Product details
Shinzen Plus Insecticide by IFFCO-MC
Fipronil 5% SC for the listed pests in cabbage, chilli, paddy, sugarcane and cotton. Crop quantities are documented, but the brand’s conflicting application-route wording must be resolved before use.
Active ingredient: Fipronil 5% SC.
Crop fit: Cabbage, Chilli, Paddy, Sugarcane, Cotton.
Before applying: Resolve the conflicting brand application-route directions before use.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🎯Five-crop scope: Crop-specific guidance covers cabbage, chilli, paddy, sugarcane and cotton.
- 📏Separate cotton programmes: Sucking pests and bollworm are not assigned the same quantity by default.
- ⚙️Defined mechanism: IRAC 2B identifies fipronil’s nerve action.
- 🔎Unit verification: The malformed retail unit is cross-checked, not silently assumed.
- 📅Month-versus-day clarity: Sugarcane’s branded waiting period is explicitly nine months.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Fipronil blocks GABA-gated chloride channels in insect nerve systems. Its contact and ingestion activity disrupts normal nerve signalling in susceptible pests.
- Confirm the application route: Do not select a method until the supplied Shinzen Plus label resolves the brand-page conflict.
- Reach susceptible pests: The active acts through contact and feeding under an appropriate labelled programme.
- Disrupt nerve signalling: GABA-channel blockade interferes with normal insect function.
Use this product within a resistance-management programme. Switching brand names does not necessarily change the mode of action.
Target Crops & Pests
The following crop and target pairings are listed by IFFCO. Keep each programme with its own crop.
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Cabbage |
|
| Chilli |
|
| Paddy |
|
| Sugarcane |
|
| Cotton |
|
Cotton A means aphids, jassids, thrips and whitefly; Cotton B means bollworm. All quantities remain paired with those separate targets. No crop-specific route is imported from another brand.
Dosage & Application Guide
These published crop quantities are not a complete application programme: the exact Shinzen Plus route remains unresolved. Confirm the current pack before using any row.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Per litre | PHI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cabbage | 320–400* | 200 | Not given | 7 days |
| Chilli | 320–400* | 200 | Not given | 7 days |
| Paddy | 400–600* | 200 | Not given | 32 days |
| Sugarcane | 600–800* | 200 | Not given | 9 months |
| Cotton A | 600–800* | 200 | Not given | 6 days |
| Cotton B | 800* | 200 | Not given | Confirm |
*Bazar’s product-unit heading is malformed as “m”. The manufacturer independently states a 320–800 ml/acre range; an explicit-ml registered fipronil 5% SC leaflet corroborates the crop quantities. The displayed figures are Bazar’s rounded acre values, not exact hectare conversions.
Sugarcane is nine months in the branded source, not nine days. Cotton bollworm’s six-versus-seven-day PHI conflict is held. Water is the published 200 L/acre figure, but the complete route and method must be confirmed.
Confirm crop-stage timing, equipment, mixing sequence, repeat interval, maximum applications, rainfast time and re-entry directions on the supplied pack. Do not increase the rate or improvise a tank mix.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match the exact formulation: Use Shinzen Plus 5% SC, not either Shinzen granular strength.
- Resolve the route before applying: The manufacturer’s structured field says broadcast, while its prose and IFFCO Bazar describe spray. Obtain the current pack’s crop-specific method.
- Use only verified quantities: The starred rates are transparently cross-checked values. Confirm product unit, water and preparation with the supplied label.
- Keep waiting periods separate: Observe the crop interval. Cotton bollworm PHI remains held because primary references disagree.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Shinzen Plus the same as Shinzen granules?No. It is fipronil 5% SC, a different formulation from 0.3% or 0.6% GR.
Why is the application method held?Current brand sources conflict between broadcast and spray. A competing brand’s route cannot resolve that conflict for Shinzen Plus.
Why are product rates starred?IFFCO Bazar’s header is malformed as “m”. Manufacturer guidance independently uses ml, and a registered same-formulation leaflet explicitly corroborates ml crop quantities. Confirm the current pack.
Does the sugarcane interval mean nine days?No. IFFCO Bazar explicitly says nine months. It is not converted into a guessed number of days.
What is the cotton bollworm PHI?It is unresolved: the branded page and a same-formulation leaflet give six days, while a 2025 government compilation gives seven. Obtain the current Shinzen Plus label.
