ATEX

(Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG)

ATX (Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG) is a highly potent insecticide formulated for precise control of destructive lepidopteran larvae in agricultural crops. It acts by affecting nerve transmission in insects, leading to rapid feeding cessation and irreversible paralysis.

The soluble granule formulation ensures quick dispersion in water, uniform spray coverage, and deep penetration into plant tissues, improving contact with target pests.

ATX is particularly effective against larvae hidden inside leaves and fruits, helping protect crops during critical flowering and fruiting stages while supporting healthy crop development.
