Fisto 0.3G Insecticide (Fipronil 0.3% GR): The Ultimate Shield for Rice & Sugarcane

Advanced "New Generation" Granular Protection Against Hidden Stem Borers and Termites.

Fisto 0.3G by Nichino India is a powerful systemic insecticide designed to protect your crops from the inside out. Unlike sprays that wash away, these granules release Fipronil directly into the soil, where it is absorbed by the roots and moves up the plant. It effectively targets hard-to-reach pests like the Yellow Stem Borer in Rice and Termites in Sugarcane and Wheat, ensuring your crop stays healthy and green.

Best For: Farmers facing "Dead Heart" issues in Paddy, Termite attacks in Wheat, or Shoot Borers in Sugarcane.

Why farmers choose itWhy Choose This Product? Key Benefits
  • ⏱️ 30-45 Days of Protection: One application provides long-lasting residual control, covering the critical vegetative stage where crops are most vulnerable.
  • ?️ Systemic Action: The medicine is absorbed by the roots and travels up the stem, killing internal borers that surface sprays cannot reach.
  • ⏳ Stops "Dead Heart": By applying early (15-30 days after transplanting), it prevents larvae from cutting the central shoot, saving your yield.
  • ?️ Monsoon Ready: Unlike liquid sprays, these granules are applied to soil/water and are not easily washed away by rain.
  • ? Phytotonic Effect (Green Booster): Promotes vigorous root development and increases chlorophyll, resulting in visibly greener plants and more productive tillers.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action

Fipronil targets the central nervous system of insects with a unique mechanism that works even on pests resistant to older chemicals.

  1. Systemic Uptake: Once applied to the soil, the granules dissolve. The active ingredient is absorbed by plant roots and transported up the stem through the xylem.
  2. Ingestion & Contact: When the Stem Borer or Termite feeds on the treated plant or comes into contact with the soil, they ingest the toxin.
  3. Nervous System Blockade: Fipronil blocks the GABA-gated chloride channels in the insect's nerves. This causes hyperexcitation, paralysis, and death of the pest, stopping damage immediately.

Note: This unique action makes it an excellent tool for Resistance Management (IRM).

How to applyDosage & Application Guide

The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Since this is a granule product, it is broadcasted, not sprayed.

How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
CropDose (kg / Acre)Water ConditionDose (ml / Litre)PHI (Days)
Rice (Paddy)6.6 - 10 kgStanding Water (2-3 cm)N/A (Broadcast)32 Days
Sugarcane10 - 13.3 kgMoist Soil (Basal)N/A (Broadcast)9 Months
Wheat8 - 10 kgMoist SoilN/A (Broadcast)91 Days

*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last application and harvesting. N/A (Broadcast) indicates this is a solid granule product, not a liquid spray.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
  • Timing (Rice): Apply between 15 to 30 Days After Transplanting (DAT) for maximum "Dead Heart" protection.
  • Mixing: Mix granules with Sand or Fertilizer (Urea) to ensure uniform distribution across the field. Mix immediately before use.
  • Coverage (Paddy): Maintain 2-3 cm of standing water in the field. Keep the water outlet closed (impounded) for 2-3 days after application to let the granules dissolve completely.
  • Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do NOT use in rice-fish farming systems as it is toxic to fish.
