UPL Ulala is a broad-spectrum insecticide that offers a systemic mode of action. It works by attacking the nervous system of sap-sucking pests, causing them to permanently stop feeding, leading to their eventual death. The UPL Ulala insecticide offers a quick-action formula that is rainfast after 2 hours of application and does not harm beneficial insects when used as recommended.
Key Features and Benefits of Ulala Insecticide:
Effective Formula: UPL Ulala insecticide has a unique mode of action that makes it effective against pests with resistance.
Quick Action: The Ulala insecticide offers quick pest relief after application, leading to healthier crops for better yields.
Complete Coverage: Ulala insecticide offers strong systemic and translaminar activity, which helps cover the entire crop upon application.
Broad Spectrum: UPL Ulala is effective against a wide range of pests such as Aphids, Jassids, Thrips, Whiteflies, and others.
Long-Lasting: A single dose of Ulala insecticide provides prolonged residual activity, ensuring better crop safety.
Ulala Insecticide Uses — What Does It Control?
Ulala insecticide covers the complete range of sucking pests across both registered crops:
Hopper Pests (Paddy): Brown Plant Hopper (BPH), White-Backed Plant Hopper (WBPH), Green Leaf Hopper (GLH)
Sucking Pests (Cotton and Paddy): Aphids, Jassids, Thrips, Whiteflies
Registered Crops: Paddy (Rice) and Cotton
UPL Ulala Dose — Recommended Dose:
The Ulala insecticide Dosage per litre of water is 0.25–0.50 gm per litre of water — equivalent to 60–80 gm per acre and 4–5 gm per 15L pump across both registered crops.
Crop | Target Pest | Dose Per Acre | Per 15L Pump | Per Litre | PHI |
Paddy / Rice | BPH, WBPH, GLH, Aphids | 60–80 gm | 4–5 gm | 0.25–0.50 gm | 21 days (India) / 36 days (EU/USA export) |
Cotton | Aphids, Jassids, Thrips, Whiteflies | 60–80 gm | 4–5 gm | 0.25–0.50 gm | 21 days |
How To Use UPL Ulala Insecticide:
Measure the required dose of UPL Ulala as per the crop-wise dose table above — the WG formulation dissolves rapidly in clean water without lumps.
Add the measured granules to a small amount of clean water in a separate container and stir until fully dissolved before adding to the sprayer tank.
Fill the tank with the remaining clean water and agitate well to form a uniform solution before spraying.
For Paddy hoppers, direct the spray toward the base of the plant where BPH concentrates near the waterline — ensure thorough coverage of the lower stem and leaf sheath zone.
For Cotton, use a hollow cone nozzle for thorough coverage of the underside of leaves where Jassids, Aphids, and Whiteflies cluster most densely.
Apply at the Economic Threshold Level — 2 Jassids per leaf for Cotton, or at the first sign of hopper activity in Paddy.
UPL Ulala is non-toxic to bees — it can be applied even when bees are active in the field, unlike most other insecticide classes.
Rinse the sprayer thoroughly with clean water after use.
Best Time to Apply:
Apply Ulala insecticide in the early morning or late evening for best systemic absorption and to avoid rapid evaporation. For BPH in Paddy, apply at the active tillering stage when hopper populations first cross the economic threshold to prevent Hopper Burn.
Frequency of Application and Re-Entry Period:
Frequency of Application: Apply at the first sign of pest infestation. UPL Ulala provides 14–21 days of residual sucking pest control; repeat after this window if pest pressure continues. Do not exceed 2–3 applications per season — rotate with products from different IRAC groups after 2 consecutive applications.
Re-Entry Period: Ulala insecticide is safe for re-entry after the spray has dried — no strict re-entry restriction given its low mammalian toxicity. Observe a minimum of 4 hours before re-entry as a general precaution.
Tank-Mix Compatibility: UPL Ulala is compatible with most fungicides and insecticides. Always perform a jar test before mixing with unfamiliar products. Do not mix with strongly alkaline products.
Safety Precautions and Handling:
Wear gloves and a face mask before handling or spraying Ulala insecticide.
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during mixing or application.
Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes — rinse immediately with clean water if contact occurs.
Do not contaminate water bodies — avoid spray drift or runoff into ponds, rivers, or irrigation channels.
Keep children and farm animals away from treated areas during and immediately after application.
Wash all exposed skin with soap and water after every spray session.
Triple rinse empty containers, puncture, and dispose of per local waste guidelines.
