Indofil Rimon is an insect growth regulator insecticide used for controlling larval stages of major crop pests. Rimon insecticide contains Novaluron 10% EC, which affects chitin formation and stops larvae from moulting into the next stage. Indofil Rimon is useful in cotton, cabbage, tomato, chilli, chickpea, pigeon pea, and other suitable vegetable crops. Rimon insecticide works mainly through stomach action, so pests are affected when they feed on treated crop parts. Indofil Rimon helps manage bollworm, diamondback moth, fruit borer, pod borer, tobacco caterpillar, Spodoptera, Helicoverpa, and other leaf-eating caterpillars.
Key Features and Benefits of Rimon Insecticide:
Larval Control: Rimon insecticide helps manage caterpillar pests like bollworm, fruit borer, pod borer, DBM, and Spodoptera larvae.
Stomach Action: Indofil Rimon works when larvae feed on sprayed plant parts, making proper crop coverage very important.
IPM Programs: Rimon insecticide fits well in integrated pest management (IPM) techniques and can be used
Longer Crop Protection: Rimon insecticide supports continued larval control when applied at the correct dose and early pest stage.
Suitable for Many Crops: Indofil Rimon is useful in cotton, cabbage, tomato, chilli, chickpea, tur, and other recommended vegetable crops.
Rimon Insecticide Uses:
Cotton: Indofil Rimon helps manage American bollworm and other caterpillar pests that damage squares, flowers, and bolls.
Cabbage: Rimon insecticide helps control diamondback moth larvae that feed on leaves and reduce crop quality.
Tomato: Indofil Rimon supports control of fruit borer that damages fruits and reduces marketable produce.
Chilli: Rimon insecticide helps manage fruit borer and tobacco caterpillar during active pest pressure.
Chickpea: Indofil Rimon helps control pod borer that damages pods and developing grains.
Pigeon Pea / Tur: Rimon insecticide supports control of Helicoverpa and other pod-feeding larvae.
Vegetables: Indofil Rimon is useful against leaf-eating caterpillars when applied early and evenly.
Indofil Rimon Dose:
Use Indofil Rimon as a foliar spray with clean water. Rimon insecticide Dosage Per Litre is around 0.75 to 2 ml per litre, depending on crop, pest, water volume, and label guidance. Rimon insecticide should be sprayed when larvae are small and actively feeding, because the product works best through ingestion. Use enough water to cover leaves, tender parts, flowers, fruits, pods, and pest-feeding areas properly.
Crop | Target Pest | Dose per acre | Application Method | PHI |
|---|
Cotton | American bollworm | 400 ml | Foliar spray in 200 to 400 L water | Follow label |
Cabbage | Diamondback moth | 300 ml | Foliar spray with full leaf coverage | Follow label |
Tomato | Fruit borer | 300 ml | Spray on leaves, flowers, and fruits | Follow label |
Chilli | Fruit borer and tobacco caterpillar | 150 ml | Foliar spray during early larval stage | Follow label |
Chickpea | Pod borer | 300 ml | Spray on flowers, pods, and crop canopy | Follow label |
Pigeon Pea / Tur | Helicoverpa and pod-feeding caterpillars | 300 ml or as per label | Foliar spray with uniform coverage | Follow label |
Other Vegetables | Leaf-eating caterpillars | As per label guidance | Foliar spray at early pest activity | Follow label |
How to Use Indofil Rimon:
Measure the required quantity of Indofil Rimon as per crop, pest, and acre area.
Fill the spray tank halfway with clean water.
Mix the measured Rimon insecticide quantity in a small amount of water first.
Add the prepared Indofil Rimon solution into the main spray tank.
Add the remaining water and stir the spray mixture properly.
Spray Rimon insecticide uniformly on the crop canopy.
Cover tender leaves, folded leaves, flowers, fruits, pods, and larval feeding areas.
Apply Indofil Rimon when caterpillar larvae are small and actively feeding.
Use Rimon insecticide before pest damage becomes heavy.
Avoid spraying during strong wind, rainfall, or very hot afternoon weather.
Use the prepared Indofil Rimon spray solution on the same day.
Best Time to Apply:
Apply Indofil Rimon at the early larval stage, before caterpillars become large and cause heavy crop damage. Rimon insecticide performs better when larvae are actively feeding, and the spray reaches pest-feeding areas. Morning or evening spraying is better because crop stress and spray loss are lower. Indofil Rimon should not be sprayed on wilted, waterlogged, or severely stressed crops.
Frequency of Application and Re-Entry Period:
Frequency of Application: One timely Rimon insecticide spray can help manage early larval pest pressure. Repeat Indofil Rimon only if pest activity continues and label guidance allows it.
Re-Entry Period: Do not enter the treated field for at least 24 hours after Rimon insecticide application without proper protective gear.
Compatibility: Indofil Rimon is compatible with many insecticides and fungicides, but avoid mixing with methomyl, alkaline materials, or unknown products without a jar test.
Application Care: Rimon insecticide gives better results when larvae feed on freshly treated crop parts, so complete spray coverage is important.
Resistance Care: Rotate Indofil Rimon with other suitable insecticide groups and avoid repeated use of the same chemistry in every spray cycle.
