Corteva Agriscience’s Delegate® Insecticide: Strengthening Integrated Pest Management for Indian Farmers
14 October 2025, New Delhi: Corteva Agriscience’s Delegate® Insecticide continues to play a vital role in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs for corn, cotton, and chilli farmers across India. Recognized for its proven performance in Insect Resistance Management (IRM) and strong economic value, Delegate® remains a dependable and sustainable solution that helps farmers achieve higher productivity, profitability, and resilience against key pest pressures.
Over the years, Delegate® has earned the trust of farmers for its fast-acting and effective control of key pests such as Fall Armyworm (FAW) in corn and thrips in cotton and chilli. Moving beyond conventional methods, Delegate® enables farmers to adopt precision-based crop protection practices that balance efficacy with environmental safety.
Delegate® offers a reliable residual effect that provides extended protection, reducing the need for frequent spraying and helping farmers save time, labor, and input costs. When applied at key crop stages, it delivers optimum results. In corn, timely applications at the early growth stages protect plants from FAW infestation, ensuring uniform growth and improved cob quality. In cotton, sprays timed during flowering and boll formation manage thrips and enhance boll development. Similarly, in chilli, applications during flowering and fruit-setting stages prevent thrips damage, resulting in superior fruit quality and better yields.
Strategic Pest Management
Integrating Delegate® within modern IPM programs enables farmers to shift from reactive pest control to a strategic, long-term management approach. It provides consistent results across diverse cropping systems, ensuring high-quality yields and improved profitability. Farmers benefit not only from reduced pesticide usage but also from stronger, more resilient crops and healthier farm ecosystems.
