Crop fit: Paddy, Sugarcane.
Before applying: Match the crop, target, rate, method and harvest interval on the current pack.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌾Two listed crops: The manufacturer names paddy and sugarcane.
- 📏Strength distinction: The 0.6% GR identity is clearly separated from the 0.3% granule.
- 🌱Broadcast use: The verified brand route is granular broadcasting.
- ⚙️Defined nerve action: IRAC 2B identifies the active’s mechanism.
- 🔎Qualified reference data: Generic rice figures are not passed off as a complete Shinzen Ultra label.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Fipronil blocks GABA-gated chloride channels in insect nerve systems. The manufacturer describes contact and ingestion action and a broadcast application route.
- Use the labelled placement: Follow the exact Shinzen Ultra broadcast programme for the crop.
- Expose the target insects: Contact and feeding allow susceptible pests to encounter the active.
- 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 manufacturer names both crops but does not pair pests and crop-specific rates. The target details below are explicitly qualified formulation references.
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Paddy |
|
| Sugarcane |
|
Paddy pairing is supported by a registered fipronil 0.6% GR leaflet. Sugarcane pairing appears in a September 2025 government compilation. Both require current Shinzen Ultra pack confirmation; no generic wheat use is added. IFFCO also mentions root grubs and white grubs generally, without assigning a crop-specific programme. Any crop-specific grub target, rate and application details remain withheld until the supplied label confirms them.
Dosage & Application Guide
Starred rice figures are a same-formulation reference, not complete current Shinzen Ultra label directions. Do not apply until the supplied pack confirms the full programme.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (kg / Acre) | Water | Per litre | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paddy | 4.05* | Not spray | Not applicable | 65* |
| Sugarcane | Confirm | Not spray | Not applicable | Confirm |
*Registered same-formulation leaflet: rice 10 kg product/ha, equivalent to 4.046856 kg/acre, shown as approximately 4.05 kg/acre; PHI 65 days. Manufacturer overview: 4–5 kg/acre, without individual crop allocation.
The generic sugarcane compilation gives a 229-day PHI but does not resolve the exact current brand programme or explicit product unit. Sugarcane recommendations remain held. “Not spray” does not remove label-specific irrigation requirements.
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
- Check the exact pack: Confirm fipronil 0.6% GR, the crop and the target pest before use.
- Resolve the crop programme: The manufacturer gives a broad 4–5 kg/acre range without assigning individual crop rates. Obtain the supplied label for the complete programme.
- Broadcast as directed: Use only the pack’s placement, carrier and water-management instructions. Another brand’s sand or irrigation recipe is not adopted.
- Confirm all intervals: The starred rice figures are formulation references. Sugarcane rate and PHI remain unresolved for this brand.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Shinzen Ultra the same strength as Shinzen?No. Shinzen Ultra is fipronil 0.6% GR; Shinzen is 0.3% GR. Do not swap rates between them.
Which crops does IFFCO-MC list?Paddy and sugarcane, with broadcasting as the application method.
Where does the 4.05 kg/acre rice figure come from?A registered same-formulation leaflet gives 10 kg/ha, equivalent to about 4.05 kg/acre, and 65-day PHI. It is not an IFFCO Shinzen Ultra leaflet.
What is the exact sugarcane programme?The manufacturer’s broad 4–5 kg/acre range is not crop-paired. Obtain the current Shinzen Ultra label for the sugarcane target, product rate and harvest interval.
Should I mix it with sand or maintain a set water depth?Only if and as the supplied Shinzen Ultra label instructs. Those details are not imported from another brand.
