General Information:

Logo is an insecticide manufactured by Insecticides (India) Limited in India. It contains the active ingredient diafenthiuron 50% WP, which belongs to the thiourea class of insecticides. Logo is a broad-spectrum insecticide that effectively controls sucking pests like whiteflies, aphids, and jassids of cotton.

Mode of Action:

Diafenthiuron acts as an insect growth regulator (IGR), interfering with the molting process of insects. It inhibits the synthesis of chitin, a critical component of the insect exoskeleton. This disruption prevents the insect from shedding its old exoskeleton and developing a new one, leading to growth abnormalities and eventually death.

Application:

Logo can be applied to cotton crops. It is applied as a foliar spray, either as a direct spray or through drip irrigation systems. The recommended dose is 250 g/acre.

Precautions:

Logo is a moderately toxic product. It is important to follow all safety precautions when handling and applying this product. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, long sleeves, pants, and a respirator.

Additional Information:

Logo is a valuable tool for controlling sucking pests in cotton crops. Its IGR mode of action provides long-lasting control and prevents the development of resistance. It is also safe for beneficial insects, making it an environmentally friendly option for integrated pest management (IPM) programs.

Here are some additional tips for using Logo insecticide:

  • Apply Logo at the recommended dose and timing for the specific crop and pest being treated.
  • Monitor insect populations regularly to determine the need for additional applications.
  • Integrate Logo with other pest control methods, such as cultural practices and biological control, for a comprehensive IPM approach.

Logo Insecticide is a safe and effective tool when used responsibly and according to label instructions. It contributes to effective pest control and helps protect cotton crops from yield losses caused by sucking pests.
