Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action

Virtako uses a two-pronged attack to ensure pests cannot survive or damage the crop:

  1. Nervous System Overload (Thiamethoxam): It mimics acetylcholine, causing the pest's nerves to fire continuously. This leads to uncontrollable twitching and tremors.
  2. Muscle Paralysis (Chlorantraniliprole): It locks the pest's calcium channels open, draining their muscles of energy. This causes immediate paralysis.
  3. Stop-Feeding Effect: Within minutes of ingestion, the larva loses control of its mouthparts and stops feeding. The pest dies from starvation and system failure shortly after.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide

The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.

How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
CropDose (kg / Acre)Application MethodDose (ml / Litre)PHI (Days)
Rice2.5 kgBroadcast (with sand/urea)N/A (Granule)30
Corn (Maize)2.5 kgWhorl ApplicationN/A (Granule)30
Sugarcane4.0 kgSoil ApplicationN/A (Granule)30+

*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
  • Timing: For Rice, apply 20-30 Days After Transplanting (DAT). For Corn, apply 15-20 Days After Sowing.
  • Mixing: The 2.5 kg dose is small for an acre. Mix it with 7-10 kg of dry sand or your fertilizer (Urea) to ensure even spreading across the field.
  • Coverage: In Paddy, ensure there is 2-3 inches of standing water. Do not drain the water for 48-72 hours to allow the granules to dissolve and absorb.
  • Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
