Topmaxx
Topmaxx (Pymetrozine 50% WG)
Topmaxx is a highly effective systemic and translaminar insecticide known for its superior control of brown plant hoppers (BPH). It effectively targets all life stages of the pest, paralyzing the insects, inhibiting egg-laying, and ultimately causing their death due to starvation. Its unique chemistry ensures lasting protection and control, making it an essential tool for managing BPH infestations in rice and other crops.
Mode of Action:
Pymetrozine 50% WG is an insecticide that selectively inhibits the feeding behaviour of sucking pests like brown plant hoppers (BPH). It disrupts the insect's nervous system, blocking feeding signals, leading to paralysis, starvation, and death. With systemic and translaminar activity, it is absorbed and translocated throughout the plant, ensuring effective protection of both aerial and root tissues.
