Profenofos 40% EC (also available as 720g/L EC) is a broad-spectrum organophosphorus insecticide that offers fast-acting and long-lasting protection against a wide range of crop pests. It delivers triple-action control—contact, stomach poisoning, and systemic absorption—making it a reliable tool for controlling resistant insect populations.
This product is widely used in cotton, vegetables, beans, onions, garlic, fruit trees, and more. It exhibits strong penetration ability through plant tissues, effectively reaching the insect’s nervous system where it inhibits cholinesterase activity, resulting in rapid pest knockdown.

Profenofos disrupts the function of the insect nervous system by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, an essential enzyme for neurotransmission. Once absorbed through the insect’s cuticle or ingested, the active ingredient quickly leads to overstimulation of nerve cells, paralysis, and death. The formulation’s high oil solubility enhances tissue penetration, even under dense foliage or hot conditions.
