Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Himida operates by targeting the central nervous system of insects, specifically acting as an antagonist to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
- Uptake: Upon application, the active ingredient is rapidly absorbed by the plant surface (leaves) or roots.
- Translocation: It moves systemically through the plant's xylem tissues, reaching new growth and hidden areas.
- Paralysis: When pests suck the treated sap, the chemical blocks nerve signal transmission, causing paralysis and eventual death.
This mode of action is particularly effective against pests that have developed resistance to conventional organophosphates and pyrethroids.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Do not under-dose as it may lead to pest resistance.
How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | 40 - 50 ml | 200 L | 0.25 ml | 40 |
| Paddy | 40 - 50 ml | 150 - 200 L | 0.3 ml | 40 |
| Chilli | 50 - 100 ml | 200 L | 0.3 - 0.5 ml | 40 |
| Sugarcane | 140 ml | 400 L | 0.35 ml | 45 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Spray immediately when pest incidence (ETL - Economic Threshold Level) is observed. For prevention, spray during the early vegetative stage.
- Mixing: Fill the spray tank with half the required water. Add the measured quantity of Himida. Stir well, then add the remaining water.
- Coverage: Ensure thorough coverage of the foliage. Since it is systemic, soil drenching near the root zone is also highly effective for some crops.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Avoid spraying during peak bee activity (flowering stage).
