Syngenta Virtako Insecticide (Thiamethoxam 1% + Chlorantraniliprole 0.5% GR) - 2.5 kg

The "New Generation" Granule: Maximum Protection, Maximum Vigour.

Syngenta Virtako is a unique dual-action granular insecticide designed specifically for Rice and Corn farmers. It combines two powerful molecules—Thiamethoxam and Chlorantraniliprole—to stop Stem Borers and Leaf Folders in their tracks. Unlike sprays that wash off, Virtako is applied to the soil, absorbed by the roots, and moves inside the plant to provide long-lasting protection. Plus, it boosts crop health, giving you greener plants and more tillers ("Vigour Effect").

Best For: Rice (Paddy), Corn (Maize), and Sugarcane farmers looking to prevent "Dead Hearts" and "White Earheads" caused by Borers.

Why farmers choose itWhy Choose This Product? Key Benefits
  • ⚡ Double Action Power: Attacks the pest's nervous system (causing tremors) AND muscle system (causing paralysis). Pests stop feeding immediately.
  • ? The "Vigour Effect": Virtako doesn't just kill pests; it helps the plant grow better. Expect greener leaves, stronger roots, and more productive tillers.
  • ?️ Systemic Protection: Absorbed by the roots and travels up the stem. It kills borers hiding inside the stem where sprays cannot reach.
  • ⏳ Long Duration Control: Provides peace of mind for up to 30 days, protecting the crop during the critical vegetative stage.
  • ? Easy Application: No spraying required! Simply mix the granules with sand or fertilizer and broadcast (scatter) it in the field.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action

Virtako uses a "Nerve + Muscle" attack strategy to defeat resistant pests:

[Image of Rice Stem Borer dead heart symptom]

  1. Uptake: The granules dissolve in water. The roots drink up the medicine and send it up the stem.
  2. Nerve Attack (Thiamethoxam): Over-stimulates the pest's nerves, causing uncontrollable tremors.
  3. Muscle Paralysis (Chlorantraniliprole): Drains calcium from the muscles. The pest becomes paralyzed and loses the ability to chew.
  4. Result: The larva stops feeding within minutes and dies inside the stem, preventing Dead Heart damage.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide

The Golden Rule: For Rice, maintain standing water (2-3 inches) in the field for 48 hours after application to let the roots absorb the medicine.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
  • Broadcasting: Mix the 2.5 kg of Virtako with 7-10 kg of dry sand or Urea/Fertilizer. This ensures you can spread the small amount evenly across the whole acre.
  • Water (Rice): Ensure there is 2-3 inches of water in the field. Do not drain the water for 2-3 days after application.
  • Water (Corn/Sugar): Apply near the root zone and irrigate (water the field) immediately so the granules dissolve and reach the roots.
  • Timing: Do not apply too late. The best results come from protecting the plant early (Vegetative Stage).
Use with careSafety & Disclaimer

Always read and follow the instructions on the official product label. Do not apply near fish ponds (toxic to aquatic life). Wear protective gloves while mixing and broadcasting.
