Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Oval works by targeting the nervous system of the insect. Once the pest touches the chemical or eats a treated leaf, the active ingredient disrupts nerve signal transmission.
- Systemic Entry: The powder dissolves and is absorbed by the leaves, entering the plant's system.
- Enzyme Inhibition: It blocks Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an enzyme vital for nerve signals.
- Rapid Control: This causes continuous nerve firing, leading to paralysis and the death of the pest.
*Note: Because it is systemic, it kills pests hiding on the underside of leaves that contact sprays miss.

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)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton (Jassids) | 156 g | 200-400 L | ~0.75 g | 15 |
| Cotton (Bollworms) | 312 g | 200-400 L | ~1.5 g | 15 |
| Safflower & Rice | 300 - 400 g | 200 L | 1.5 - 2 g | 15 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Note: Dosage is in Grams (g) as Oval is a powder.
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply at the Economic Threshold Level (ETL)—e.g., when you see 2 Jassids per leaf or 5% boll damage.
- Mixing: Do NOT mix with alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture or Lime Sulphur. It is compatible with Mancozeb and Hexaconazole.
- Coverage: Ensure full coverage of the foliage. Oval moves upward in the plant, so covering the lower leaves is helpful.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Highly toxic to bees; avoid spraying during active bee foraging hours.
