Abstract
Chromafenozide is a lepidopteran insecticide. It is highly effective in controlling various lepidopteran pests. Chromafenozide technical and formulation (80WP) was applied at 2.5 and 5.0 μg g−1 in 4 types of soils (air dried and sieved) separately in laboratory condition. Half-lives of active ingredient were calculated and found at 15.8, 21.6, 25 and 23.9 days for single dose for chromafenozide technical (99.4 %).
