How It Works: Mode of Action

Current branded application method, exact timing, equipment, repeat limits and re-entry directions have not all been verified. Do not apply using these figures alone or infer the route from the formulation.
Acre figures are approximate conversions of the hectare reference. PHI means the minimum interval between the last application and harvest, not a re-entry period.
No per-litre or tank dose has been calculated from area rates. An unknown cell does not mean zero or unrestricted use.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match the exact product: Confirm the brand, active ingredient, strength and formulation on the supplied Indian pack.
- Confirm the crop and target: Use only the crop–pest pairing authorised by that current pack; a formulation-level reference does not establish brand approval.
- Obtain the complete programme: Confirm method, crop stage, dose, water, equipment, repeat limit, re-entry and harvest restriction before treatment.
- Follow local restrictions: Check applicable state restrictions as well as the supplied label. Do not improvise a new application route or tank mix.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Reeva 2.5 EC contain?Lambda-cyhalothrin 2.5% EC. Check the exact strength and formulation on the supplied pack.
Which crop uses are listed here?Cotton and rice, with the pest pairings shown.
Can I use the reference table as a complete application plan?No. The numeric references are for the formulation, not a verified current branded leaflet. Confirm the crop-specific method, timing and other missing directions before use.
Can I substitute another Reeva strength?No. The 2.5% EC and 5% EC formulations have different rates and crop scopes; do not transfer their tables or substitute a CS formulation.
Is a universal tank mix or repeat interval recommended?No. Compatibility, repeat interval and maximum number of applications must come from the current pack and qualified local advice; they are not assumed here.
