Parijat JONGA Insecticide – Thiamethoxam 25% WG

JONGA Insecticide – Systemic Protection Against Sucking Pests

JONGA is a systemic insecticide formulated with Thiamethoxam 25% WG, developed to control a wide range of sucking insect pests across field crops, vegetables, fruits, and plantation crops. Its systemic and translaminar movement allows the active ingredient to spread within plant tissues, helping manage pests that remain hidden on the underside of leaves or inside plant parts.

JONGA is rapidly absorbed by plants and moves upward through the xylem, providing consistent protection. When applied at early pest infestation stages, it helps reduce feeding damage and limits pest population build-up under recommended use.

How JONGA Works

JONGA belongs to the neonicotinoid group of insecticides. It interferes with the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect nervous system. After contact or ingestion, pests quickly stop feeding. Continuous nerve stimulation leads to paralysis and eventual death of the insect, helping protect the crop from further damage.

Key Features and Benefits

• Systemic and translaminar action for deeper pest control
• Effective against major sucking pests in multiple crops
• Rapid uptake and upward movement within plants
• Provides quick knockdown with longer duration control
• Helps manage pests resistant to older insecticides
• Reduces disease spread by controlling insect vectors
• Comparatively safer to beneficial insects when used as directed
• Suitable for integrated pest management (IPM) programs
