Product Overview:
Sumi Prempt (or Sumiprempt) is a dual-action insecticide manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical India Ltd. It combines a juvenile-hormone analog / insect growth regulator (Pyriproxyfen 5%) with a fast-acting pyrethroid (Fenpropathrin 15% EC). It is designed to control both sucking pests (especially whitefly) and chewing pests (bollworms, fruit and shoot borers) on several crops (cotton, chilli, brinjal, okra) with both immediate knock-down effect via the pyrethroid and longer-term suppression via the IGR’s effect on larval / nymphal stages.
Summary:
Feature | Details |

Formulation Type | Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC) |
Mode(s) of Action | - Fenpropathrin: Pyrethroid; rapid knock-down by affecting insect nervous system (via sodium channels) - Pyriproxyfen: Insect Growth Regulator; disrupts larval/nymph development, interfering with moulting or maturation / egg laying. |

Dosage / Rate | ~ 200-300 ml per acre for many crops. Also in liquid spray form: about 1.5-2 ml per litre of spray water depending on pest pressure. |
Application Method / Timing | Foliar spray; apply at early infestation of pests; ensure full coverage. Use during cooler hours to reduce volatilization and loss. |
Compatibility / Other Notes | Good compatibility with other agricultural chemicals; rain-fast to some extent. Complete coverage is important. Use only recommended dosage. Safety gear required. |
Benefits:
- Dual-Action Control - Combines an insect growth regulator (Pyriproxyfen) and a pyrethroid (Fenpropathrin), so it attacks pests at multiple life stages (eggs, larvae/nymphs, and adults).
- Rapid Knock-down + Long-Term Suppression - Fenpropathrin gives quick control (contact effect), while Pyriproxyfen helps reduce future pest populations.
- Effective Against Both Sucking & Chewing Pests - Good for pests like whiteflies (sucking) and bollworms, shoot & fruit borers (chewing) in crops like cotton, chilli, brinjal, okra.
- Rainfastness - Maintains efficacy even after rainfall, which helps with field conditions where weather is unpredictable.
- Economical & Versatile - Because it covers multiple pests and life stages in one product, farmers may need fewer sprays/chemicals, lowering cost & logistical effort.
