Item description
HPM Power-X Insecticide Overview
HPM Power-X is a suspension concentrate insecticide containing Emamectin Benzoate 1.5% + Fipronil 3.5% SC.
The registered formulation is intended for label-directed control of thrips and fruit borer in chilli. It combines two different insecticide mode-of-action groups and must be used only on the crop, pest, dose and timing stated on the container label or leaflet.
Important: Power-X is not green ammonia, a fertilizer or a plant-growth product. Diagnose the pest correctly before use and do not extend the recommendation to unlisted crops.
Why Choose HPM Power-X?
- Combination formulation: Contains Emamectin Benzoate and Fipronil in one SC formulation.
- Label-listed chilli use: Registered for thrips and fruit borer in chilli.
- Two MoA groups: Emamectin Benzoate is IRAC Group 6 and Fipronil is IRAC Group 2B.
- Measured application: The official recommendation provides a crop-specific formulation rate, water volume, PHI and re-entry interval.
- Resistance stewardship: Rotate subsequent treatments with effective products from different IRAC groups as advised locally; do not rely repeatedly on the same chemistry.

How to Apply Safely
- Use a high-volume knapsack sprayer with hollow-cone nozzle or other label-approved equipment.
- Measure the formulation and water accurately; maintain uniform coverage.
- Wear label-specified PPE and keep people and animals out of the treated area for the stated re-entry interval.
- Avoid use near aquaculture because the formulation is toxic to fish. Do not spray during active bee-foraging periods and avoid bird exposure.
- Do not mix with another input unless the product labels or a qualified agricultural adviser confirm compatibility.
