General Information

SHINWA is an insecticide manufactured by Nissan Chemical Corporation in Japan and distributed by Insecticides (India) Limited in India. It contains the active ingredient fluxametamide 10% EC, which belongs to the meta-diamide class of insecticides. SHINWA is a broad-spectrum insecticide that effectively controls a wide range of insect pests, including lepidopteran larvae, thrips, and leaf miners.

Mode of Action

Fluxametamide acts as an antagonist of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) receptors in insect nerve cells. This disruption of GABA receptors leads to hyperexcitation of the insect nervous system, resulting in paralysis and death of the insect pest.

SHINWA can be applied to a variety of crops, including brinjal, okra, chilli, tomato, cabbage, and red gram. It is compatible with various application methods, including foliar sprays, soil drenches, and seed treatments. The recommended dose varies depending on the crop and pest being treated.
