- Gaucho is an improved, user-friendly seed treatment formulation containing the systemic insecticide Imidacloprid.

Mode of Action:

Imidacloprid is antagonist to the nicotinic acetyl choline receptor in the central nervous system. It disturbs the proper signal transmission system leading to excitation of nerve cell. Consequently a disorder of the nervous system occurs leading finally to the death of the treated insect.

Advantages:

• The targeted application of Gaucho, through seed treatment, reduces the contamination of environment in unprecedented way
• User friendly seed treatment formulation
• Since it gives protection to crop from sucking pests for initial 30- 40 days the sprays are not required which helps in augmentation of natural enemies. Thus ideally suited for IPM
• Gaucho does not get washed away by rain
• Application results in better crop emergence and vigorous growth
• Economical due to longer duration of pest control
