AREVA: Thiamethoxam 25% WG

AREVA is a highly effective, broad-spectrum systemic insecticide containing Thiamethoxam 25% WG (Water Dispersible Granules). Belonging to the neonicotinoid class, it is renowned for its excellent "sub-surface" and systemic movement within the plant, providing long-lasting protection against a wide array of sucking pests.

Its WG formulation ensures that the granules dissolve quickly in water, making it easy to handle and apply while reducing dust exposure for the user.


Key Features & Benefits

  • Superior Systemic Action: Rapidly absorbed by the roots and leaves, moving upward throughout the plant to protect even the newest foliage.

  • Translaminar Movement: When sprayed on the upper surface of a leaf, it penetrates to the underside, targeting pests hiding where traditional sprays might not reach.

  • Vigor Effect: Beyond pest control, it is known to improve plant greenness and overall vigor, leading to better crop establishment.

  • Long Residual Control: Provides extended protection, reducing the number of sprays required during the cropping season.

Application Guidelines

  • Dosage: Typically applied at 40 to 100 grams per acre depending on the crop and pest density. For rice BPH, a higher concentration is often recommended.

  • Method: Can be used as a foliar spray or as a soil drench. When used as a drench, it is highly effective against early-stage sucking pests.

  • Water Volume: Ensure adequate water (usually 150-200 liters per acre) to provide thorough coverage of the plant canopy.


Safety & Storage

Note: AREVA is highly toxic to bees. Avoid spraying during active foraging hours or when the crop is in full bloom.

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from food and animal feed.

  • Wear protective clothing, including a mask and gloves, during application.

  • Follow the recommended Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI) to ensure produce safety.
