How to Use Safex Fipro SC:
Shake the Safex Fipro SC bottle well before use.
Measure the required quantity of this insecticide as per crop, pest, and acre area.
Fill the spray tank halfway with clean water.
Mix the measured Safex Fipro SC in a small amount of water first.
Add the prepared solution into the main spray tank.
Add the remaining water and stir the spray mixture properly.
Spray Fipro SC insecticide uniformly on the crop canopy.
In rice, direct Safex Fipro SC spray toward lower crop parts where hoppers and stem borer activity may be present.
In chilli, cabbage, and cotton, cover upper and lower leaf surfaces properly.
In sugarcane, apply Fipro SC insecticide near borer-active areas as per crop stage.
Avoid spraying during strong wind, rainfall, or very hot afternoon weather.
Use the prepared Safex Fipro SC spray solution on the same day.
Best Time to Apply:
Apply Safex Fipro SC when pest activity is first noticed or before pest pressure becomes heavy. This insecticide performs better when pests are active, and spray reaches their feeding or hiding areas. Morning or evening application is better because crop stress and spray loss are lower. Safex Fipro SC should not be sprayed on wilted, waterlogged, or severely stressed crops.
Frequency of Application and Re-entry Period:
Frequency of Application: One timely spray can help manage early to moderate pest pressure. Repeat Safex Fipro SC only if pest pressure continues and label guidance allows it.
Re-Entry Period: Do not enter the treated field for at least 24 hours after Fipro SC insecticide application without proper protective gear.
Compatibility: Safex Fipro SC may be compatible with many crop-protection products, but avoid unknown tank mixes without a jar test.
Application Care: This insecticide gives better results when spray reaches lower leaves, tender parts, and pest-hiding areas.
Resistance Care: Rotate Safex Fipro SC with other suitable insecticide groups and avoid repeated use of the same chemistry in every spray cycle.
