Tafgor (Rallis India Limited) is a broad-spectrum insecticide and acaricide that contains 22.9% EC of the active ingredient Emamectin benzoate. Emamectin benzoate is an avermectin insecticide that works by disrupting the nervous system of insects. It binds to the glutamate-gated chloride channels in the insect's nervous system, which leads to paralysis and death.

Tafgor is effective against a wide range of pests, including sucking pests such as aphids, whiteflies, and thrips, as well as chewing pests such as caterpillars and beetles. It is also effective against mites and ticks. Tafgor has a contact and stomach action, which means that it kills insects when they come into contact with it or when they ingest it. It also has a residual activity of up to 14 days, which means that it remains active on the plant surface for a period of time after application. This makes it an ideal choice for controlling pests in a wide range of crops, including paddy, cotton, vegetables, and fruits.
