HPM Papro is a broad-spectrum insecticide that contains Buprofezin 15% + Acephate 35% WP, which is used to control harmful hoppers in paddy crops. This insecticide blocks enzymes in the insect’s body and targets their nervous system, leading to paralysis and death. HPM Papro insecticide has a systemic and contact action, which helps the product to last for a longer period, reducing the reapplication rates of the product.
Key Features and Benefits of HPM Papro:
Dual Action Formula: Buprofezin 15% + Acephate 35% WP combines two different insecticidal actions for hopper management.
Early-Season Protection: Application during the early appearance of hoppers helps provide quicker control through contact action.
Residual Activity: HPM Papro insecticide has a residual action, which allows the Papro insecticide to last for a longer period.
Reduces Pest Population: Buprofezin 15% + Acephate 35% WP kills insects rapidly and prevents pests from laying eggs, ensuring complete pest control.

How to Use HPM Papro:
Inspect the paddy crop for hopper infestation.
Measure 500 g of Buprofezin 15% + Acephate 35% WP for one acre.

Make a smooth slurry of the required product with water.
Add the slurry to the spray tank while mixing continuously.
