How It Works: Mode of Action
Certacor GR contains chlorantraniliprole, a ryanodine receptor modulator. It disrupts calcium regulation needed for normal insect muscle function.
- Receptor action: Chlorantraniliprole acts on insect ryanodine receptors.
- Muscle disruption: Altered calcium release disrupts normal muscle activity in susceptible insects.
- Targeted crop use: The manufacturer lists separate rice and sugarcane pest programmes.
Changing brand names does not necessarily change the mode of action. Follow a crop-specific resistance-management plan and all limits on repeat applications.

| Crop | Target Pest(s) |

Dosage & Application Guide
The public Certacor GR table uses a combined kg/ml per-hectare heading without identifying the product unit in either row. Obtain the complete pack directions before measuring product.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Product rate | Water volume | Method | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rice (paddy) | Confirm label unit | Confirm label basis | Follow label | Not verified |
| Sugarcane | Confirm label unit | Confirm label basis | Follow label | Not verified |
Mahindra lists separate numerical programmes for rice and sugarcane. No quantity or acre conversion is supplied from the ambiguous kg/ml heading. The public table does not establish application method or field-water management.
PHI means the interval between the last application and harvest. An unverified waiting period does not mean zero days.
Confirm crop stage, equipment, repeat interval, maximum applications, re-entry and weather restrictions. No universal per-litre or tank recipe is inferred.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match the target: Check the full Certacor GR identity, crop and target against the supplied label.
- Measure correctly: Use the label’s explicit product unit and water volume; do not substitute a hectare quantity for an acre quantity.
- Follow the approved method: Use only the preparation, equipment and application route specified on the pack. Do not assume a tank mixture is permitted.
- Protect people and water: Wear the specified protective equipment and prevent drift or runoff into water and neighbouring crops.
