BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:
Combination of insecticides are used to broaden the spectrum of control of insect, to improve the pest control with synergistic effect, reduce dosage, thereby reducing environmental impact, to broaden the spectrum of control, i.e. chewing and sucking insects at a time, decrease chances of development and management of resistance and to enhance residual control so lesser the number of sprays for crop protections and minimizing the pesticidal load in ecosystem. The combination of insecticides at times demonstrate an additive or synergistic effect that results in an improved control on the pests.
Insecticide or pesticides are used widely and very frequently in commercial agriculture and have enabled an enormous increase in crop yields and product quality which ultimately increased the ease to farmers in term of economic advantage as well as ease of farming activities.
There are many combinations of insecticide known in the art for the control of soil borne pests. For example, US20200329703A1 patent relates to novel fungicidal compositions, to their use in agriculture or horticulture for controlling diseases caused by phytopathogens, especially phytopathogenic fungi, and to methods of controlling diseases on useful plants, especially fruits and vegetables. Further it relates to an Emamectin benzoate insecticide along with insecticide Chlorantraniliprole, tetraniliprole and flubendiamide.

The present invention provides formulation for the aforesaid composition and method of preparation thereof.
Emamectin benzoate is an insecticide, with a mechanism of action and a strong activity against Lepidoptera as well as with and a high selectivity on useful organisms. This molecule acts if swallowed and has some contact action. It penetrates leaf tissues (translaminar activity) and forms a reservoir within the leaf. The mechanism of action is unique in the panorama of insecticides. In facts, it inhibits muscle contraction, causing a continuous flow of chlorine ions in the GABA and H-Glutamate receptor sites.
Diamide group of insecticides:
Anthranilic diamides are an important commercial synthetic class of insecticides (IRAC Group 28) that bind to the ryanodine receptor with selective potency against insect versus mammalian forms of the receptor. Chlorantraniliprole is first of the anthranilic diamide insecticides. It is a ryanodine receptor activator and is used to protect a wide variety of crops, including corn, cotton, grapes, rice and potatoes. It has a role as a ryanodine receptor agonist. It is an organobromine compound, a member of pyridines, a member of pyrazoles, a pyrazole insecticide, a member of monochlorobenzenes and a secondary carboxamide.
Chlorantraniliprole is a novel anthranilic diamide insecticide that functions via activation of the insect ryanodine receptors within the sarcoplasmic reticulum causing impaired regulation of muscle contraction. Ryanodine receptor channels regulate the release of internal calcium stores and are important in muscle contraction. Sustained release of calcium levels within the cytosol leads to muscle contraction, paralysis and eventual death of the organism. While insects possess a single form of the ryanodine receptor distributed in muscle and neuronal tissue, mammals possess three forms which are widely distributed in muscle and non-muscle tissues.
The present inventors believe that the combination of the present invention surprisingly results in a synergistic action. The combinations of the present invention allow for a broad spectrum of pest control and has surprisingly improved plant vigour and yield. The broad spectrum of the present combination also provides a solution for preventing the development of resistance.
The synergistic composition has very advantageous curative, preventive and systemic fungicidal properties for protecting cultivated plants. As has been mentioned, said active ingredient composition can be used to inhibit or destroy the pathogens that occur on plants or parts of plants (fruit, blossoms, leaves, stems, tubers, roots) of different crops or useful plants, while at the same time those parts of plants which grow later are also protected from attack by such pathogens. Active ingredient composition has the special advantage of being highly active against diseases in the soil that mostly occur in the early stages of plant development.
The synergistic composition of pesticide are used to protect the crops and plants from insect and fungus pests. The lists of the major crops on which the present innovative compositions may be used include but are not limited to GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) and Non GMO varieties of Cotton (Gossypium spp.), Paddy (Oryza sativa), Wheat (Triticum aestavum), Maize (Zea mays), Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum), Soybean (Glycin max), Peanut (Arachis hypogaea), Mustard (Brassica juncea), Green gram (Vigna radiata), Chickpea (Cicer aritinum), Brinjal (Solanum melongena), Cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata), Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis), Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) , Onion (Allium cepa L.), Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), Potato (Solanum tuberosum), Chilly (Capsicum annum), Garlic (Allium sativum), Bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria), Banana (Musa spp.), Citrus groups (Citrus spp.), Grape (Vitis vinifera), Guava (Psidium guajava), Pomegranate (Punica granatum), Turmeric (Curcuma longa), Ginger (Zingiber officinale), Cumin (Cuminum cyminum).
The composition according to the invention can be applied to any and all developmental stages of pests, such as egg, larva, pupa, and adult.

The term "health of a plant" or "plant health" is defined as a condition of the plant and/or its products. As a result of the improved health, yield, plant vigor, quality and tolerance to abiotic or biotic stress are increased. Noteworthy, the health of a plant when applying the method according to the invention, is increased independently of the pesticidal properties of the active ingredients used because the increase in health is not based upon the reduced pest pressure but instead on complex physiological and metabolic reactions which result for example in an activation of the plant's own natural defense system. As a result, the health of a plant is increased even in the absence of pest pressure. Accordingly, in an especially preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the health of a plant is increased both in the presence and absence of biotic or abiotic stress factors. The above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent or they may result from each other. An increase in plant vigor may for example result in an increased yield and/or tolerance to abiotic or biotic stress. One indicator for the condition of the plant is the yield. "Yield" is to be understood as any plant product of economic value that is produced by the plant such as grains, fruits in the proper sense, vegetables, nuts, grains, seeds, wood (e.g. in the case of silviculture plants) or even flowers (e.g. in the case of gardening plants, ornamentals). The plant products may in addition be further utilized and/or processed after harvesting.
In an especially preferred embodiment of the invention, the yield of the treated plant is increased.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the yield of the plants treated according to the method of the invention, is increased synergistically.
According to the present invention, "increased yield" of a plant, in particular of an agricultural, silvicultural and/or horticultural plant means that the yield of a product of the respective plant is increased by a measurable amount over the yield of the same product of the plant produced under the same conditions, but without the application of the mixture according to the invention.
Increased yield can be characterized, among others, by the following improved proper-ties of the plant: increased plant, weight, increased plant height, increased biomass such as higher overall fresh weight (FW), increased number of flowers per plant, higher grain yield, more tillers or side shoots (branches), larger leaves, increased shoot growth, increased protein content, increased oil content, increased starch content, increased pigment content, increased leaf are index.
According to the present invention, the yield is increased by at least 5 %, preferable by 5 to 10 %, more preferable by 10 to 20 %, or even 20 to 30 % compared to the untreated control plants or plants treated with pesticides in a way different from the method according to the present invention. In general, the yield increase may even be higher.
The advantages of innovative combination includes the one shot control of soil hibernating (termites, whitegrub, root weevil, root feeder) and foliage feeding insects (stem borers, internode borers, sap suckers etc.). It also delays or prevent the resistance development in insect-pests.It helps to increase the yield of treated plants (cereals, pulses, oilseeds, fiber crop, sugar crops, leafy vegetables, tuber crops, fruit crops, flowers, ornamentals etc.) which helps to increase in yield due to more number of tillers, more branches and sub branches, more number of flowers, and more number of fruits. It also Increases the plant vigor and improves the quality (means visual appearance, color, size, shape etc.) in grains, fruits, fiber, flowers, tuber, bulb, rhizomes, straw, leaves and other plant parts and plant products.
The process for preparing the present Granular agrochemical composition comprising 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.

Step 6-Finally send samples to QC for quality check.
Biological Examples:
The granular compositions of emamectin benzoate+diamide insecticide+insecticide has been developed in the laboratory and evaluated under field condition in terms of bio-efficacy, residual control and compared with conventional combinations and tank mixes.
A synergistic effect exists wherever the action of a combination 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 pesticidal activity than the sum of the pesticidal 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:
Experiment 1: Bioefficacy of granular composition of Emamectin benzoate+Chlorantraniliprole+Insecticide on insect-pests control and yield attributing characters in rice crop
Crop : Rice
Location : Dhamtari, Chattishgarh
Number of Treatments: Twenty four
Replication : Two
Method of Application: Soil application-manual broadcasting at 22 DATP (Days after transplanting)
Observation Methods:
Stem borer control (%): Stem borer (Scirpophaga incertulas) causes damage as dead heart (damaged tiller) symptoms in vegetative growth stage and white ear (tillers with damaged ear head/panicles) symptoms in reproductive stage.
Dead heart symptoms: Count the number of healthy and damaged tillers (dead heart) per hill. Record the observations from 10 hills per plot at 50 DATP (days after transplanting). Calculate Dead Heart (%) incidence and recalculate stem borer(%) control.
White ear symptoms: Count the number of tillers with healthy earhead and white ear per hill. Record the observations from 10 hills per plot at 100 DATP. Calculate white ear incidence (%) and recalculate stem borer control (%).
Leaf folder (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis) control (%): Count the number of damaged leaflet and healthy leaflet per hill. Record the observations from 10 hills per plot at 40 DATP. Calculate Leaf folder damage (%).
Brown Plant Hopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens) Control (%): Count the number of live BPH (nymph+adult stage) per hill. Record the observations from 10 hills per plot at 75 DATP. Calculate BPH control (%).
Productive Tillers Count: Count the number of productive tillers per hill. Record the observations from 20 hills per plot.
