UPL Ulala Insecticide (Flonicamid 50% WG)
The "Starvation Specialist" for Sucking Pests – Stops Damage in Minutes.
UPL Ulala is a specialized systemic insecticide designed to combat the toughest sucking pests in Cotton, Paddy, and Vegetables. Powered by Flonicamid (Group 29), it uses a unique mechanism that is different from traditional poisons. Instead of killing instantly, it disables the pest's ability to feed. The pest stops damaging your crop within 30 minutes and eventually starves to death, ensuring your yield remains safe and virus-free.

Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ?Immediate Feeding Stop: Pests stop sucking sap within 30 minutes of exposure. This prevents "Hopper Burn" and stops the spread of viral diseases immediately.
- ?Systemic & Translaminar: Moves upward in the plant to protect new leaves and penetrates through the leaf to kill pests hiding on the underside.
- ?️Excellent Rainfastness: Absorbs into the plant system quickly. It is rainfast within 2 hours, making it ideal for the monsoon season.
- ?Pollinator Friendly: Safe for bees and beneficial insects (like Ladybugs) once dried. It fits perfectly into Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs.
- ⏳Long Duration Control: Provides protection for 14 to 21 days, reducing the need for frequent re-spraying.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Ulala works via a unique "Starvation" mechanism. It targets the insect's nervous system responsible for feeding and balance.
[Image of sucking pest starvation mode of action]- Feeding Block: Within 30 minutes of exposure, the pest's mouthpart (stylet) is disabled. It cannot pierce the plant tissue.
- Starvation Phase: The pest may remain alive on the leaf for 2-4 days, appearing sluggish, but it causes zero damage and produces no honeydew.
- Death: The pest eventually dies from dehydration and starvation.
This mechanism is highly effective against pests resistant to Neonicotinoids (like Imidacloprid).
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pests |
|---|---|
| Cotton | Aphids, Jassids (Leafhoppers), Whiteflies, Thrips |
| Paddy (Rice) | Brown Plant Hopper (BPH), Green Leaf Hopper (GLH), WBPH |
| Vegetables (Okra, Brinjal) | Aphids, Jassids, Whiteflies |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Do not reduce the dose. Use the full 60-80g per acre to ensure resistance does not develop.
Dosage per Acre, Pump, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (per 15L Tank) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | 60 - 80 g | 200 L | 6 - 8 g | 25 Days |
| Paddy (Rice) | 60 - 80 g | 150 - 200 L | 6 - 8 g | 36 Days |
| Vegetables | 60 - 80 g | 150 L | 6 - 8 g | 10 - 15 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: Wait this many days before harvesting. For Rice export to EU/USA, observe the 36-day wait strictly.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Spray at the early vegetative stage or when pest population first crosses the threshold (e.g., 2 Jassids/leaf).
- Mixing: Ulala comes as granules (WG). Dissolve the required dose in a small bucket first, then add to the spray tank.
- Coverage: Ensure good coverage. Although it moves inside the plant, hitting the underside of leaves improves results against Whiteflies.
- Safety: Safe for pollinators if sprayed in the evening. Wear protective gear while handling.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why are the pests still moving after I sprayed?
Don't worry! Ulala stops them from feeding within 30 minutes, so your crop is safe. The pests will remain alive but sluggish for 2-4 days before starving to death.
2. Is it safe for bees?
Yes. Once the spray dries, it has no significant effect on bees, making it a great choice for crops in the flowering stage.
3. What if it rains after spraying?
Ulala is rainfast within 2 hours. If it rains 2 hours after application, you do not need to re-spray.
4. Can I use it on Bollworms?
No. Ulala is specific to Sucking Pests (Jassids, Whiteflies, Aphids). For Bollworms, use a different product like UPL Gunther or a Diamide.
5. What pack sizes are available?
It is available in 30g, 60g, 150g, 250g, and 500g packs. The 30g pack is convenient for small farmers (approx. 5 tanks).
