FMC Ferterra Insecticide | Vetrivel Agro Services

Overview

FMC Ferterra is an advanced granular insecticide powered by Rynaxypyr® (Chlorantraniliprole 0.4% GR). It belongs to the Anthranilic Diamide (IRAC Group 28) class of insecticides and offers highly effective control of economically important borer pests in rice and sugarcane.

The active ingredient works by activating ryanodine receptors in insect muscles, causing immediate feeding cessation, paralysis, and eventual death. Its unique mode of action provides effective control of pests that have developed resistance to conventional insecticides while remaining selective toward beneficial insects, parasitoids, and pollinators.
