Buprofezin is an insect growth regulator (IGR) that works by inhibiting chitin synthesis, preventing insect larvae from molting and developing into adults. It is effective in controlling sucking pests such as aphids, whiteflies, and leafhoppers in a variety of crops. Buprofezin is commonly used in integrated pest management (IPM) programs due to its selectivity towards insect pests, while being safe for beneficial insects.

Buprofezin is used as an insect growth regulator to control sucking pests such as whiteflies, aphids, and leafhoppers in various crops.
It inhibits chitin synthesis, preventing insect larvae from molting and disrupting their life cycle, effectively controlling pest populations.
Yes, Buprofezin is widely used in IPM programs to help manage insect populations that have developed resistance to conventional insecticides.
No, Buprofezin is a synthetic insect growth regulator and is not approved for organic farming.
While it has low toxicity to mammals and birds, it is highly toxic to aquatic organisms and should not be applied near water sources.
The exact application rate depends on the crop and target pest. It is recommended to refer to product labels and regulatory guidelines for precise dosages.
Wear protective clothing, gloves, and avoid direct skin or eye contact. Ensure proper disposal of empty containers as per regulatory requirements.
