Paddy is India’s largest income-generating crop. However, paddy growers often face problems with pests like hoppers, which cause significant losses in crop yields. These pests multiply fast and become resistant to chemicals.
Bayer’s Curbix® Pro is an affordable solution for effective hopper management and crop protection in rice crops. It contains two powerful ingredients: ethiprole and pymetrozine, which help in pest control and crop protection. Curbix® Pro is plant-safe, fast-absorbing, and has better spreading properties.
Curbix® Pro is a systemic insecticide designed for effective hopper control in rice crops. It exhibits translaminar action, ensuring complete coverage. The unique combination of two active ingredients, each with distinct modes of action, enhances its effectiveness. Curbix® Pro is developed as a water dispersible granule (WDG) formulation. This unique formulation allows quick dissolution of the product in water, forms a uniform and stable solution, and ensures better spread and faster absorption of active ingredients by plants.

The active ingredients in Curbix® Pro, ethiprole and pymetrozine, employ a dual mode of action. They block the GABA-gated chloride channel and modulate the chordotonal organ TRPV channel.
This results in paralysis of the insect body and impacts the nervous system, ultimately leading to insect death.
