This is your complete guide to using Coragen effectively, safely, and profitably to achieve maximum yield potential.
Why Choose Coragen®? Key Benefits
⏱️ RAPID ACTION: Pests stop feeding within minutes of ingestion. This immediately halts crop damage, protecting your yield long before the pest is dead.
?️ BROAD-SPECTRUM CONTROL: Provides a powerful, "one-shot" solution for a wide array of devastating Lepidopteran (caterpillar) pests, simplifying your pest control program.
⏳ LONG-LASTING PROTECTION: Delivers extended residual activity, protecting the crop for up to 14-21 days after a single application, reducing the total number of sprays per season.
?️ SUPERIOR RAINFASTNESS: Its unique translaminar action moves the product into the plant tissue, making it rain-safe within 2 hours of application.
? THE IPM CHAMPION (GREEN LABEL): Coragen is a "Green Label" product with a high safety profile. It is selective, meaning it is safe for most beneficial insects (natural predators) and pollinators (like bees) when used as per label directions.

How Coragen® Works: The 3-Way Action
Coragen's power comes from its unique Group 28 mode of action. It targets insect muscles (Ryanodine Receptors) in a way older insecticides don't.
Ingestion & Contact: While most effective when ingested, it also has contact action.
Muscle Activation: It "locks" insect muscles in an open position, causing an uncontrolled release of calcium.
Rapid Feeding Cessation: This leads to immediate muscle paralysis. Pests stop feeding in minutes, halting crop damage.
Its translaminar action allows it to move from the top of the leaf to the underside, controlling hidden pests and making it rainfast.

Master Guide: Coragen® Dosage & Application
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. The "Dose per Litre" is a calculation based on the total water volume used.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Rice | 60 ml | 200 L | 0.3 ml | 37-47 |
Cotton | 60 ml | 200 L | 0.3 ml | 9 |
Maize (FAW) | 80 ml | 200 L | 0.4 ml | 10 |
Chilli & Tomato | 60 ml | 200 L | 0.3 ml | 3 |
Brinjal | 80 ml | 200 L | 0.4 ml | 3 |
Cabbage | 20 ml | 200 L | 0.1 ml | 3 |
Bengal Gram | 50 ml | 200 L | 0.25 ml | 11 |
PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
Specialist Application: Sugarcane Drenching
At Planting (Soil Drench): To control Termites and Early Shoot Borer, apply 100-120 ml per acre as a soil drench over the cane setts in the furrow.
After Planting (Foliar Spray): To control Top Borer, apply 75 ml per acre as a standard foliar spray.
How to Apply: Best Practices
Timing: Spray at the first sign of pest infestation, targeting newly hatched larvae. Do not wait for large populations.
Mixing: Fill the tank 50% with water, add the measured Coragen, agitate, and then add the remaining water.
Coverage: Ensure thorough coverage of the plant foliage. Use a high-volume sprayer (e.g., 200 Litres/acre).
Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not eat or drink while spraying.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the dose of Coragen per litre? It varies by crop. The most common doses are 0.3 ml/L (for Cotton, Rice, Chilli) and 0.4 ml/L (for Maize). Always check the per-acre dose first.
2. Is Coragen systemic or contact? It's all three! It works on contact, is most powerful by ingestion, and has translaminar/systemic properties, moving through the leaf to protect unsprayed areas.
3. How fast does Coragen work? Instantly. Pests stop feeding within minutes of ingestion, so crop damage stops immediately.
4. How long is Coragen rainfast? It is rainfast within 2 hours of application.
5. Is Coragen harmful to bees? No. Coragen is a "Green Label" product and is safe for bees and beneficial insects when used as per the label directions (e.g., not spraying during active foraging).
