Trigum

Description

What is TRIGUM?

TRIGUM is an advanced insecticide solution, specially formulated with Carbosulfan (23%) and Emamectin Benzoate (2%), aimed at controlling nematodes and insect pests in tobacco crops. It combines two powerful active ingredients with distinct modes of action, making it highly effective for controlling Root Knot nematodes and Agrotis ipsilon (cutworm). This product is available in pack sizes of 250ml and 500ml, and has a Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI) of 21-30 days, ensuring optimal crop protection.

Key Benefits

• Dual Pest Control: Effectively targets both nematodes and insect pests.
• Broad-Spectrum Protection: Works on a variety of soil-borne and foliar pests.
• Highly Effective: Controls root-knot nematodes and Agrotis ipsilon.
• Easy Application: User-friendly with simple application methods.
• Enhanced Crop Yield: Protects tobacco crops, ensuring better growth and healthier plants.

How It Works

TRIGUM works through the combination of two distinct modes of action:

• Carbosulfan: This ingredient acts as an Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, preventing pests from transmitting nerve signals, leading to paralysis and death.
• Emamectin Benzoate: As a chloride channel activator, it disrupts the nervous system of pests, leading to their quick elimination.

These two modes of action make TRIGUM highly effective against both soil-borne nematodes and insect pests in tobacco, offering long-lasting protection and reducing the risk of resistance development.
