Dantotsu Insecticide by Sumitomo
Dantotsu is Sumitomo’s clothianidin 50% WDG systemic insecticide. Clothianidin belongs to IRAC Group 4A, and Sumitomo describes oral and contact uptake by susceptible insect pests. Application method is crop-specific.
Active ingredient: Clothianidin 50% WDG, IRAC Group 4A.
Crop-specific approach: Spray and soil-drench directions are not interchangeable.
Cotton programme: Follow the supplied label’s exact crop–pest–method programme.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-

-
🌾 Paddy programme: The official page pairs paddy with brown plant hopper and a spray programme.
-
🍇 Distinct soil-drench use: Grape mealybugs, thrips and jassids are paired with soil drenching, not a borrowed foliar recipe.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Clothianidin belongs to IRAC Group 4A. Sumitomo describes oral or contact uptake by pests and binding to acetylcholine receptors on the post-synaptic membrane.
-
Pest exposure: The manufacturer describes oral and contact uptake of clothianidin.
-
Receptor modulation: It acts at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and disrupts normal nerve signalling.
-
Feeding and control response: The manufacturer describes effects on feeding, sucking and egg laying in susceptible pests; this is not a guarantee for every crop or pest.
A change of brand does not necessarily change the mode of action. Use label-compliant resistance-management guidance; this overview does not prescribe a mixture or rotation partner.

Dosage & Application Guide
Application Requirements
Use only a complete programme from the supplied label for the intended crop or site and target. Keep product quantity, water volume, application method, timing and waiting periods together.
Follow the supplied label’s crop-stage and pollinator precautions. Do not treat a general product description as permission to spray during flowering.
Spray and soil-drench directions are not interchangeable. Confirm the exact crop, pest and route before selecting a treatment; do not transfer directions from another crop or application method.
Before treatment, obtain the complete supplied-label programme, including harvest and re-entry intervals and application limits. For cotton, use only the exact crop–pest–method directions on that label; do not select a route or quantity from the other crop descriptions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Read the complete directions: Use the supplied label and leaflet for the intended crop or site, target, product amount, water, method and timing before measuring or applying.
-
Keep the programme together: Use the matching crop-specific instructions for preparation, equipment, coverage and application limits. Do not combine instructions from different crops, sources or formulations.
-
Plan access and harvest: Follow the label’s harvest and re-entry intervals. A dry spray deposit or dry foliage alone does not establish safe entry.
-
Check any proposed mixture: Do not assume tank-mix or additive compatibility. Follow the exact labels and obtain product-specific technical advice before combining products.
-
Cover the crop correctly: Sumitomo stresses complete coverage and morning or evening spraying where a spray is permitted. Follow the label’s pollinator and crop-stage precautions.
The catalogue records 50 g and 100 g pack options. Confirm your selected option and delivered formulation, label, seal, batch/date and quantity. A recorded option does not confirm current availability or treatment area.
