Chemical Properties & Specifications
Used to control a wide range of insects including aphids, thrips, mites, and caterpillars on crops like rice, cotton, maize, sugarcane, and fruits.
Protects vegetables and ornamental plants from pests.
Used in certain seed treatments to protect against early-season pests.
Controls insect pests through various formulations like EC Crop Protection-(Emulsifiable Concentrate), GR (Granules), DP (Dusting Powder).
Public Health Pest Control-Also used in vector control applications under regulated conditions.
Broad Spectrum Control Effective against various insects on multiple crops
Formulation Versatility-Available in EC, GR, DP, and WP formulations
Systemic and Contact Action-Offers both systemic and contact insecticide effects
Fast Acting-Quick knockdown effect on targeted pests
Chlorpyrifos Technical remains effective for controlling a broad spectrum of insect pests in crops such as rice, maize, and cotton. Its dual action (contact and systemic) and quick knockdown effect are key reasons why it's still in use in developing countries where cost-effective pest control is critical.
Alternatives include neonicotinoids (Imidacloprid), pyrethroids (Lambda-cyhalothrin), and biological control agents, which offer lower toxicity profiles and are often compliant with newer EU/US pesticide regulations.
Exporters must comply with PIC (Prior Informed Consent) procedures under the Rotterdam Convention, and specific import restrictions in the EU and USA. Many countries require strict residue analysis and certification of compliance with national pesticide guidelines.
