Sumitomo Dantotsu Insecticide (Clothianidin 50% WDG)

The "Green Triangle" Safety Champion for Long-Lasting Sucking Pest Control.

[Image of Sumitomo Dantotsu 50g packet]

Dantotsu is a high-tech Japanese insecticide that comes in unique water-soluble granules (WDG). It is famous for its Green Triangle (Safety) rating and its ability to provide very long protection against sucking pests in Cotton and Paddy. It acts via the roots and leaves (Systemic) to turn the plant into a fortress against pests like Whiteflies, Jassids, and Termites.

Best For: Cotton (Jassids/Whiteflies), Paddy (BPH), and Sugarcane (Termites).

Why farmers choose itWhy Choose This Product? Key Benefits
  • ⏳ Long-Lasting Protection: It remains active inside the plant for 20+ days, meaning you need fewer sprays to keep your crop pest-free.
  • ? Green Triangle Safety: Classified as "Slightly Toxic," it is safer for farmers, applicators, and the environment compared to older red/yellow label poisons.
  • ? Root Systemic Power: When applied to the soil (or sprayed), it is absorbed by roots and leaves, moving upwards to protect even the new growth.
  • ? Low Dose Technology: You only need a tiny amount (12-16 grams per acre) for foliar sprays, making it highly efficient and easy to transport.
  • ? Termite Specialist: Apart from spraying, it is excellent for soil drenching in Sugarcane to control termites effectively.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action

Dantotsu works on the insect's central nervous system:

[Image of systemic movement from roots to leaves]

  1. Systemic Entry: Absorbed quickly by roots and foliage, it travels through the xylem (water pipes) of the plant.
  2. Nerve Blockade: It binds permanently to the pest's Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors (nervous system).
  3. Feeding Stop: The pest experiences tremors, stops feeding immediately (preventing crop damage), and dies shortly after.

It is highly effective against pests that have developed resistance to older chemicals.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices

[Image of farmer dissolving WDG granules in water]

  • Precise Measurement: Since the dose is very small (1-2g per pump), use a precise measuring spoon. Do not guess.
  • Mixing: The WDG granules dissolve instantly. Mix the required dose in a small mug of water first, then add to the main tank.
  • Paddy BPH: Direct the spray towards the base of the plant (where hoppers live), not just the leaves.
  • Cotton: Ensure coverage of the underside of leaves for best results against Whiteflies.
Use with careSafety & Disclaimer

Note: While safe for mammals, this product is toxic to bees. Avoid spraying during active flowering periods or spray in the evening. Always read the full label instructions.
