Description
DANTOTSU® Insecticide is a broad-spectrum Japanese systemic insecticide powered by Clothianidin 50% WDG. It is recommended for use in sugarcane, paddy, cotton, tea and grapes. The product is a green triangle chemistry and is completely safe when used according to the recommendations of CIB & RC.
DANTOTSU® acts through oral and dermal uptake by insect pests. It binds to the acetylcholine (ACh) receptor on the post-synaptic membrane of the synapse and acts as an agonist of ACh to provide rapid insecticidal activity. It helps prevent insect pests from feeding, sucking and ovipositing while spreading quickly throughout the plant due to its systemic activity.
