Welcome to the Cairochem website for agricultural services
Active Ingredient: Lufenuron 5% EC Characteristics and Features: • Livo Chem acts through contact and ingestion. • It inhibits the formation of chitin, halting the molting process of larvae. Consequently, larvae cannot transition from the treated instar to the next instar. • Livo Chem prevents larvae from feeding within hours, stopping crop damage. The larvae die within two days. • It affects all larval stages, from newly hatched larvae to advanced instars, ensuring no survival. • Approximately 25% of eggs fail to hatch under its effect. It also impacts pupae, leading to deformed moths, and affects adult moths by either preventing egg-laying or causing them to lay infertile eggs. • Provides prolonged crop protection for up to 21 days. Highly effective against early infestations of various pests, including: (Fall Armyworm - Fruit Borers - Flower Borers - Cotton Leafworm - Potato Tuber Moth - Tuta absoluta - Citrus Leafminers - Fruit Flies).
