How It Works: Mode of Action
Shori works on the insect's muscular system. It utilizes the unique capillary action of paddy water to coat the stem of the plant.
- Activation: The chemical binds to the Ryanodine Receptors in the insect's muscle cells.
- Calcium Release: It forces the calcium channels to stay open, releasing all stored calcium into the muscles.
- Paralysis & Death: This causes instant muscle contraction. The larva becomes paralyzed, stops feeding immediately, and dies of starvation.
Note: This mechanism is highly specific to insects, making it safe for mammals when used correctly.

Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. This is a granular product meant for broadcasting, not spraying.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (kg / Acre) | Water Management | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paddy (Rice) | 5 kg | Keep 2-3 inches standing water | N/A (Broadcast) | 25 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last application and harvesting.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply between 15 to 25 Days After Transplanting (DAT) for the best preventive results against the first brood of stem borers.
- Mixing: Mix the 5kg bag of Shori with sand or Urea fertilizer to ensure you can spread it evenly across the whole acre.
- Water Management: Ensure there is 2-3 inches of standing water in the field. Block water outlets to hold this water for 3 to 4 days after application.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not use in fields connected to fish farming.
