How It Works: Mode of Action
Emamectin benzoate affects nerve and muscle function in insects. IRAC classifies it as a Group 6 glutamate-gated chloride-channel modulator.
- Target channel: Acts on glutamate-gated chloride channels.
- Nerve and muscle effect: Disrupts normal signalling and muscle function in susceptible pests.
- Crop programme: Follow the exact labelled target and dose for the crop rather than a universal caterpillar treatment.
A product’s mode of action does not establish a use on an unlisted crop or guarantee control of resistant pests. Follow a suitable resistance-management programme.
