Item description
HPM Dollar 4G Product Overview
HPM Dollar 4G is a ready-to-use granular insecticide containing Cartap Hydrochloride 4% GR. HPM recommends it for managing stem borer, leaf folder and whorl maggot in transplanted rice. Its granule format is broadcast rather than diluted as a foliar spray.

Always follow the current Dollar 4G pack label and local agricultural guidance; do not exceed the labelled rate or frequency. PHI and re-entry values are not stated in the available label copy, so the current pack label controls.
How to Apply
- Confirm the target pest and calculate the treatment area.
- Measure the crop- and pest-specific label dose. Do not convert these granules into an ml-per-litre spray rate.
- Broadcast evenly using a hand-operated granule applicator, mechanical disperser, or protected hands only where the current label permits.
- Avoid uneven heaps, drift beyond the field and contamination of ponds, canals, wells or animal water.
- Keep application records and rotate modes of action where agronomically appropriate.
