At the seedbed, it protects the vulnerable young seedlings from sucking pests that include green leafhopper, brown and white-backed planthopper, leaffolders, and stemborers. Available in conveniently packed 3-gram sachets, one “sakto pack” per 16L water can cover a seedbed approximately 300 square meters in size. In mango, it is recommended against mango hoppers, tip borers, thrips, cecid flies and capsid bugs. Dantop is a low dose insecticide requiring only 28 g (1 sachet) per 200 L drum spray solution.
