Sargent Xpress Insecticide (Fipronil 0.6% GR) by IIL

The "Maharatna" solution for superior Stem Borer and Leaf Folder control in Rice and Sugarcane.

Sargent Xpress is a high-power, granular insecticide manufactured by Insecticides (India) Limited. It features an advanced Fipronil 0.6% GR formulation, designed to work faster and more efficiently than older 0.3% versions.

Sargent Xpress provides dual benefits: it eliminates tough pests like the Yellow Stem Borer through contact and systemic action, while simultaneously boosting crop health with a unique Phytotonic effect—resulting in greener plants and stronger roots.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action

Sargent Xpress works by targeting the insect's central nervous system. [Image of Fipronil mode of action diagram GABA receptor]

  1. Ingestion & Contact: The pest comes into contact with the granules or feeds on the treated plant.
  2. Nerve Blockage: Fipronil blocks the GABA-gated chloride channels in the insect's nerve cells.
  3. Elimination: This blockage causes hyperexcitation of the nerves, leading to paralysis and the death of the insect.

Note: The "Xpress" formulation ensures the active ingredient is released quickly from the sand carrier when it hits water.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
  • Timing (Rice): Apply 15-30 days after transplanting or when "Dead Heart" symptoms first appear.
  • Mixing: Mix the 4 kg of Sargent Xpress granules with 50 kg of dry sand to ensure uniform distribution across the acre.
  • Coverage: Maintain 2-3 cm of standing water in the field for 2-3 days after application. This allows the chemical to dissolve and reach the roots effectively.
  • Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
