Adama Acemain Dose — Recommended Dose:

The Acephate Insecticide Dose Per Litre is 1.0–1.5 gm per litre of water for most crops, equivalent to 350–500 gm per acre in 200–300 litres of water.

How To Use Adama Acemain Insecticide:

1. Measure the required dose of Adama Acemain Insecticide as per the crop-wise dose table above.

2. Pre-dissolve the measured powder in a small amount of clean water in a separate container and stir until fully dissolved.

3. Pour the dissolved solution into the sprayer tank half-filled with clean water and mix thoroughly.

4. Fill the tank with the remaining clean water and agitate well before spraying.

5. Use a hollow cone or flat fan nozzle — ensure spray reaches both upper and lower leaf surfaces and the base of stems where BPH and stem borers are active.

6. Apply this Acephate 75% SP formula at the first sign of pest activity or when pest populations cross the Economic Threshold Level.

7. Spray during early morning or late evening — avoid spraying during peak bee foraging hours.

8. Rinse the sprayer thoroughly with clean water after every use.

Best Time to Apply:

Apply Adama Acemain Insecticide in the early morning or late evening. For Cotton, spray at the first sign of sucking pest colony formation or Bollworm egg hatching. For Paddy hoppers, apply at the active tillering stage. For vegetables, apply at the first sign of infestation for the fastest and most complete pest knockdown.
