Strengthens its crop protection portfolio, especially for paddy field
Parijat Industries (India) Limited has launched NILANIX SC, a three-way combination insecticide developed to provide control of Brown Plant Hoppers (BPH) and White Backed Plant Hoppers (“WBPH”) in paddy crop. With this launch, Parijat Industries further strengthens its crop protection portfolio.
Recently, plant hopper outbreaks have been intensified across Asia resulting in heavy paddy yield losses. The damage to standing crop sometimes reaches 100%. Addressing this challenge, NILANIX SC has been formulated for application during growth stages of paddy cultivation and controls hopper infestations.
Commenting on the launch, Mr. Uday Raj Anand, CEO – Domestic Business, Parijat Industries, said, “At Parijat, farmers are at the center of everything we do. NILANIX SC is the result of field evaluations, developed with a focus on sustainable agriculture. This milestone marks an addition to Parijat Industries’ portfolio of patented products, joining our lineup which includes Velektin, Xyfen Ultra, and Dahan.”
Highlighting the strategic importance of the launch, Mr. Surender Agarwal, Strategic Marketing Head, Parijat Industries, said, “NILANIX SC is a strategic addition to the paddy portfolio, providing a key product designed for current Indian farming conditions.”
NILANIX SC (Pymetrozine 14.8% + Fipronil 7.5% + Dinotefuran 4.8% w/w SC) will be available through Parijat Industries’ nationwide distribution network, with phased expansion planned across the remaining states in the country in the coming months.
