Pirenox 48 EC

Advanced Grain Protection Against Complex Pests

For agronomists managing cereal crops, effective pest control is the cornerstone of yield stability. Pirinex 48 EC, developed by the Israeli firm Makhteshim Chemical Works Ltd. (part of the Makhteshim Agan Industries Group), stands as a proven solution for protecting wheat fields. Based on chlorpyrifos, this insecticide is designed to provide both rapid knockdown and long-term control against a broad spectrum of pests.

Why Pirinex 48 EC Stands Out

The primary advantage of Pirinex 48 EC lies in its dual mode of action. By combining contact and systemic effects, the product ensures that pests are eliminated not only upon direct spray contact but also through ingestion and residual activity within the plant tissues. This is crucial for managing elusive pests such as the cereal leaf beetle, bread beetle, or aphids that often hide deep within the crop canopy.

• Comprehensive Coverage: Highly effective against a wide range of pests, including the red-breasted cereal beetle, sunn pest, wheat flies, aphids, and thrips.
• Proven Israeli Quality: The emulsifiable concentrate formulation from Makhteshim Agan is known for its stability and reliability, ensuring consistent performance when applied at the recommended rate of 0.75–1.5 L/ha.
• Operational Flexibility: The ability to perform 1–2 applications allows farmers to adapt their pest management strategy to the specific infestation pressure on winter and spring wheat.

As a Class 2 hazard substance, strict adherence to safety protocols and the use of appropriate protective equipment is required. With a pre-harvest interval of 30 days, it is well-suited for mid-season control, providing the necessary protection during critical growth stages.

The Optimal Choice for Your Fields

Pirinex 48 EC is designed for agricultural operations that prioritize proven, high-performance solutions. It is an ideal tool for situations requiring a strong knockdown effect coupled with lasting residual protection. For farmers looking to secure their yield against diverse pest complexes, this product offers the reliability and effectiveness expected from a world-class Israeli manufacturer.
