Rallis Clasto (Pyrifluquinazon 20% WG) – Product Overview
Rallis Clasto is a cutting-edge, next-generation insecticide featuring the active ingredient Pyrifluquinazon 20% WG (Wettable Granules). It belongs to a unique chemical class (Pyridine azomethine derivatives) specifically developed to manage tough-to-kill sucking pests. Clasto is highly regarded for its ability to provide long-lasting relief in crops where pests have developed resistance to traditional neonicotinoids.
Key Features & Mode of Action
Unique Behavior Modifier: Clasto works as an "anti-feedant." It immediately disrupts the coordination and feeding behavior of sucking pests. Once exposed, the insects cannot insert their mouthparts into the plant tissue and eventually die of dehydration and starvation.
Immediate Protection: Although the pest may stay on the plant for a short time after spraying, it stops feeding instantly, halting any further crop damage or virus transmission.
Excellent Translaminar Activity: The product moves from the upper surface of the leaf to the lower surface, targeting pests hiding in hard-to-reach areas.
Advanced WG Formulation: The Water Dispersible Granule (WG) format ensures easy measurement, no dust, and excellent solubility in water.
Recommended Uses on Various Crops
Clasto is a specialist for sucking pest complexes, especially in vegetables and fiber crops.
Crop | Target Pests | Dosage (per Acre) |
Cotton | Whiteflies, Jassids, Thrips, Aphids | 200 g |
Chilli | Thrips, Whiteflies, Aphids | 200 g |
Tomato | Whiteflies, Aphids | 200 g |
Okra (Bhindi) | Jassids, Whiteflies | 200 g |

Key Benefits
Breaking Resistance: It is a powerful tool against Whiteflies and Thrips that no longer respond to older insecticidal sprays.
Extended Residual Control: Provides a long window of protection (often up to 15–20 days), reducing the number of sprays required per season.
Virus Management: By instantly stopping sucking pests (which are often carriers of plant viruses like Chilli Leaf Curl), Clasto helps in maintaining the overall health of the field.
Rain-Fastness: Strong translaminar movement means the product is quickly absorbed into the leaf, making it less likely to wash away.
Application & Safety Guidelines
Application Stage: For best results, apply Clasto at the early stages of pest population buildup. It is highly effective during the vegetative and flowering stages.
Water Volume: Use 150–200 liters of water per acre to ensure uniform and thorough coverage of the foliage.
IPM Friendly: Clasto has a selective mode of action that is generally safer for many beneficial predatory insects compared to broad-spectrum pyrethroids.
Safety: Always wear protective gear, including gloves and a face shield. Do not spray against the direction of the wind.
