How Corprima Works
Chlorantraniliprole belongs to IRAC Group 28. It modulates insect ryanodine receptors involved in calcium release and muscle function, leading to contraction and paralysis in susceptible target insects. FMC describes Corprima as acting mainly through ingestion and causing exposed pests to stop feeding rapidly. Performance still depends on correct identification, timing, coverage and label-compliant use.
Registered Crops, Targets, Dose, Water and PHI
| Crop | Registered Target | Active Rate | Product Rate | Water | PHI |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tomato | Fruit borer (Helicoverpa armigera) | 30 g a.i./ha | 86 g/ha | 500 L/ha | 3 days |
| Okra | Fruit borer (H. armigera) and shoot and fruit borer (Earias vittella) | 25 g a.i./ha | 71 g/ha | 500 L/ha | 5 days |
PHI means pre-harvest interval. The current physical Corprima label is the final authority for crops, targets, directions, restrictions and precautions.
Application Guidance
- Confirm the crop and target pest before treatment; do not extend this page to other vegetables or caterpillars.
- Measure the treated area and calibrate the sprayer to deliver the correct product quantity and 500 L water per hectare.
- Use 86 g/ha for tomato and 71 g/ha for okra. Do not use a shared 34 g/acre instruction.
- Do not convert the registered area direction into a universal g/L, fixed tank dose or sachet-per-acre shortcut.
- Follow the current pack for timing, number of sprays, intervals, re-entry, weather limits, mixing order and permitted compatibility.
Resistance Stewardship
Corprima is IRAC Group 28. Another Chlorantraniliprole or Group 28 product is not a different-group rotation. Avoid relying on Group 28 against successive generations of the same pest. Where another treatment is justified, follow local expert guidance and use only an effective product from a different IRAC group that is independently registered for that crop and pest.
