Boregan G - Cartap Hydrochloride 4% GR - ADAMA
Boregan G - Cartap Hydrochloride 4% GR - ADAMA
Boregan G Insecticide | Cartap Hydrochloride 4% GR
A granular cartap insecticide for stem borer and leaf folder in rice, with systemic, contact and feeding
activity.
Crop and pests: Stem borer and leaf folder in rice. Identify the pest rather than
treating all rice insects alike.
Check the pack: Confirm ADAMA, cartap hydrochloride 4% GR and the complete granular
directions before use. Do not substitute Boregan SP.
Plan the field treatment: The product amount, permitted placement or distribution
method, field-water conditions, first timing and harvest restrictions must be clear together.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌾 Rice stem-borer use: Provides a specific
control option for stem borer in rice within the permitted programme.
-
🍃 Rice leaf-folder use: Also fits
leaf-folder management when the crop and target match the current pack.
-
🎯 Feeding disruption: Affected insects stop
feeding, helping limit further pest feeding; no fixed speed or control-duration promise is made.
-
🌱 Systemic activity: Acts systemically as
well as through contact and ingestion, without making an unlisted application method acceptable.

How It Works: Mode of Action
-
Pests encounter the active ingredient: The product has systemic, contact and stomach activity within its permitted use.
-
Insect nerve channels are affected: Cartap affects nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channels and is classified in IRAC Group
14.
-
Normal feeding is disrupted: Affected insects stop feeding and may become paralysed. Feeding cessation contributes to the product’s
pest-control activity.
The nerve-channel classification does not establish a fully explained cause for every biological effect.
Systemic activity does not authorise an unlisted route or guarantee equal control of every life stage. A relationship to nereistoxin
does not make the formulated pesticide harmless. Another cartap brand remains in IRAC Group 14; plan effective alternatives with
qualified crop advice.
Target Crops & Pests

Use only the crop and target permitted on the current supplied pack. Do not expand the treatment to every rice
insect, and do not borrow the targets or directions of Boregan SP or another cartap formulation.
Dosage & Application Guide
Rice granules: confirm placement, field water and first timing
Before measuring or distributing the product, obtain the complete granular directions for the crop and target:
product quantity, permitted placement or distribution method, any carrier, field-water conditions, first-treatment stage and harvest
interval. The word “granular” alone does not tell you where, when or how to apply it.
Do not turn these granules into a foliar spray or copy a soluble-powder programme. Do not invent a
standing-water depth, a water-holding period or a sand or fertiliser carrier. Bag weight is not a field rate. A missing harvest
interval is not permission to harvest immediately; harvest, worker re-entry and any repeat-treatment restrictions must each be
followed.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Confirm the rice pest: Distinguish stem borer from leaf folder and from other causes of crop damage.
-
Use the exact granular directions: Check cartap hydrochloride 4% GR on the supplied pack and follow its crop–target programme. Do
not substitute a concentration or route from a different product.
-
Check field conditions before application: Make sure any required field-water condition, carrier, placement and water-retention
directions are available and can be followed before treatment.
-
Handle and combine safely: Avoid dust and contact with the granules; use the specified protective equipment and never mix with bare
hands. 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 date and observe harvest and re-entry restrictions. Do not invent a repeat interval or apply more
simply because damage remains visible.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this the same as Boregan SP?
No. This item is cartap hydrochloride 4% GR, a granular formulation. Boregan SP has a different
concentration and formulation; their product weights, preparation and application directions are not interchangeable.
2. Which rice pests are covered?
Stem borer and leaf folder. Do not assume every rice insect or every larval pest is included; match the
target to the supplied pack.
3. Can I dissolve the granules and spray them?
Do not turn the granules into a foliar spray or use a soluble-powder recipe. Use only the application method
expressly permitted on the current granular pack.
4. How much standing water or carrier should I use?
Use the exact pack’s field-water and carrier directions. Do not assume a water depth, water-holding duration
or sand or fertiliser mixing ratio from another granular product. Those conditions must be settled alongside the product amount and
first-treatment timing.
5. How soon can I harvest, re-enter or repeat treatment?
These are separate restrictions. Follow each on the current pack; the harvest interval runs from final
treatment to harvest. Missing information does not mean immediate harvest or re-entry is safe, and persistent damage is not permission
for an unscheduled repeat.
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
specified protective clothing, gloves and eye and respiratory protection. Avoid skin and eye contact and inhaling dust, spray
mist, fog or vapour. Do not mix with bare hands. Do not eat, drink, smoke or chew while handling or applying the product. Wash
thoroughly and change contaminated clothing after work.
Keep the product in its original labelled container, securely closed and stored away from children, food
and feed. Follow the pack’s storage and weather precautions. Prevent drift and contamination of ponds, wells, drains and other
water sources; do not wash equipment or discard residues into them. Never reuse empty pesticide containers. Follow the label and
local disposal requirements.
If exposure, illness or suspected poisoning occurs, stop work and obtain prompt medical help with the
product label. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person or induce vomiting unless directed by a medical
professional.
