Crop-Specific Dose, Water & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)

A/B mapping: Potato A is foliar spray for aphids; Potato B is soil drenching for aphids. Cotton A is jassids and aphids; Cotton B is whitefly. Tomato A is foliar spray for whitefly; Tomato B is soil drenching for whitefly. All other non-nursery rows are the brand’s foliar references. The same exact source pairs both tomato routes with 200 L/acre and 5 days.
Nursery means paddy nursery whorl maggot. Its website row mixes an acre-dose heading with “100 ml/g” water and does not establish a reliable application basis; dose, water and method are withheld pending the exact pack. The source lists an 86-day waiting period, not a substitute for those missing directions. Potato drench PHI is unspecified, not zero. Cumin PHI is unresolved: the brand website gives 15 days, while the government’s September 2025 reference gives 5. Confirm the current Taiyo label before use.
All displayed product and field-water rates are direct official brand acre references, with no conversion or derived tank concentration. Confirm label timing, equipment, repeat limits, re-entry, bee precautions and harvest instructions. No nursery treatment recipe is supplied.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match crop, target and route: Use the A/B mapping before selecting a rate; do not interchange foliar and drench directions.
- Confirm nursery directions separately: Do not use the ambiguous nursery website row as a spray or seed-treatment recipe. Obtain the exact current label.
- Use the crop’s water volume: Calibrate labelled equipment for the stated field programme. Do not calculate a universal per-litre dose.
- Protect people and pollinators: Use label PPE and bee precautions, avoid drift and water contamination, and observe the route-specific harvest interval.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Taiyo?Thiamethoxam 25% WG, distinct from Taiyo Plus 30% FS seed treatment.
Do foliar and drench doses differ?Yes. Potato uses 40 g/acre foliar or 80 g/acre drench; tomato uses 80 g/acre foliar or 160 g/acre drench, subject to the full current label.
Is the nursery dose supplied here?No. The source’s nursery dose/water basis is unclear, so obtain the current label before treating paddy nursery whorl maggot.
Which cotton rate applies?The brand table gives 40 g/acre for jassids and aphids, and 80 g/acre for whitefly, both in 200–300 L water/acre with 21 days PHI.
Can I use the foliar potato PHI for drenching?No. The foliar entry lists 77 days, while the drench entry is unspecified. Confirm the drench harvest directions on the current pack.
