Direction of Use
For small lots, mix the required quantity of Thiamethoxam 30 % FS with 10-20 ml of water for each kg of seed to be treated. Add the slurry to the seed and rotate or stir the container(Plastic drum or bag) until the seeds are uniformly covered(usually less than a minute).
It is recommended for application as slurry with continuously operating commercial seed dressing equipment. For preparation of slurry, proceed as follows:
