Buffalo 100 OD

BUFFALO 100 OD is a highly effective insecticide designed for the control of several key pests in agricultural settings, including aphids, thrips, whiteflies, and leafminers. Its formulation and properties make it a versatile and reliable choice for pest management. Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Key Features:

1. Systemic and Contact Action:

   • Systemic Action: The product is absorbed by the plant tissues and translocated throughout the plant. This allows it to target pests that feed on the plant, even if they are not directly exposed to the application.
   • Contact Action: Pests are also affected upon direct contact with the insecticide, providing immediate control.

2. Dual Active Ingredients

   Imidacloprid 75g/I + Betacyfluthrin 

   15mls/20L

   :The combination of two complementary active ingredients enhances efficacy. These ingredients work synergistically to target pests through multiple mechanisms, reducing the likelihood of resistance development.

4. Oil-Based Formulation:

   • The oil-based nature improves adhesion to plant surfaces, enhancing absorption and increasing its effectiveness against pests.

5. Quick Knock-Down Effect:

   • The insecticide rapidly immobilizes and kills pests, providing visible results shortly after application.

6. Long-Lasting Residual Activity:

   • With a residual effect lasting up to 14 days, the product offers extended protection, reducing the frequency of application and labor costs.

7. Ease of Absorption and Digestion by Pests:

   • The formulation ensures that the active ingredients are easily ingested by pests when they feed on treated plants, leading to high mortality rates.

Application Rates:

• Large Scale: 0.4 liters per hectare (Ha) for broad coverage in large farming operations.
• Small Scale: 20 milliliters per 20 liters of water for localized applications or small-scale farming.

Target Pests:

1. Aphids: Small, sap-sucking insects that weaken plants and spread viruses.
2. Thrips: Tiny insects that cause damage by feeding on plant tissues and spreading diseases.
3. Whiteflies: Pests that suck plant sap and excrete honeydew, leading to sooty mold growth.
4. Leafminers: Insects that burrow within leaves, causing visible trails and reducing photosynthetic capacity.

Usage Notes:

• Timing: Apply when pests are observed to prevent infestation from spreading.
• Coverage: Ensure thorough coverage of plant surfaces for maximum effectiveness.
• Safety: Follow label instructions and wear appropriate protective equipment during application.

By combining rapid action, long-lasting protection, and a dual mechanism of pest control, BUFFALO 100 OD is an excellent choice for managing these troublesome agricultural pests effectively.
