Bipimain - Buprofezin 25% SC - ADAMA
Bipimain Insecticide | Buprofezin 25% SC
An insecticide and acaricide that disrupts immature pest development, with crop-specific uses against
sucking pests and mites.
Product fit: Buprofezin 25% SC for the crop-specific pest combinations below,
subject to the current Bipimain pack permissions.
What to expect: Growth-regulator action on developing pests, not a promise of
immediate adult knockdown.
Plan before use: Identify the crop, pest and its life stage, then obtain the full
application and harvest directions before treatment.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌱  Control during development: Disrupts
moulting in susceptible nymphs and larvae, helping target pests as they develop.
-
🥚  Effects on reproduction: Reduces adult egg
laying and the viability of eggs laid by treated insects; this is not a claim of complete control of every egg or adult.
-
🎯  Contact and feeding activity: Acts through
both contact and ingestion within the permitted crop–pest use.
-
🌾  Crop-specific pest choice: Provides a fit
for different sucking-pest and mite problems across cotton, chilli, mango, grapes and rice when the particular pairing is permitted on the
pack.

How It Works: Mode of Action
-
Contact or ingestion: The active ingredient acts when susceptible pests contact it or feed on treated material.
-
Chitin formation is disrupted: Buprofezin inhibits production of chitin, a structural material needed for the pest’s outer
covering.
-
Normal moulting fails: Affected nymphs and larvae cannot complete normal development into their next stage, leading to death.
Effects on development and reproduction do not establish an instant knockdown time, a fixed control period or
permission to treat every pest stage. Changing brand names does not change IRAC Group 16; plan effective alternatives with qualified
crop advice.

These crop-specific pest combinations are a guide to checking product fit, not permission to treat every listed
pest with any buprofezin product. Confirm the exact pairing on the current Bipimain pack. Do not substitute buprofezin 70% DF or a
mixture containing buprofezin.
Dosage & Application Guide
Match the crop, pest stage and full application directions
Before applying Bipimain, confirm the crop and target, application method, product quantity, water or carrier,
first-treatment stage and harvest interval together on the supplied pack. Monitor the pest and identify immature stages, but do not
turn that observation into an invented treatment threshold or calendar date.
Mango directions may use a concentration and water volume per tree rather than an acreage rate. Keep that basis
intact; do not convert tree size, pack size or another crop’s dose into a tank recipe. A missing harvest interval does not mean
immediate harvest is safe. Repeat-treatment, worker re-entry and rainfast intervals are separate restrictions, not interchangeable
numbers.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Identify the target: Check which pest is present in the crop; similar-looking damage can have another cause.
-
Keep the directions together: Use the exact pack’s method, first timing, rate, preparation and equipment instructions as one
programme. Do not assemble a treatment from unrelated products.
-
Prepare safely: Measure with suitable equipment, wear the required protection and avoid splashes. Do not use bare hands for
mixing.
-
Check mixtures: Mix with another product only when both current labels expressly permit the proposed combination for the crop and
use. Physical compatibility alone is not permission to mix.
-
Record and reassess: Record the treatment and respect harvest and re-entry restrictions. If the problem persists, seek qualified
crop advice rather than inventing a repeat interval or repeatedly using the same mode of action.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Bipimain an instant adult knockdown product?
Its growth-regulator action disrupts chitin formation and moulting in developing pests. It also affects
reproduction. Do not judge its suitability only by immediate adult mortality or expect a fixed hours-to-control guarantee.
2. Are all the listed pests treated on every crop?
No. Cotton sucking pests, chilli yellow mite, mango hoppers, grape mealybugs and rice hoppers are separate
crop–target combinations. Each must be permitted on the current Bipimain pack.
3. What do I need before measuring a dose?
The exact crop and target, product amount, water or carrier, application method, first-treatment stage and
harvest restriction must all be clear. Pack size is not an application rate, and a dose for another concentration is not a
substitute.
4. Can I use a rice acreage recipe for mango?
No. Mango directions can depend on tree size and a concentration or per-tree water basis. Follow the mango
directions rather than converting an orchard programme into an unsupported acreage or tank rate.
5. Can I repeat it or mix it with another insecticide?
Do not use a fixed repeat schedule unless the current label permits it. Mix with another product only when
both current labels expressly permit the proposed combination for the crop and use. Physical compatibility alone is not permission to
mix. Consider IRAC Group 16 when planning effective alternatives with a crop adviser.
Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it: read the supplied Indian label and leaflet before opening the pack. Use only for
a crop and target permitted on that pack, with its complete application, harvest and worker re-entry directions. Wear the

local disposal requirements.
If exposure, illness or suspected poisoning occurs, stop work and obtain prompt medical help with the
