Margo Delfin WG – Biological Insecticide

Dosage:
• 1 gm per liter of water
• 200 gm per acre

Application Method:
• Spray uniformly on both sides of leaves
• Ensure thorough coverage of the foliage, especially young leaves
• Use sufficient water for proper leaf wetting

Targeted Pests:
• Helicoverpa (Fruit Borer) → Controls fruit and pod damage
• Spodoptera (Armyworm) → Reduces leaf feeding and defoliation
• Diamondback Moth (DBM) → Protects crucifer crops from larval damage
• Leaf Eating Caterpillars → Stops feeding activity on vegetables and field crops
• Lepidopteran Larvae → Controls early-stage caterpillar infestation

Timing:
• Spray during early morning or evening hours
• Avoid spraying during strong sunlight or high temperature

Frequency:
• Repeat after 7–10 days if pest infestation continues
• Apply at early larval stage for best effectiveness

💡 Best Results Tip:
Use clean water and ensure pests actively feed on treated leaves for effective biological control action.

• Helps naturally reduce caterpillar population without disturbing crop ecology
• Protects young leaves from early chewing damage and surface injury
• Maintains crop cleanliness by preventing irregular leaf feeding patterns
• Supports healthier plant development by reducing continuous larval pressure
• Preserves beneficial insects that help in natural pest balance
• Helps maintain uniform crop appearance across the field
• Reduces hidden larval activity on the underside of leaves
• Improves plant resilience by minimizing repeated defoliation stress
• Supports better flowering by ensuring less foliage damage during growth stages
• Contributes to safer produce quality suitable for export and residue-conscious farming systems

• Vegetative Stage → Controls early infestation of leaf-eating caterpillars in Vegetable Crops, protecting young foliage and plant growth
• Flowering Stage → Protects flowers and tender parts of Cotton and Pulses from larval feeding damage, supporting better crop development
• Fruiting / Pod Development Stage → Reduces caterpillar damage in developing fruits and pods of Tomato, Chilli, and Brinjal, helping improve yield and quality

Safety measures while spraying insecticides:

• Always read and follow the label instructions on the product.
• Wear protective gear like gloves, mask, goggles, full sleeves shirt, and shoes.
• Avoid eating, drinking, or smoking during spraying.
• Do not spray against strong wind to prevent drift.
• Keep children, animals, and untrained persons away from the spraying area.
• Do not mix chemicals unless recommended.
• Wash hands, face, and exposed skin thoroughly after spraying.
• Clean spraying equipment properly after use.
• Store insecticides in original containers, away from food and out of children’s reach.
• Avoid spraying during very hot or rainy weather.
• Dispose empty containers safely, do not reuse them.
