How It Works: Mode of Action

Shinwa works differently from traditional insecticides. It targets the insect's nervous system in a unique way:

1. Target: It binds to the GABA-gated chloride channels in the pest's neurons.
2. Blockade: Unlike other chemicals that open these channels, Shinwa blocks them. This prevents the "calming" chloride ions from entering the nerve cells.
3. Result: The pest's nervous system becomes over-excited and "locks up." This leads to immediate convulsions, paralysis, and death.

Because it targets a different site than Diamides (like Coragen), pests resistant to those chemicals are fully susceptible to Shinwa.

Dosage & Application Guide

The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Using less water may require a higher dose per liter to match the acre requirement.

Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)

*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.

How to Apply: Best Practices

• Timing: Apply at the Economic Threshold Level (ETL)—when you first see 5-10 thrips per leaf or early signs of borer damage. Do not use as a preventative; use it to cure the problem.
• Mixing: Shinwa is compatible with Flonicamid (for whiteflies). Ensure thorough agitation. Avoid mixing with highly alkaline fungicides (like Bordeaux mixture).
• Coverage: Use 150-200 Litres of water per acre. Good coverage is essential because Shinwa moves into the leaf (translaminar) but does not move up the plant (systemic).
• Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Avoid spraying near fish ponds or aquaculture as it is toxic to aquatic life.
