Jayam Plus is a broad-spectrum insecticide containing a combination of Lambda-cyhalothrin 5% EC and Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG, providing effective control against a wide range of insect pests, including sucking pests, chewing pests, and lepidopteran larvae. It is available as a water-dispersible granule (WG) formulation and is primarily used for agricultural pest control.

Mode of Action:

Jayam Plus combines the insecticidal properties of its two active ingredients:

• Lambda-cyhalothrin: A pyrethroid insecticide that acts on the sodium channels in insect nerve cells, causing repetitive nerve firing, paralysis, and eventually death.

• Emamectin Benzoate: An avermectin insecticide that binds to glutamate-gated chloride channels in insect nerve cells, causing paralysis and eventually death.

This dual-mode action effectively controls a wide range of insect pests, including sucking insects, chewing insects, and lepidopteran larvae.

Application:

Jayam Plus can be applied using various methods, including:

• Foliar spraying: Direct application to plant leaves and stems to control foliar pests.

• Soil drenching: Application to the soil around the plant base, allowing roots to absorb the insecticide to control soil-borne pests.

Target Pests:

Jayam Plus effectively controls a wide range of insect pests, including:

• Sucking pests: Aphids, thrips, jassids, whiteflies, and mealybugs

• Chewing pests: Caterpillars, beetles, and flies

• Lepidopteran larvae: American bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), tobacco caterpillar (Spodoptera litura), diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella), and other lepidopteran larvae

Precautions:

While Jayam Plus is considered relatively safe when used according to label directions, it is essential to take precautions during handling and application.

• Wear protective clothing, including gloves, goggles, and a mask, when handling or applying Jayam Plus.

• Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing.

• Do not eat, drink, or smoke while handling or applying Jayam Plus.

• Store Jayam Plus in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from food, feed, and children's reach.
