Ferterra is an insecticide that is used to control a wide range of insect pests on rice and sugarcane. It contains the active ingredient rynaxypyr, which is an anthranilic diamide insecticide. Anthranilic diamide insecticides work by disrupting the insect's ryanodine receptors, which leads to muscle paralysis and death.

Ferra is applied as a granular insecticide and is typically applied early in the growing season, but can be applied at any time during the growing season, as long as the pests are actively growing. Ferterra is effective against a wide range of insect pests, including:

• Lepidopterans (caterpillars)
• Coleopterans (beetles)
• Thrips
• Whiteflies
• Aphids

Ferra is also effective against some sucking pests, such as the rice leafhopper and the sugarcane leafhopper.

Advantages of using Ferterra insecticide:

• Effective against a wide range of insect pests
• Broad-spectrum insecticide with a different mode of action than other insecticides, which reduces the risk of resistance
• Long residual activity
• Compatible with other pesticides
• Relatively low toxicity to humans and other non-target organisms

How to use Ferterra insecticide:

Ferra insecticide is applied as a granular insecticide. It can be applied using a variety of methods, such as broadcast spreaders, air broadcasters, and furrow drills. The specific application method will vary depending on the size of the area to be treated and the equipment that is available.

Additional tips:

• Apply Ferterra insecticide when the insect pests are actively growing.
• Use a higher dose of Ferterra insecticide for more severe infestations.

• Ferterra insecticide is a systemic insecticide, which means that it is absorbed by the plant and translocated throughout the plant tissues. This makes it effective against pests that feed on the underside of leaves or that bore into stems.
