: Once sprayed, the active ingredient makes the crop unpalatable. Pests lose their appetite and starve to death.
- Insect Growth Regulator (IGR): It disrupts the hormonal balance of larvae, preventing them from molting into adults.
- Oviposition Deterrent: It prevents female moths and flies from laying eggs on the treated leaves, breaking the breeding cycle.
This multi-faceted approach ensures effective control over Whiteflies, Aphids, Jassids, and Bollworms.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Cotton | Whitefly, Bollworm, Aphids |
| Paddy (Rice) | Stem Borer, Leaf Folder, BPH |
| Vegetables (Tomato, Brinjal) | Fruit Borer, Shoot Borer, Diamondback Moth |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | 1000 - 1500 ml | 200 L | 5 - 7 ml | 3 Days |
| Paddy | 1000 - 1500 ml | 200 L | 5 - 7 ml | 3 Days |
| Vegetables | 1000 ml | 150 L | 5 ml | 3 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Neemona has a very low PHI.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply as a preventive spray or at the very first sign of pest incidence. Evening spraying is recommended to avoid UV degradation.
- Mixing: Shake the bottle well before use. Mix the required quantity with a small amount of water first to create a solution, then add to the main tank.
- Coverage: Ensure thorough coverage of the foliage, especially the undersides of leaves where pests often hide.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
