IRAC Group 30

Get the latest IRAC Group 30 news, research and developments covering insecticide classification, pest control and insecticide resistance management. Group 30 is a mode-of-action classification established by the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC). It includes insecticides that act as GABA-gated chloride channel allosteric modulators, disrupting nerve signalling in susceptible insects and leading to paralysis and death.

Insecticides classified under Group 30 are used in crop protection programmes targeting selected insect pests, depending on the active ingredient, crop and registered application. This group includes compounds such as broflanilide, fluxametamide and isocycloseram. Their development has expanded the range of insecticide modes of action available to manage certain pests. However, performance and approved uses vary by product and jurisdiction. Resistance management remains important, particularly where repeated applications can select for less susceptible pest populations.

Find updates on Group 30 insecticides, active ingredient registrations, product launches, field trials and regulatory decisions. Coverage also includes research into insecticide resistance, IRAC classification changes, application strategies and integrated pest management. Developments involving new formulations, crop-specific uses and stewardship recommendations provide insight into how agricultural researchers and crop protection companies are working to maintain effective pest control options.
