Adama Agadi SC is a broad-spectrum, systemic, and contact insecticide containing Fipronil 5% SC (Suspension Concentrate) as its active ingredient. Belonging to the phenylpyrazole chemical group, it acts through both contact and ingestion. It is highly effective at low doses and works exceptionally well against insect pests that have developed resistance or tolerance to traditional pyrethroid, organophosphorus, or carbamate insecticides. It also promotes overall plant vigor.

Best Time to Spray
Time of Day: Spray during the early morning or late afternoon hours. Avoid spraying during heavy sunshine or high temperatures to maximize leaf absorption and prevent spray drift.
Weather: Apply when rainfall is not anticipated for at least 4 to 6 hours to allow optimal uptake by the crop foliage.
Pest Lifecycle: Best applied at the early appearance of pest populations or when economic threshold levels (ETL) are reached, rather than waiting for severe infestation.
Safety Precautions
Personal Protection: Always wear standard protective gear, including rubber gloves, face masks, protective eye goggles, and long-sleeved shirts during mixing and application.
Handling Habits: Do not eat, drink, smoke, or chew tobacco while handling or spraying the insecticide. Avoid inhaling the spray mist and spray along the direction of the wind.
Environmental Safety: Do not contaminate water bodies, fish ponds, or drainage channels, as Fipronil can be toxic to aquatic life and beneficial pollinators like bees.
Storage & Disposal: Store the product safely in its original, securely sealed container in a cool, dry place away from children, livestock, and food items. Safely triple-rinse and dispose of empty containers according to local guidelines.
Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI): Maintain the recommended waiting period between the final spray and harvesting to keep residual levels well within safe limits.
