Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits

  • ⏱️
    Stops Damage Immediately:
    While it kills pests slowly, it acts as an "Antifeedant" instantly. Pests stop eating your crop the moment they touch it.
  • 🛡️
    Breaks Resistance:
    Ideal for pests that no longer die with standard chemical sprays. It attacks the pest's hormonal system, which they cannot adapt to.
  • Stops Life Cycle:
    Acts as an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). It prevents larvae from molting and stops adults from laying fertile eggs.
  • 🌧️
    Systemic Action:
    Absorbs into the plant leaves to kill hidden pests like Stem Borers and sucking pests on the underside of leaves.
  • 🌿
    Certified Organic:
    NPOP Certified. Safe for beneficial insects (bees/ladybugs) and perfect for export crops with strict residue limits.

How It Works: Mode of Action

Azahit works differently than chemical poisons. It does not knock down pests instantly but ensures they cannot survive or reproduce.

  1. Stops Growth (IGR): It blocks the insect's molting hormone (Ecdysone). Larvae cannot shed their skin to grow, so they die trapped in their old skin.
  2. Starvation (Antifeedant): It makes the plant taste terrible to the insect. Pests stop feeding immediately and eventually die of starvation.
  3. Birth Control (Oviposition): It confuses adult moths and flies, preventing them from laying eggs on your crop.

Note: Because it is systemic, it enters the plant stem to kill borers hiding inside.

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 500 ml 200 L 2.5 ml 3-5 Days
Vegetables 500 ml 200 L 2.5 ml 3 Days
Tea Volume Based 400 L 3.0 ml 7 Days

*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.

How to Apply: Best Practices

  • Timing: Azadirachtin degrades in strong sunlight. ALWAYS spray in the late afternoon or evening for best results.
  • Mixing: It works best in slightly acidic water (pH 6.0-6.5). If your water is hard, add a little acidifier before adding Azahit.
  • Coverage: Ensure full coverage of the plant, especially the undersides of leaves where Whiteflies and Mites hide.
  • Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How is this different from regular Neem Oil?
Regular neem oil varies in quality and can be as low as 300 ppm. Azahit is refined and standardized to 10,000 ppm (1%), making it 30x stronger and more consistent than basic oils.

2. Can I mix Azahit with other chemicals?
Yes, it is compatible with most chemical insecticides (like Pyrethroids) and fungicides. Do NOT mix it with alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture.

3. How long does it take to see results?
You will see pests stop moving and feeding within 24 hours. However, total death may take 3-5 days as they fail to molt.

4. Is it safe for organic farming?
Yes, Coromandel’s facility is NPOP certified by IMO, making Azahit suitable for certified organic farming and export crops.

5. Does it kill beneficial insects?
No. When used as directed, it is generally safe for honeybees, ladybugs, and other predatory insects, making it great for IPM.
