What is Fenvalerate 20% EC?

Fenvalerate 20% EC (FENVAL) is a premium synthetic pyrethroid insecticide by Harishree Crop Science with strong contact and stomach action for controlling bollworms, caterpillars, fruit borers, shoot borers, pod borers, and leaf-eating chewing pests on cotton, chilli, brinjal, tomato, okra, pulses, oilseed crops, and vegetables. Recommended dose: 30 ml per pump.

How does Fenvalerate 20% EC work?

Synthetic pyrethroid mode of action — Fenvalerate disrupts sodium channels for contact and stomach pest control.

  1. EC deposit on foliage

    On application, FENVAL forms an even emulsifiable concentrate film on leaf surfaces. Chewing pests ingest or contact treated foliage during feeding, absorbing Fenvalerate through cuticle and gut.

  2. Contact action — rapid paralysis

    Fenvalerate acts on contact, disrupting sodium channels in insect nerve tissue. Pests exposed to the spray deposit experience rapid paralysis and immediate cessation of feeding damage.

  3. Stomach action — chewing pest control

    When caterpillars, borers, and bollworms ingest treated plant tissue, Fenvalerate delivers strong stomach poison insecticide activity — effective control of hidden feeders on leaf undersides.

  4. Sodium channel modulation

    As a Type-II synthetic pyrethroid, Fenvalerate prolongs sodium channel opening in nerve axons, causing uncontrolled nerve firing, knockdown, and death of target chewing pests.

  5. Residual field protection

    The EC formulation adheres to foliage and maintains contact insecticide activity on treated surfaces, protecting crops from pest resurgence between scheduled spray intervals.

  6. Crop protection benefits

    Reduced borer and caterpillar feeding preserves leaf integrity, fruit quality, and plant vigour — supporting healthier cotton, chilli, tomato, and vegetable crops through harvest.

Target pests

FENVAL delivers strong contact and stomach action against major caterpillar and borer species when applied at early larval stages with full canopy coverage.

American Bollworm

Controls Helicoverpa armigera larvae in cotton squares and bolls through contact and stomach action when sprayed at early infestation with full canopy coverage.

Spotted Bollworm

Effective against spotted bollworm species that attack cotton bolls and squares, causing feeding scars and yield loss during peak boll development.

Pink Bollworm

Provides activity against pink bollworm larvae that bore into cotton bolls, protecting fibre quality and boll weight when applied at economic threshold.

Tobacco Caterpillar

Manages tobacco caterpillar and allied defoliating species that strip foliage and weaken plant vigour in chilli and vegetable crops.

Leaf Eating Caterpillars

Knocks down defoliating caterpillars and loopers that reduce photosynthetic leaf area when applied at economic threshold with thorough spray coverage.

Fruit Borers

Controls shoot and fruit borer larvae in tomato, brinjal, and chilli that tunnel into tender fruits and cause premature drop or unmarketable produce.

Shoot Borers

Manages shoot borer larvae that damage growing tips and stems in brinjal, chilli, and vegetable crops during vegetative and flowering stages.

Pod Borers

Controls pod borers in pulses and soybean that attack developing pods, causing shriveled grains and yield loss before larval entry.

Spodoptera

Effective against Spodoptera litura and allied armyworm species causing heavy defoliation in chilli, cotton, and mixed vegetable fields.

Leaf Feeders & Defoliators

Broad activity against leaf feeders and defoliators that strip crop canopy, reducing plant vigour and harvest potential across labeled crops.
