Imicon Insecticide (Imidacloprid 17.8% SL) by Nichino India

The ultimate systemic solution for sucking pests in Cotton, Paddy, and Vegetables.

Imicon is a premium liquid insecticide manufactured by Nichino India, featuring superior Japanese formulation technology. It contains Imidacloprid 17.8% SL, a powerful active ingredient that protects your crops from damaging pests like Aphids, Jassids, Thrips, and Whiteflies. Unlike standard sprays, Imicon works from the inside out, traveling through the plant to kill pests that are hiding under leaves or attacking the roots.

Best For: Farmers looking for long-duration control against hopper burn in Paddy and sucking pest complexes in Cotton and Chillies.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action

Imicon acts as a stomach and contact poison with a unique "Agonist" mechanism.

  1. Absorption & Transport: When sprayed, Imicon is absorbed by the plant and moves upwards (acropetally) through the xylem to stems and tips.
  2. Nervous System Attack: It targets the pest's central nervous system by binding to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
  3. Paralysis & Death: This causes uncontrolled nerve firing and tremors. The pest stops feeding instantly, becomes paralyzed, and eventually dies.

Note: Because it moves inside the plant, it effectively kills vectors that spread viral diseases like Leaf Curl Virus.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide

The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.

How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)

*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Note that Sugarcane treatment is soil drench or sett dipping.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
  • Timing: Apply at the early stages of pest infestation (e.g., when you first see jassid symptoms or "hopper burn" signs).
  • Mixing: Do not mix with highly alkaline chemicals. Imicon is generally compatible with most other pesticides.
  • Coverage: Ensure thorough coverage of the foliage. For sucking pests, try to direct the nozzle to reach the underside of leaves.
  • Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Highly toxic to bees—avoid spraying during active bee foraging hours.
Use with careSafety & Disclaimer
