Product details
Double Star Insecticide by Synergy Agro Chemicals
An acephate and imidacloprid soluble-powder product. Four crop-pest programmes are shown as qualified formulation references because the current brand table is incomplete.
Composition: Acephate 50% + imidacloprid 1.8% SP.
Crop fit: Four qualified formulation crop references; current brand quantities remain unverified.
Reference only: Crop tables do not replace the current Synergy pack directions.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits

- 🧴Soluble-powder format: This is the 1.8% imidacloprid SP mixture, not the 5% WG mixture.
- 🍃Manufacturer route stated: Synergy describes foliar spraying, subject to the exact crop programme.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Acephate inhibits acetylcholinesterase. Imidacloprid acts at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. These effects interfere with normal insect nerve signalling.
- Exposure: Susceptible pests encounter the labelled treatment.
- Two nerve effects: The actives interfere with acetylcholinesterase and nicotinic receptors.
- Pest response: Abnormal nerve signalling disrupts normal insect activity.
Use the current label and local resistance-management advice. A second active ingredient or a change of brand does not guarantee that resistance will be prevented.
Crop & Pest Formulation References
The crop and pest table is a historical exact-formulation reference, not verified current authorization for this Synergy brand. Check every proposed use against the supplied current label before application.
| Crop | Reference pests |
|---|---|
| Cotton |
|
| Rice |
|
| Sugarcane |
|
| Chilli |
|
The historical entry provides these four crop-pest pairings. The current page’s merged list of cereals, fruits and vegetables does not authorize additional programmes. In particular, confirm the route for sugarcane soil pests rather than applying the general foliar statement to them.
Dosage & Application Guide
Reference figures below come from the specifically identified sources, not a complete current Synergy brand label. Confirm the current crop, amount, water, route and waiting period before treatment.
Qualified References & Current Label Checks
| Crop | Comparison dose | Reference L / Acre | Current dilution | Reference PHI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | 404.7 g/acre* | 202.3 | Confirm* | 40 (ref.) |
| Rice | 404.7 g/acre* | 202.3 | Confirm* | 30 (ref.) |
| Sugarcane | Confirm* | 202.3 | Confirm* | 123 (ref.) |
| Chilli | Confirm* | 202.3 | Confirm* | 3 (ref.) |
Cotton and rice quantities are comparison references from UPL’s Lancer Gold label for the identical formulation: 1,000 g/ha product and 500 L/ha water, equivalent to about 404.7 g/acre and 202.3 L/acre. They are not verified Double Star directions. Reference PHIs are UPL’s 40 days for cotton and 30 for rice; sugarcane 123 and chilli 3 come from the historical formulation compilation. Sugarcane and chilli water references are the historical entry’s 500 L/ha, approximately 202.3 L/acre; they are not current Double Star instructions.
*Reference does not mean a current brand recommendation. “Confirm” means the required instruction has not been established here. Do not construct a tank recipe or choose a harvest date from incomplete references.
The current Double Star table lacks a clear product-area denominator and has a malformed water heading. Its 1,000 product and 500 water numbers are not converted. Confirm the current label before treatment; do not transfer another brand’s route, crop stage, repeat count or re-entry interval.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Application route: Foliar spray stated by Synergy; confirm each crop-specific route.
- Match the treatment: Use the named crop and target, and follow the crop and pest or disease stage stated on the supplied pack.
- Mixing and coverage: Use the labelled equipment and water instructions. Do not assume that this product can be mixed with another pesticide.
- Before treatment: Resolve every missing or conflicting direction, including waiting periods and re-entry requirements.
