Anucron (Anu Products Limited) (Monocrotophos 36% SL) is a broad-spectrum, non-systemic organophosphate insecticide manufactured by Anu Products Limited. It is a soluble liquid (SL) formulation containing 36% monocrotophos, an organophosphate insecticide with contact and stomach action.

Mode of Action: Monocrotophos works by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme essential for nerve transmission in insects. This disruption of nerve function leads to paralysis and death.

Dosage and Application: The recommended dosage of Anucron varies depending on the crop and target pest. For most crops, the recommended dosage is 200-500 ml per hectare. Anucron should be applied as a foliar spray using a conventional sprayer. Make sure to cover all parts of the plant, including the leaves, stems, and fruits/seeds/pods, with the spray solution.
