In Stock

Descriptions

Bayer Bicota is an advanced granular insecticide designed to protect rice crops from stem borer infestations. It combines the powerful dual action of Tetraniliprole (0.4%) and Fipronil (0.6%) to provide quick knockdown and extended residual control. Stem borers damage rice by boring into the stem, disrupting nutrient flow, and causing whitehead symptoms and plant death. Bicota acts as a pre-emptive shield, offering early and long-lasting protection for healthier crops and increased yields.

Technical Content:

• Tetraniliprole 0.4% + Fipronil 0.6% GR
