FAQ for Ratna Sailer
Which pests does Ratna Sailer control in sugarcane?
Ratna Sailer controls all species of white grubs (Holotrichia spp., Leucopholis spp.) and other soil pest species in sugarcane through its dual-mode systemic combination insecticide.
How does the Fipronil-Imidacloprid combination work?
Fipronil blocks GABA-gated chloride channels while Imidacloprid activates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors — completely different neural mechanisms providing synergistic activity against white grub species.
How is Ratna Sailer applied in sugarcane?
Ratna Sailer WG granules are dissolved in water and applied as a soil drench or furrow treatment at planting, or as a basal soil application to protect sugarcane roots from white grub damage.
Why is white grub control important in sugarcane?
White grubs feed on sugarcane roots causing wilting, top die-back, and plant death. Heavy infestations can cause 50–70% crop loss, making effective soil pest management critical for sugarcane yield.
Does Ratna Sailer provide season-long white grub control?
Yes, the soil persistence and systemic activity of both Fipronil and Imidacloprid in Ratna Sailer provides extended season-long protection against white grub populations in sugarcane fields.
