How It Works: Mode of Action
Tuventa acts principally through ingestion against susceptible crop pests.
-
Feeding exposure: Susceptible insects ingest the active ingredient.
-
Receptor action: Chlorantraniliprole acts on ryanodine receptors involved in muscle function.
-
Feeding cessation: Affected insects stop feeding as normal muscle activity is disrupted.
A change of brand alone does not change the active ingredient or its mode-of-action group.

How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Sugarcane: Use one drench over setts at planting for early shoot, top and stalk borers. The leaflet also allows soil drench at the base of newly emerged cane at first (palewa/planting) or second irrigation (dry planting). For later top-borer broods 3–5, it specifies one soil drench in May–June. Maximum one application per crop cycle.
-
Maize: Apply a foliar spray at the 2–3-leaf stage for the listed borers and fall armyworm. If a second application is required, the interval is 10 days. Maximum two per crop cycle.
-
Other listed crops: Begin foliar application when the pest reaches the economic threshold, followed, if needed, after 10–14 days according to pest pressure. Maximum two applications per crop cycle.
-
Mixing and equipment: Mix the measured product with a little water, then add the remaining water with vigorous stirring. Use a knapsack or foot sprayer with a hollow-cone nozzle for spraying.
-
Re-entry and water: Stay out for 24 hours and until sprays have dried. Avoid drift or runoff into water; do not apply during active bee foraging.
