Pymetrozine 50% WDG Insecticide

Pymetrozine 50% WDG

Pymetrozine 50% WDG is a new-generation insecticide developed to provide long-lasting control of piercing-sucking pests without harming beneficial insects or disrupting ecological balance. Unlike conventional insecticides that act through neurotoxicity or acute poisoning, pymetrozine interferes with the feeding mechanism of Homoptera pests, causing irreversible cessation of feeding and eventual death through starvation.

Its non-biocide mode of action makes it especially useful in rotation or combination with neonicotinoids or pyrethroids, helping to reduce resistance buildup in pests like:

• Brown planthopper, white-backed planthopper, and green leafhopper in rice
• Cabbage aphid, green peach aphid, and cotton aphid
• Whiteflies in sweet potato, vegetables, and greenhouse crops

The water-dispersible granule (WDG) format ensures high dispersibility, no dust, and easy handling for both manual and mechanized application systems. Pymetrozine 50 wg insecticide is particularly effective during early infestation stages, when pest populations are still localized and feeding actively.

At POMAIS, we supply multiple pymetrozine products including standalone formulations (25% WP, 50% WDG, 98% TC) and high-performance mixtures with thiamethoxam or indoxacarb. These combinations offer both contact and systemic activity, expanding the spectrum of control and improving field efficiency.

Mode of Action

Pymetrozine functions through a unique non-neurotoxic mechanism that specifically targets the feeding system of sap-sucking pests. After the insect comes into contact with or ingests the product, pymetrozine disrupts the stylet movement and salivary pumping behavior, effectively preventing the insect from feeding on plant phloem sap.

Rather than causing immediate knockdown, pymetrozine 50 wg induces a progressive feeding disorder. Affected pests quickly stop feeding—within minutes—resulting in gradual starvation and death within 2–3 days. This mode of action is:

• Highly selective to Homoptera pests (aphids, whiteflies, planthoppers, leafhoppers)
• Safe for predatory and pollinating insects when applied according to label instructions
• Effective against resistant pest populations, particularly where organophosphates or neonicotinoids have lost efficacy

Its systemic activity allows pymetrozine to be absorbed by plant tissues and translocated to new growth areas, ensuring full-plant protection over time. It also exhibits translaminar movement, making it effective even when complete spray coverage is difficult.

This innovative approach makes pymetrozine insecticide a critical component in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs, resistance rotation strategies, and ecological crop protection models.

Target Pests & Application Areas

Pymetrozine 50% WDG is specially designed to control piercing-sucking pests that damage crops by feeding on plant sap and transmitting viral diseases. It is highly effective against both nymphs and adults of Homoptera species, making it a valuable tool in preventive and early-stage pest control programs.

This insecticide is particularly suited for:

• Rice fields facing pressure from brown planthopper, white-backed planthopper, or green leafhopper
• Vegetable crops affected by aphids and whiteflies in open field and greenhouse systems
• Cotton and fruit trees where aphid and leafhopper outbreaks impact both yield and quality
• Ornamentals and field crops requiring selective protection without harming beneficial species

Application Methods & Dosage

Pymetrozine 50% WDG is typically applied as a foliar spray, targeting early pest populations before they reach economic damage thresholds. It is important to apply evenly and ensure full coverage of target feeding zones, especially on the underside of leaves where pests often concentrate.

The following table provides general guidance for key crops and pest targets:

Formulation Stability & Packaging Options

Pymetrozine 50% WDG is engineered for stability, ease of handling, and excellent dispersibility. As a water-dispersible granule, it offers superior storage performance compared to older WP or EC formulations, while also providing a dust-free, easy-to-measure user experience in the field.

Formulation Stability Features:

• Shelf Life: Minimum 2 years under standard dry, sealed storage conditions
• Physical Stability: No caking, agglomeration, or moisture absorption in humid environments
• Dispersibility: Fully dissolves in water with minimal agitation; compatible with most commercial sprayers
• pH Range: Maintains chemical stability in spray tank water with pH between 5.5–8.0

Pymetrozine is also available in other formulations including:

• 25% WP – light yellow powder, suitable for smallholder use
• 70% WDG – higher concentration for low-dose, high-efficiency use
• 98% TC – technical concentrate for formulators and large-scale manufacturers

Available Packaging Options:

Tank Mix Compatibility & Safety Precautions

Pymetrozine 50% WDG is compatible with a wide range of commonly used insecticides, fungicides, and foliar fertilizers, making it highly suitable for tank-mix applications in integrated pest management programs. However, as with all agrochemicals, small-scale compatibility testing is strongly recommended before field-wide use.

Tank Mix Compatibility:

• Compatible with systemic insecticides such as thiamethoxam, acetamiprid, and indoxacarb
• Can be mixed with fungicides for combined pest and disease control
• Physically stable in water-based mixtures under standard spray conditions

Avoid Mixing With:

• Strong alkaline solutions (pH > 9) that may affect formulation stability
• Oil-based emulsifiable concentrates (ECs) without prior compatibility checks
• High-sulfur or copper-based products unless proven compatible

Application Safety Guidelines:

• Wear protective gloves, clothing, and goggles during mixing and spraying
• Ensure even spray coverage, especially on the underside of leaves and pest-prone zones
• Avoid inhalation of dust or spray mist
• Do not apply during strong wind or immediately before heavy rainfall
• Observe pre-harvest intervals (PHI) and re-entry intervals (REI) as per crop and label recommendations
• Prevent contamination of nearby water bodies; the product is toxic to aquatic organisms

Special note for rice application: Similar to profenofos, improper use of pymetrozine on rice (e.g., excessive dose or incorrect timing) may lead to grain odor issues. Follow label timing carefully—typically applied at panicle initiation and post-heading stages.

Field Use Scenarios

In large-scale rice production regions, Pymetrozine 50% WDG is widely applied during the critical stages of panicle initiation and post-heading to manage brown planthopper outbreaks. Farmers have reported excellent field persistence and reduced virus transmission when applied at 10–12 g/mu, especially under moderate humidity conditions. By inhibiting feeding rather than causing direct knockdown, pymetrozine allows the rice plant to recover and complete grain filling, protecting both yield and quality.

In vegetable production systems—especially in greenhouse tomatoes, eggplants, and leafy greens—this formulation is used as part of an early warning pest program to prevent the buildup of aphid and whitefly populations. When applied at the early nymph stage, pymetrozine provides 7–10 days of residual activity, with minimal impact on pollinators and beneficial insects inside the protected environment.

Cotton and orchard growers use pymetrozine-based mixtures to control mixed aphid and jassid infestations during early flowering. Its systemic movement ensures that even new leaf flushes are protected from feeding damage. Compared with faster-acting neonicotinoids, pymetrozine is often selected for targeted IPM use where pest pressure is continuous but not yet severe.

Thanks to its non-neurotoxic action and long-lasting selectivity, pymetrozine has become a reliable component in rotation programs across multiple cropping systems where ecological protection and residue safety are important priorities.
