Fenobucarb 50% EC also known as BPMC (2-sec-butylphenyl methylcarbamate) is a selective carbamate insecticide that works through contact and stomach action to control brown planthopper, green leafhopper, and other sucking pests in paddy, cotton, and vegetable crops.
Krishikranti Feno-50 is the trusted choice for paddy farmers across India dealing with brown planthopper (BPH) and green leafhopper (GLH) two of the most damaging pests in rice cultivation that cause hopperburn and yield loss if not controlled at the right time.
Unlike broad-spectrum insecticides, Fenobucarb 50% EC has selective action it controls target pests without harming beneficial insects like spiders, wasps, and bees. It also has no cross-resistance with neonicotinoids making it a critical tool for resistance management in paddy hoppers.
Fenobucarb belongs to the carbamate class of insecticides. It controls pests by inhibiting the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme the same enzyme that regulates nerve signal transmission in insects.
| Mode | How It Works | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Contact Action | Kills pests immediately on contact with spray — rapid paralysis and death | Active hoppers and leafhoppers on crop surface |
| Stomach Action | AChE enzyme inhibited when pests feed on treated plants — nervous system disruption leads to death | Feeding sucking pests on leaf and stem surfaces |
Fenobucarb has a fast knockdown effect with moderately long residual action of 10–15 days in paddy. It is non-phytotoxic to rice and safe for use at all crop growth stages without risk of crop damage.

⚠️ Important Safety Information: Avoid spraying near ponds, rivers, or fish tanks — toxic to aquatic organisms. Do not spray during strong winds or high temperatures above 35°C. Observe pre-harvest interval (PHI) of 10–15 days for paddy and 7–10 days for vegetables. Wear gloves, mask, and goggles during application. Wash hands and clothes thoroughly after spraying. Store in a cool, dry place away from food, water, and livestock. Keep out of reach of children.
Fenobucarb 50% EC is primarily used for brown planthopper (BPH) and green leafhopper control in paddy and rice. It also controls aphids, thrips, and jassids in cotton and vegetables through contact and stomach action.
The recommended dose is 1.5 to 2 ml per litre of water. Per acre, use 300 to 400 ml in 200 litres of water. For a 15-litre knapsack pump, use 30 ml per pump.

Yes. Fenobucarb BPMC is the most proven carbamate insecticide for BPH control in rice. Spray 2 ml per litre directly at the base of paddy plants where BPH colonies are concentrated. Apply at the first sign of hopper infestation to prevent hopperburn.
Fenobucarb is a carbamate insecticide with no cross-resistance with neonicotinoids. Where BPH populations have developed resistance to neonicotinoids, Fenobucarb remains fully effective. It is a critical resistance management tool for paddy farmers.
Contact action begins within hours of spraying. Visible hopper knockdown is seen within 4 to 6 hours of application. Residual protection lasts 10 to 15 days in paddy fields.
Yes. Fenobucarb has selective action and does not harm spiders, wasps, and other beneficial predatory insects in paddy fields. It is also safe for bees and pollinators — unlike many broad-spectrum insecticides.
The pre-harvest interval is 10 to 15 days for paddy and rice and 7 to 10 days for vegetables. Do not spray within this period before harvesting the crop.
