Profenofos 50% EC - All Products

What is Profenofos 50% EC?

Profenofos 50% EC is a broad-spectrum insecticide formulation used for managing insect pests in agricultural crops. It contains Profenofos 50% EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate) as the active ingredient and belongs to the organophosphate group of insecticides. It works through contact and stomach action by affecting the nervous system of susceptible insects. Profenofos 50% EC exhibits both ovicidal (egg-killing) and larvicidal action, along with translaminar activity that allows it, when sprayed on the upper leaf surface, to percolate down to the lower surface, offering coverage against pests hiding underneath leaves. It is used primarily in cotton to control bollworms, jassids, aphids, thrips, and whitefly, and in soybean to control semi looper and girdle beetle; it is also used in crops such as chilli and onion.

Key Features and Benefits of Profenofos 50% EC Insecticide

• Broad-spectrum activity: It controls both sucking pests (aphids, jassids, thrips, whitefly) and chewing pests (bollworms, semi looper), covering multiple pest categories with one active ingredient.
• Translaminar action: When sprayed on the leaf's upper surface, it moves down to the lower surface, helping control pests that hide on the underside of leaves.
• Ovicidal and larvicidal action: In addition to affecting active pest stages, it is associated with some effect on pest eggs, supporting longer-term suppression.
• Fast knockdown with residual activity: It is associated with quick paralysis of contacted or feeding pests, along with lasting protection over time.
• Rain-resistant absorption: Being readily absorbed into plant cells, it is less likely to be washed off by rainfall shortly after application.

Profenofos 50% EC may be available as both single-active and combination products. The performance and benefits of a specific product depend on its formulation, concentration, target, crop, application timing, and other label-specific factors.
