Jumbo Insecticide | Chlorantraniliprole 18.5% SC

Jumbo Insecticide (Chlorantraniliprole 18.5% SC) is a modern suspension concentrate insecticide that provides effective control of Lepidopteran pests such as stem borers and fruit borers. It works through both systemic and contact action, ensuring pests are controlled from the inside as well as upon contact.

With its long-lasting residual activity, Jumbo protects crops like sugarcane, cotton, tomato, pigeon pea, and rice from yield losses. Unlike older chemistries, it is safe on beneficial insects such as pollinators and natural predators, supporting sustainable farming practices.

Jumbo is designed for use in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs, making it a reliable choice for progressive farmers. Learn more about insecticide best practices in our knowledge hub. For science-backed details on IPM, refer to ICAR-National Centre for Integrated Pest Management.
