Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Unione employs a "Lock and Key" strategy to manage pests that have developed resistance to single-molecule insecticides.
- Nervous System Attack (Acephate): Acts systemically to inhibit Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), causing paralysis and rapid death of feeding adults.
- Molting Inhibition (Buprofezin): Prevents nymphs from forming a new skin (cuticle) during growth. They die while trying to molt.
- Reproductive Control: It has a unique transovarial effect—females exposed to Unione lay sterile eggs that never hatch.
This multi-modal attack ensures that the pest population does not rebound, offering superior control over BPH and Whiteflies.

The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paddy (Rice) | 500 g | 200 L | 2.5 g | 20 Days |
| Cotton | 500 g | 200 L | 2.5 g | 48 Days |
| Okra | 300 g | 200 L | 1.5 g | 7 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Use Unione as an "Early Season Spray" (Vegetative Stage) when pest populations are just starting to build up.
- Mixing: Dissolve the powder in a separate bucket of water first to create a slurry before adding it to the main tank.
- Coverage: For Rice BPH, ensure the nozzle (Flood Jet) directs the spray to the base of the plant stem (culm) where hoppers reside.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not spray during active bee foraging hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Unione control Hopper Burn in rice?
Yes. By rapidly killing adults and stopping nymphs, Unione prevents the population explosion that causes Hopper Burn.
2. Can I mix Unione with other chemicals?
It is compatible with most neutral insecticides. However, never mix it with alkaline substances like Bordeaux mixture or Lime Sulphur, as they reduce its effectiveness.
3. Is Unione safe for flowering crops?
Acephate is toxic to bees. Avoid spraying during full bloom or when bees are active. It is best used in the vegetative or early flowering stages.
4. How much water should I use per acre?
For best results, especially in Rice and Cotton, use 200 Litres of water per acre to ensure the medicine reaches the base of the plant.
5. What is the shelf life of Unione?
When stored in a cool, dry place in its original packaging, Unione has a shelf life of 2 years.
