Pymetrozine 50% WG insecticide for brown plant hopper in rice
(paddy). It stops the pest from feeding and moves within the plant.

Treatment timing: Begin at the initial infestation when it reaches the economic
threshold for treatment, with a maximum of two sprays.
Harvest planning: Leave at least 19 days between the last spray and
harvest.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🎯 Focused hopper control: Protects rice
against brown plant hopper.
-
🛑 Stops feeding: Affected hoppers stop
feeding and die gradually, rather than all falling immediately after spraying.
-
🌿 Movement within the plant: Systemic and
leaf-penetrating activity helps reach pests that the spray does not hit directly.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Pymetrozine interferes with the insect’s feeding behaviour.
Feeding stops before the insect dies.
-
Feeding disruption: Brown plant hoppers stop taking sap after exposure and die gradually.
-
Inside the plant and leaf: The product moves within the plant and penetrates leaves, helping it reach hoppers not directly hit by
spray.
-
Resistance planning: Pymetrozine belongs to IRAC Group 9B. Plan rotations with a qualified adviser using effective products from
different groups, rather than changing brand names alone.

Dosage & Application Guide
Use the current pack’s complete rice and brown plant hopper
directions for product quantity and water volume. The pack weight is not a mixing recipe.
Application Requirements
First treatment and repeats: Start at the initial
infestation when it reaches the economic threshold for treatment. Get local advice on that threshold. Apply no more than two sprays;
repeat only if needed for pest incidence.
Harvest and entry: Wait at least 19 days after the last
spray before harvesting rice. Follow the supplied pack’s separate worker-entry restrictions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Check the field: Identify brown plant hopper and check whether the infestation has reached the treatment threshold. Do not spray
only because a calendar date has arrived.
-
Prepare the spray: Measure the pack-directed quantity, mix it with a little water, then gradually add the remaining required water.
Stir with a stick, not your hands, and never use cooking utensils.
-
Use suitable equipment: Apply onto the crop with a knapsack sprayer. Keep spray and washings away from water sources and avoid
inhaling dust or mist.
-
Check a proposed mixture: Confirm the exact fungicide partner against both current labels before mixing. A general compatibility
claim does not approve every tank mixture.
-
Record the treatment: Record the spray date and the 19-day harvest interval, and stay within the maximum of two sprays.
Frequently Asked Questions
Brown plant hopper in rice (paddy). Do not use this description to extend treatment to other crops or hopper species.
Pyramit stops feeding and the affected insects die gradually. Visible insects immediately after treatment do not, by themselves, establish that a repeat spray is needed.
At the initial infestation when it reaches the economic threshold for treatment. A qualified local adviser can help assess the threshold; the maximum is two sprays.
Check the exact partner and both current labels before mixing. Do not assume every fungicide, additive or mixture is suitable.
Allow at least 19 days between the last spray and rice harvest. Worker-entry restrictions are separate and must also be followed.
Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it: Read the supplied label and leaflet, and follow the complete crop-specific
directions, protective measures and entry restrictions. Use only for rice brown plant hopper, with no more than two sprays and
a 19-day interval from the last spray to harvest.
Suspected of causing cancer. Harmful to aquatic life with long-lasting effects. May irritate skin and
eyes or cause a skin allergy. Dust can form a combustible mixture in air. Avoid breathing dust or spray mist and avoid contact
with skin, eyes and clothing. Wear label-specified protective clothing, chemical-resistant gloves, boots and eye protection;
use respiratory protection when required by the label or exposure conditions. Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling. Wash
exposed skin, gloves and contaminated clothing after work, and keep children, animals and unprotected people

reaching drains or water bodies. Never reuse empty containers; follow the label and authorised local disposal
requirements.
If exposure or illness occurs, stop work and seek urgent medical advice with the container or label.
Move away from contaminated air, remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin with soap and water. Rinse exposed eyes
with clean water for 15–20 minutes. Do not induce vomiting, give anything by mouth to an unconscious person or attempt an
antidote yourself.
