Bazooka 18EC is a powerful insecticide designed for effective management of a wide range of leaf-feeding and sucking pests that threaten both field crops and horticultural produce. Its Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC) formulation ensures excellent solubility, strong adhesion, and reliable pest control under diverse conditions.

With its dual action mode—working as both a contact and stomach poison—Bazooka 18EC provides farmers with fast knockdown and long-lasting residual activity. This makes it highly effective at eliminating pest populations and preventing re-infestations. By reducing pest pressure, the product ensures crops can grow vigorously, maintain healthier foliage, and achieve maximum yields.

Bazooka 18EC is especially valued for its role in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs, offering reliable performance with reduced risk of pest resistance when used in rotation with other insecticides. It’s suitable for use on vegetables, cereals, pulses, fruits, cotton, and plantation crops, making it a versatile solution for modern farming.
