More specifically, the present invention relates to an insecticidal composition comprising 3-[benzoyl(methyl)amino]-N-[2-bromo-4-(1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropan-2-yl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-fluorobenzamide, (1'R ,2R ,3S, 4'S, 6S, 8'R ,10' E,12'S ,13'S, 14'E ,16'E ,20'R ,21'R,24'S) -2- [(2S)-butan-2-yl] -21', 24'- dihydroxy- 12'- [(2R,4S,5S,6S) -5- [(2S,4S,5S,6S) -5- hydroxyl -4- methoxy -6- methyloxan -2-yl] oxy-4-methoxy -6- methyloxan -2-yl] oxy-3,11',13',22'- tetramethyl spiro [2,3- dihydropyran- 6,6'- 3, 7, 19-trioxa tetracyclo [15.6.1.14,8.020,24] pentacosa- 10, 14, 16, 22-tetraene] -2'-one, and at least one compound selected from the group of insecticide; and a process of preparing said composition. The present invention further relates to an insecticidal composition that provides effective and synergistic control on broad spectrum of insect-pests and mites with one shot application by increasing plant vigor and yield of treated plants by providing residual control and increment in tolerance against insect-pets and mites.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In recent years due to long-term use of chemical insecticides, insect pests and mites are more and more resistant to insecticides. At the same time, frequent application of insecticides has increased the burden on farmers and increased environmental pollution. In the process of agricultural production, plant diseases and pests damage the roots, stems, leaves and other parts of plants, as well as fruit, seeds, tubers and other reproductive organs, so that the crop yield sharply reduces, and the quality drops seriously. Therefore, a new composition of high-efficiency, low-toxicity and environmental-friendly insecticides has become a mainstream direction in the field of insecticides research.
Further, people often increase the amount of insecticides used to kill pests, resulting in serious insecticides residue and exceeds the standard, causing great harm to human food safety. The reduction in effectiveness of insecticides due to the development of resistance is one of the forces that drives the discovery and development of new insecticides. The challenge of growing enough food to feed the world’s expanding population has driven the need to improve crop yield and quality through the control of a wide range of insect pests.
IN201831025712 patents relates to the combination comprising at least one insecticidal diamide compound, dinotefuran, and at least third insecticidal compound. The said patent application was found to be synergistic in the control of a broad spectrum of insect-pests.
IN201727026472 patent relates to the synergistic insecticidal composition comprising spinosad, abamectin or bifenthrin and at least one selected from a group of insecticides. The said patent is related to a method to prevent, control and/or treat insect infestations in plants and plant parts and/or surrounding.
This above mentioned inventions features with the repeated use of a large number of existing pesticides and the improper application of pesticides by some farmers, there is a relatively large resistance to the existing common pesticides, and the difficulty of chemical control becomes increasingly greater. Long-term use of the same single agent for pest control is highly prone to the insecticidal resistance. Combination of insecticides can greatly delay the production of insecticide resistance, improve control efficiency, expand insecticidal spectrum, and reduce the use of chemicals and environmental pollution. The active ingredients known from the literature have certain disadvantages such as insufficient control efficacy, restriction of its use due to the appearance of drug-resistant insects or pests, phytotoxicity and contamination to plants, or toxicity to human beings, fishes and the like.
In order to overcome and delay the formation and development of plant pest resistance, it is necessary to avoid using the same insecticide, but to rotate or mix it with other insecticide.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop a composition that can solve the problem of resistance of insecticides used alone. Insecticides play an important role in agricultural production and are an important guarantee for high quality and stable yield of crops. The present inventors have surprisingly developed an effective insecticidal combination which ameliorates the aforesaid shortcomings of the prior art.

Manufacturing process for mixed formulation (ZC):
Step 1: Aqueous Phase - Charge water to a stainless-steel vessel equipped with a high speed stirrer. Under agitation, add the wetting agent, dispersing agent 1and dispersing agent 2 into the vessel. Now add 50% quantity of antifoam to avoid foam generation in this vessel.
Step 2: Organic Phase - Charge heavy aromatic hydrocarbons solvent into second stainless-steel reactor. Then, slowly add melted active ingredient into the reactor. Afterwards, the wall forming material 1 is/are charged to the reactor while mixing it. Cool the reactor contents to room temperature.
Step 3: Start the high shear disperser of aqueous phase and charge the ‘Organic Solution’ into the ‘Aqueous Phase Solution’ under gravity in specific rate so that required particle size can be achieved and continue to shear for 30 min. Then, start heating the reactor to around 50 °C and stir the formulation under slow rpm for 3-4 hours so that Polymerization reaction gets completed.
Step 4: Now add wall forming material 2 so that residual wall forming material 1 can be consumed and stir for 1 more hour at the same temperature and if required add half quantity of antifoam to remove foam generating due to CO2 during reaction.
Step 5: After the wall polymerization reaction, increase the agitator to high speed. Add the rest half quantity of antifoam to the formulation. Under slight vacuum, allow the mixture to de-gas for approximately 30 minutes to remove CO2 from the solution. Add the linear polysaccharide, preservative and in last freezing agent and mix for some minutes. Add buffering agent for pH adjustment and mix well.
Step 6: Final product is sent for QC approval.
Step 7: After approval, material is packed in required pack sizes.
EXAMPLES
The present invention has been described with reference to specific embodiment which is merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the invention as defined in the present complete specification.
Biological Examples:
The synergistic pesticide action of the inventive mixtures can be demonstrated by the experiments below. A synergistic effect exists wherever the action of a combination (ready-mix) or tank mix of active ingredient is greater than the sum of the action of each of the components alone. Therefore, a synergistically effective amount or an effective amount of a synergistic composition or combination is an amount that exhibits greater pesticide activity than the sum of the pesticide activities of the individual components.
In the field of agriculture, it is often understood that the term “synergy” is as defined by Colby S.R. in an article entitled “ Calculation of the synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations” published in the journal Weeds, 1967, 15, p.20-22, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The action expected for a given combination of two or three active components can be calculated as follows:
The objective of the present studies was to study the synergism and benefits of present compositions.

The process for preparing the insecticidal composition can be modified accordingly by any person skilled in the art based on the knowledge of the manufacturing the formulation. However, all such variation and modification is still covered by the scope of present invention.
Application to the seeds is carried out before sowing, either directly on the seeds or after having pre-germinated the latter. Suitable application methods include inter alia soil treatment, seed treatment, in furrow application, and foliar application. Soil treatment methods include drenching the soil, drip irrigation (drip application onto the soil), dipping roots, tubers or bulbs, or soil injection. Seed treatment techniques include seed dressing, seed coating, seed dusting, seed soaking, and seed pelleting. In furrow applications typically include the steps of making a furrow in cultivated land, seeding the furrow with seeds, applying the insecticidally active composition to the furrow, and closing the furrow. Foliar application refers to the application of the insecticidally active composition to plant foliage, e.g. through spray equipment.
The rates of application vary within wide limits and depend on the nature of the soil, the method of application, the crop plant, the pest to be controlled, the prevailing climatic conditions, and other factors governed by the method of application, the time of application and the target crop.
The present invention is suitable for use in protecting crops, plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds, or sailor water, in which the plants are growing, from attack or infestation by animal pests. Therefore, the present invention also relates to a plant protection method, which comprises contacting crops, plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds, or soil or water, in which the plants are growing, to be protected from attack or infestation by animal pests, with an insecticidally effective amount of the present invention.
The present invention is also suitable for use in combating or controlling animal pests. Therefore, the present invention also relates to a method of combating or controlling animal pests, which comprises contacting the animal pests, their habitat, breeding ground, or food supply, or the crops, plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds, or soil, or the area, material or environment in which the animal pests grow, with an insecticidally effective amount of the present invention.

Crops are to be understood as also including those crops which have been rendered tolerant to herbicides or classes of herbicides (e.g. ALS-, GS-, EPSPS-, PPO-, ACCase- and HPPD-inhibitors) by conventional methods of breeding or by genetic engineering. An example of a crop that has been rendered tolerant to imidazolinones, e.g. imazamox, by conventional methods of breeding is Clearfield® summer rape (canola). Examples of crops that have been rendered tolerant to herbicides by genetic engineering methods include e.g. glyphosate- and glufosinate-resistant maize varieties commercially available under the trade names RoundupReady® and LibertyLink®.
Crops are also to be understood as being those which have been rendered resistant to harmful insects by genetic engineering methods, for example Bt maize (resistant to European corn borer), Bt cotton (resistant to cotton boll weevil) and also Bt potatoes (resistant to Colorado beetle). Examples of Bt maize are the Bt 176 maize hybrids of NK® (Syngenta Seeds). The Bt toxin is a protein that is formed naturally by Bacillus thuringiensis soil bacteria. Examples of toxins, or transgenic plants able to synthesise such toxins, are described in EP-A-451 878, EP-A-374 753, WO 93/07278, WO 95/34656, WO 03/052073 and EP-A-427 529. Examples of transgenic plants comprising one or more genes that code for an insecticidal resistance and express one or more toxins are KnockOut® (maize), Yield Gard® (maize), NuCOTIN33B® (cotton), Bollgard® (cotton), NewLeaf® (potatoes), NatureGard® and Protexcta®. Plant crops or seed material thereof can be both resistant to herbicides and, at the same time, resistant to insect feeding (“stacked” transgenic events). For example, seed can have the ability to express an insecticidal Cry3 protein while at the same time being tolerant to glyphosate.
Other useful plants include turf grass for example in golf-courses, lawns, parks and roadsides, or grown commercially for sod, and ornamental plants such as flowers or bushes.
