Pymetrozine is a pyridine azomethine compound that selectively disrupts the feeding behaviour of sap-sucking insects, including planthoppers, by affecting sensory nerve function. Affected insects stop feeding shortly after exposure and eventually starve, even though the compound does not act directly on the nervous system in the manner of typical neurotoxic insecticides. Pymetrozine is classified under IRAC Group 9B (chordotonal organ modulators).

Polomaxx (Pymetrozine 50% WG) is mixed with the recommended volume of water and applied as a foliar spray directed at the base of the plant canopy in rice, using standard knapsack or boom sprayers, following the approved product label.

Use strictly as per the directions on the approved product label Wear appropriate personal protective equipment during mixing and spraying Avoid spray drift onto sensitive or non-target crops Keep out of reach of children and away from food, feed, and water sources Store in a cool, dry place in original packaging
