Polo Insecticide
InsecticidesSyngenta Polo Insecticide: The Ultimate Solution for Sucking Pests
Combat resistant Whiteflies, Aphids, and Mites with the power of Diafenthiuron.
Syngenta Polo is a powerful broad-spectrum insecticide designed specifically for cotton and vegetable farmers facing hard-to-kill pests. When standard sprays fail against resistant Whiteflies and Mites, Polo steps in. It uses a unique "Vapor Action" to reach pests hiding under leaves, providing deep cleaning and long-lasting protection for your crop.
Note: This is a potent chemical. Strict safety precautions and protective gear are mandatory during application.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Polo works as a "Pro-Insecticide," meaning it becomes powerful after it touches the plant.
- Sunlight Activation: Upon spraying, sunlight (UV rays) activates the chemical, converting it into its toxic form.
- Energy Blockage: It stops the insect's ability to produce energy (ATP) in its cells, causing paralysis.
- Stop-Feeding Effect: The pest stops eating immediately and dies within 2 to 4 days due to starvation and energy failure.
Because of its vapor action, it creates a fumigation effect inside the crop canopy, reaching pests that sprays usually 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 (gm / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (gm / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | 250 g | 200-300 L | 1.25 g | 21 |
| Cabbage | 250 g | 200-300 L | 1.25 g | 7 |
| Chilli | 250 g | 200-300 L | 1.25 g | 3-6 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Note: Dosage is in Grams (gm) as this is a Wettable Powder.
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Spray at the "Early Threshold" stage (when pests just start appearing). Do not wait for a full outbreak.
- Mixing: Ensure the powder is fully dissolved in water. Do not mix with highly alkaline substances.
- Coverage: Ensure uniform coverage. The "vapor action" helps, but good spraying technique is still vital.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Avoid spraying in high heat to reduce inhalation risks from vapor.
Use with careSafety & Disclaimer

Yes, it is highly effective against mites (acaricide) as well as whiteflies, aphids, and jassids.
2. Is there an antidote for Polo (Diafenthiuron)?
No, there is no specific antidote known for this chemical. Treatment is symptomatic. Prevention and wearing a mask are critical.
3. How long does the result last?
Due to its residual action, Polo can provide protection for several days (up to a week or more depending on weather), unlike contact-only sprays.
4. Can I use Polo if it is about to rain?
No. Polo needs at least 6 hours of rain-free weather after spraying to be absorbed effectively by the plant.
