Carbofuran 3% C.G. is an encapsulated insecticide known for its systemic action, which means it’s absorbed by plants through the roots and distributed throughout its organs where it controls pests. It’s effective against a variety of soil insects, foliage feeders, borers and nematodes in crops like rice, cotton and vegetables. It works by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, leading to the accumulation of acetylcholine, which disrupts the nervous system of pests. It’s important to handle it with care due to its high toxicity. Always follow the label instructions and safety measures when using such chemicals.
