Tata Kakuna is an advanced dual-action insecticide containing Novaluron 5.25% + Emamectin Benzoate 0.9% SC. It provides excellent control of Lepidopteran pests such as Diamondback Moth, Tobacco Caterpillar, Fruit Borer, Pod Borer, and Stem Borer. The product combines contact and stomach action with translaminar movement to ensure effective and long-lasting pest control.
Kakuna disrupts insect growth by inhibiting chitin synthesis while simultaneously affecting the pest's nervous system, resulting in rapid feeding cessation and eventual death. It helps protect crops from severe pest damage and supports healthy crop growth and higher yields.
