How It Works: Mode of Action
Emamectin benzoate belongs to IRAC Group 6, which acts on glutamate-gated chloride channels in the insect nervous system.
-
Leaf exposure: Apply only by the route and coverage instructions on the crop label.
-
Nerve-channel action: The active ingredient affects glutamate-gated chloride channels.
-
Pest response: Disrupted nerve signalling causes paralysis in susceptible insects.
Abamectin, emamectin benzoate, lepimectin and milbemectin are all in IRAC Group 6. Changing between them or between emamectin brands is not a different-group rotation. Follow label and local resistance-management guidance.

Dosage & Application Guide
Use the complete crop-specific directions supplied with the Bioclaim pack before measuring or mixing product.
Application Requirements
Check the product quantity and its units, treated area, water volume, application method and timing together. Do not calculate a litre or pump dose from pack size.
Follow your crop’s pre-harvest interval, measured from the final application to harvest. Export growers must also meet destination-market residue limits and the current APEDA or buyer programme.
Do not make a universal per-litre or pump dose from an area rate. Use the complete crop-specific label programme; do not borrow a rate, interval or application method from another formulation.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Match the crop and pest: Choose only a crop-target pair permitted by the supplied label.
-
Confirm the full dose: Check product unit, area, water volume and equipment before mixing.
-
Use the label timing: Follow the label’s crop stage, repeat interval, maximum spray count and rainfast instructions.

Keep the harvest interval: Use the interval for your exact crop and pack, not one borrowed from another crop.
