BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:

Combination of insecticides are used to broaden the spectrum of control of insect, to improve the pest control with synergistc 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 as a part of an agriculture prctices. This has enabled an enormous increase in crop yields and product quality which increases ease for performing farming activities and ultimately increased economic advantage.
Plant Growth Enhancers (PGEs) are typically any substance or mixture of substances intended to accelerate or slow down the rate of growth or ripening, or otherwise change the development of plants, or to produce plants. Some plant growth regulators protect plants from biotic and abiotic stress. They give tolerance to extreme temperatures, both high and low, to drought, to high salt content, which are some examples of abiotic stresses that plants can undergo. PGE allows plants to withstand abiotic stresses by controlling the natural expression of hormones in the plant. Plant growth regulators induces resistance and increases tolerance in plant against biotic stress by insect-pests and diseases.
There are many combinations of insecticide along with plant growth enhancers known in the art for the control of soil borne pests. For example, CA2723616 patent relates synergistic combinations comprising a sulfoximine insecticide. The compound further relates to mixture comprises insecticides selected from methoxyfenozide and emamectin-benzoate as a part of the composition.

There is however a need for improvement of these combinations. Single active combinations used over a long period of time has resulted in resistance. With the onset of resistance to certain pests, there is a need in the art for a combination of actives that decreases chances of resistance and improves the spectrum of insect - pest control.
However still there is a need for a composition comprises an insecticide selected from class of diacylhydrazines; at least one insecticide selected from the class mectins; at least one plant growth enhancer selected from the group of auxin, cytokinin, ethylene modulators, gibberellins, growth inhibitors, growth retardants, growth stimulators, unclassified growth regulators and micronutrients or mixture thereof which overcomes some of the existing problems and can be prepared easily without much complex manufacturing process.
In general use, the pesticide actives are used in the form of a dilute aqueous composition because it can attain a good interaction with the target organism, such as plants, fungi and insects. However, most active pesticide compounds that are used as pesticides are only sparingly or even insoluble in water. The low solubility of such compounds present the challenges and difficulties to formulator in formulating pesticide compounds in stable formulations that can be easily stored for a long time and which still have a high stability and effective activity until end use. This problem especially occurs and may get worsen if more than one active compound is present in the composition.
Therefore, one object of the present invention is to provide improved combinations of insecticides for the control of foliar feeder and sucking pests. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method and a composition for controlling insect pests.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide improved combinations of insecticides that promote plant health.

Diacylhydrazines group of insecticide:
Diacylhydrazines are the only group of ecdysone receptor agonist insecticides, which induce premature molting in insects by mimicking the action of the molting hormone ecdysone. Activity is limited to Lepidoptera and Coleoptera, and because the compounds do not penetrate the cuticle well, they must be ingested. Ecdysone receptor agonists provide rapid control in comparison to most insect growth regulators, causing feeding cessation within 3 to 14 hours.
Diacylhydrazine insecticides bind in the ecdysone binding site of the ecdysone receptor-usp dimer, causing it to activate ecdysone-responsive genes that are normally activated during molting and metamorphosis. One of the earliest symptoms, occurring within 3 to 14 hours, is feeding cessation, a normal effect of ecdysone that allows insects to clear food from the gut in preparation for molting. Separation of the old cuticle from the epidermis and synthesis of the new cuticle begins during this time also. The continued activation of ecdysone receptors, in contrast to the brief activation by the pulse of ecdysone in a normal molt, does not allow the proper timing of gene activation. This results in an improperly formed cuticle and mouth parts that are soft and mushy and unable to break the insect out of the old cuticle. The selectivity of diacylhydrazines for Lepidoptera is due in large part to the high selectivity for lepidopteran ecdysone receptors.
Environmental and Toxicological Considerations: Diacylhydrazines have an excellent environmental profile, are essentially non-toxic to mammals and other vertebrates, and have exhibited low toxicity towards most non-target invertebrates, including beneficial insects and bees
Methoxyfenozide is a carbohydrazide that is hydrazine in which the amino hydrogens have been replaced by 3-methoxy-2-methylbenzoyl, 3,5-dimethylbenzoyl, and tert-butyl groups respectively. It has a role as an environmental contaminant, a xenobiotic and an insecticide. It is a carbohydrazide and a monomethoxybenzene. It derives from a N'-benzoyl-N-(tert-butyl) benzohydrazide. Methoxyfenozide acts as an insecticide on insects that may be directly harmful, as those acting as disease vectors, or indirectly harmful, as destroyers of crops, food products, or textile fabrics.
Plant growth enhancers:
Plant growth enhancers are defined as small, simple chemicals produced naturally by plants to regulate their growth and development.
Plant growth enhancers can be of a diverse chemical composition such as gases (ethylene), terpenes (gibberellic acid) or carotenoid derivatives (abscisic acid). They are also referred to as plant growth substances, phytohormones or plant hormones.
Plant growth hormones are organic compounds which are either produced naturally within the plants or are synthesized in laboratories. They profoundly control and modify the physiological processes like the growth, development, and movement of plants.
Auxins
Alpha-naphthyl acetic acid is a naphthylacetic acid substituted by a carboxymethyl group at position 1. It has a role as a synthetic auxin. It has IUPAC name as 2-naphthalen-1-ylacetic acid. Increase the yield and quality of the crop. It is found to induce early and uniform profuse flowering and reduces the flower & fruit drop, prevent fall of unripe fruit and enlarge fruit size, increases the flower formation, fruit set, seed set and rate of maturity which result in higher yield. Further it is found to be ompatible to be used along with other fertilizer & pesticides.
Gibberlins:
Gibberellic acid is a simple gibberellin, a pentacyclic diterpene acid promoting growth and elongation of cells. It affects decomposition of plants and helps plants grow if used in small amounts, but eventually plants develop tolerance to it. Gibberellic acid is a very potent hormone whose natural occurrence in plants controls their development. Since GA regulates growth, applications of very low concentrations can have a profound effect while too much will have the opposite effect. Gibberellins have a number of effects on plant development. They can stimulate rapid stem and root growth, induce mitotic division in the leaves of some plants, and increase seed germination rates.
Moreover oral toxicity of Gibberellic acid (GA3) has been evaluated in S. littoralis and L.migratoria insect species. Researchers observed that GA3 caused significant reduction in food consumption in both insect species which led to larval weight loss. GA3 toxicity was also demonstrated by larval mortality due to exuviation difficulties.
Growth retardant
Paclobutrazol (PBZ) is a plant growth retardant and triazole fungicide. It is a known antagonist of the plant hormone gibberellin. It acts by inhibiting gibberellin biosynthesis, reducing internodal growth to give stouter stems, increasing root growth, causing early fruitset and increasing seedset in plants such as tomato and pepper. PBZ has also been shown to reduce frost sensitivity in plants. Moreover, paclobutrazol can be used as a chemical approach for reducing the risk of lodging in cereal crops. PBZ is used by arborists to reduce shoot growth and has been shown to have additional positive effects on trees and shrubs. Among those are improved resistance to drought stress, darker green leaves, higher resistance against fungi and bacteria, and enhanced development of roots. Cambial growth, as well as shoot growth, has been shown to be reduced in some tree species.
Growth stimulant
Triacontanol is a fatty alcohol of the general formula C30H62O, also known as melissyl alcohol or myricyl alcohol. It is found in plant cuticle waxes and in beeswax. Triacontanol has been reported to increase the growth of plants by enhancing the rates of photosynthesis, protein biosynthesis, the transport of nutrients in a plant and enzyme activity, reducing complex carbohydrates among many other purposes. The fatty alcohol appears to increase the physiological efficiency of plant cells and boost the potential of the cells responsible for the growth and maturity of a plant.
Brassinolide is a plant hormone. The first isolated brassinosteroid, it was discovered when it was shown that pollen from rapeseed (Brassica napus) could promote stem elongation and cell division. The biologically active component was isolated and named brassinolide.
Silicic acid is important, very important. It acts as a bio-stimulant for the growth of the plant and helps the plant to overcome infections and stress factors like heat, drought and salinity.So, when bio-active silicic acid is added, plants show an improved growth, higher yield, reduced mineral toxicities and better disease and insect resistance. Moreover, silicon stimulates the beneficial micro-organisms in the (top) soil resulting in synergistic effects for the uptake of nutrients by the plant. Moreover, application of silicic acid along with half dose of recommended pesticide as foliar spray increased the grain and straw yield.
Salicylic acid is a monohydroxy benzoic acid that is benzoic acid with a hydroxy group at the ortho position. It has IUPAC name as 2-hydroxybenzoic acid. Salicylic acid is a phenolic phytohormone and is found in plants with roles in plant growth and development, photosynthesis, transpiration, ion uptake and transport. Salicylic acid is involved in endogenous signalling, mediating in plant defence against pathogens. It plays a role in the resistance to pathogens by inducing the production of pathogenesis-related proteins. It is involved in the systemic acquired resistance in which a pathogenic attack on one part of the plant induces resistance in other parts. The signal can also move to nearby plants by salicylic acid being converted to the volatile ester methyl salicylate. Methyl salicylate is taken up by the stomata of the nearby plant, and once deep in the leaf, is converted back to salicylic acid to induce the immune response.
Growth inhibitors
Mepiquat chloride is a quaternary ammonium salt consisting of equimolar amounts of mepiquat cations and chloride anions. It is having IUPAC name as 1,1-dimethylpiperidin-1-ium;chloride. A plant growth regulator, it is used in agriculture to reduce vegetative growth including sprout suppression in garlic, leeks and onions. It has a role as a plant growth retardant and an agrochemical. It is a quaternary ammonium salt and a chloride salt. It contains a mepiquat.
Jasmonic acid (JA) is an organic compound found in several plants. The molecule is a member of the jasmonate class of plant hormones. It is biosynthesized from linolenic acid by the octadecanoid pathway. The major function of JA and its various metabolites is regulating plant responses to abiotic and biotic stresses as well as plant growth and development. Regulated plant growth and development processes include growth inhibition, senescence, tendril coiling, flower development and leaf abscission

Micronutrients:
Zinc is an essential micronutrient which means it is essential for plant growth and development, but is required in very small quantities. Although zinc requirements vary among crops, zinc leaf concentrations (on a dry matter basis) in the range 20 to 100 mg/kg are adequate for most crops.
Zinc occurs in plants as a free ion, as a complex with a variety of low molecular weight compounds, or as a component of proteins and other macromolecules. In many enzymes, zinc acts as a functional, structural, or regulatory cofactor; a large number of zinc-deficiency disorders are associated with the disruption of normal enzyme activity (including that of key photosynthetic enzymes). Zinc deficiency also increases membrane leakiness as zinc-containing enzymes are involved in the detoxification of membrane-damaging oxygen radicals. Zinc may be involved in the control of gene expression; it appears important in stabilizing RNA and DNA structure, in maintaining the activity of DNA-synthesizing enzymes and in controlling the activity of RNA-degrading enzymes.
Application of zinc may not correct zinc deficiency in alkaline soils because even with the addition of zinc, it may remain unavailable for plant absorption. Foliar applications of zinc as zinc sulphate or as zinc chelate (or other organic complexes) are also widely used, especially with fruit trees and grape vines. Zinc can also be supplied as a seed treatment, or by root-dipping of transplant

Boron (B) is a micronutrient critical to the growth and health of all crops. It is a component of plant cell walls and reproductive structures. It is a mobile nutrient within the soil, meaning it is prone to movement within the soil. Because it is required in small amounts, it is important to deliver B as evenly as possible across the field. Traditional fertilizer blends containing B struggle to achieve uniform nutrient distribution. Despite the need for this critical nutrient, B is the second most widespread micronutrient deficiency problem worldwide after zinc. Boron plays a key role in a diverse range of plant functions including cell wall formation and stability, maintenance of structural and functional integrity of biological membranes, movement of sugar or energy into growing parts of plants, and pollination and seed set. Adequate B is also required for effective nitrogen fixation and nodulation in legume crops.
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 Insecticidal properties for protecting cultivated plants. As has been mentioned, said active ingredient composition can be used to inhibit or destroy the insect-pests 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 insect-pests.

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 pests may be controlled by contacting the target pest, its food supply, habitat, breeding ground or its locus with a pesticidally effective amount of the inventive mixtures or of compositions comprising the mixtures.
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 4 %, 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.
A further indicator for the condition of the plant is the plant vigor. The plant vigor becomes manifest in several aspects such as the general visual appearance. In another especially preferred embodiment of the invention, the plant vigor of the treated plant is increased. In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the plant vigor of the plants treated according to the method of the invention, is increased synergistically. Improved plant vigor can be characterized, among others, by the following improved properties of the plant: improved vitality of the plant, improved plant growth, improved plant development, improved visual appearance, improved plant stand (less plant verse/lodging), improved emergence, enhanced root growth and/or more developed root system, enhanced nodulation, in particular rhizobial nodulation, bigger leaf blade, bigger size, increased plant weight, increased plant height, increased tiller number, increased number of side shoots, increased number of flowers per plant, increased shoot growth, increased root growth (extensive root system), increased yield when grown on poor soils or unfavorable climate, enhanced photosynthetic activity (e.g. based on increased stomatal conductance and/or increased CO2 assimilation rate), increased stomatal conductance, increased CO2 assimilation rate, enhanced pigment content (e.g. chlorophyll content), earlier flowering, earlier fruiting, earlier and improved germination, earlier grain maturity, improved self-defence mechanisms, improved stress tolerance and resistance of the plants against biotic and abiotic stress factors such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, insects, heat stress, cold stress, drought stress, UV stress and/or salt stress, less non-productive tillers, less dead basal leaves, less input needed (such as fertilizers or water), greener leaves, complete maturation under shortened vegetation periods, less fertilizers needed, less seeds needed, easier harvesting, faster and more uniform ripening, longer shelf-life, longer panicles, delay of senescence, stronger and/or more productive tillers, better extractability of ingredients, improved quality of seeds (for being seeded in the following seasons for seed production), better nitrogen uptake, improved reproduction, reduced production of ethylene and/or the inhibition of its reception by the plant.
The improvement of the plant vigor according to the present invention particularly means that the improvement of any one or several or all of the above mentioned plant characteristics are improved independently of the pesticidal action of the mixture or active ingredients (components).
Another indicator for the condition of the plant is the "quality" of a plant and/or its products.
In an especially preferred embodiment of the invention, the quality of the treated plant is increased.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the quality of the plants treated according to the method of the invention, is increased synergistically.
According to the present invention, enhanced quality means that certain plant characteristics such as the content or composition of certain ingredients are increased or improved by a measurable or noticeable amount over the same factor of the plant produced under the same conditions, but without the application of the mixtures of the present invention. Enhanced quality can be characterized, among others, by following improved properties of the plant or its product: increased nutrient content, increased protein content, increased content of fatty acids, increased metabolite content, increased carotenoid content, increased sugar content, increased amount of essential amino acids, improved nutrient composition, improved protein composition, improved composition of fatty acids, improved metabolite composition, improved carotenoid composition, improved sugar composition, improved amino acids composition, improved or optimal fruit color, improved leaf color, higher storage capacity, higher processability of the harvested products.
Another indicator for the condition of the plant is the plant's tolerance or resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress factors. Biotic and abiotic stress, especially over longer terms, can have harmful effects on plants. Biotic stress is caused by living organisms while abiotic stress is caused for example by environmental extremes. According to the present invention, "enhanced tolerance or resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress factors" means (1.) that certain negative factors caused by biotic and/or abiotic stress are diminished in a measurable or noticeable amount as compared to plants exposed to the same conditions, but without being treated with a mixture according to the invention and (2.) that the negative effects are not diminished by a direct action of the mixture according to the invention on the stress factors, e.g. by its fungicidal or insecticidal action which directly destroys the microorganisms or pests, but rather by a stimulation of the plants' own defensive reactions against said stress factors.

The composition of the present invention in addition to bioactive amounts of active ingredients further comprises inactive excipients including but not limited to dispersant, anti-freezing agent, anti-foam agent, wetting agent, suspension aid, antimicrobial agent, thickener, quick coating agent or sticking agents, filler, binders, anticaking agents, absorbents and buffering agent.
A dispersant is a substance which adsorbs onto the surface of particles and helps to preserve the state of dispersion of the particles and prevents them from re-aggregating. Dispersants are added to agrochemical formulations to facilitate dispersion and suspension during manufacture, and to ensure the particles re-disperse into water in a spray tank. They are widely used in wettable powders, suspension concentrates and water-dispersible granules. Surfactants that are used as dispersants have the ability to adsorb strongly onto a particle surface and provide a charged or steric barrier to reaggregation of particles. The most commonly used surfactants are anionic, non-ionic, or mixtures of the two types. For wettable powder formulations, the most common dispersants are sodium lingo sulphonates. For suspension concentrates, very good adsorption and stabilization are obtained using polyelectrolytes, such as sodium naphthalene sulphonate formaldehyde condensates. Tristyrylphenolethoxylate phosphate esters are also used. Nonionics such as alkyl aryl ethylene oxide condensates and EO-PO block copolymers are sometimes combined with anionics as dispersants for suspension concentrates. In recent years, new types of very high molecular weight polymeric surfactants have been developed as dispersants. These have very long hydrophobic ‘backbones’ and a large number of ethylene oxide chains forming the ‘teeth’ of a ‘comb’ surfactant. These high molecular weight polymers can give very good long-term stability to suspension concentrates because the hydrophobic backbones have many anchoring points onto the particle surfaces. Examples of dispersants or dispersing agent used herein include but not limited to alkylated naphthalene sulfonate, sodium salt, Sodium salt of naphthalene sulfonate condensate, Sodium Ligno sulfonate,Sodium ploycarboxylate,EO/PO based copolymer, Phenol sulfonate, Sodium Methyl Oleoyl Taurate, styrene acrylic acid copolymer, propyleneoxide-ethyleneoxide-copolymer, polyethylene glycol 2,4,6-tristyrylphenyl ether, tristyrylphenol-polyglycolether-phosphate, tristyrylphenole with 16 moles EO, tristyrylphenol-polyglycolether-phosphate, oleyl-polyglycolether with ethylene oxide, tallow fattyamine polyethylene oxide, nonylphenol polyglycolether with 9-10 moles ethylene oxide, Copolymer of propylene oxide (PO) and ethylene oxide (EO) and/or an ethoxylated tristyrene phenol, copolymer of PO and EO is alpha-butyl-omega-hydroxypoly(oxypropylene) block polymer with poly(oxyethylene), ethoxylated tristyrene phenol is alpha-[2,4,6-tris[1-(phenyl)ethyl] phenyl]-omega-hydroxy poly(oxyethylene, poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl)-alpha-C10-15alkyl-omega-hydroxy phosphate or sulphate and/or a C10-13alkylbenzenesulfonic acid, tristyrylphenols, nonylphenols, dinonylphenol and octylphenols, styrylphenol polyethoxyester phosphate, alkoxylated C14-20fatty amines, Naphthalenesulfonic acid, sodium salt condensated with formaldehyde, polyalcoxylated alkylphenol, naphthalenesulfonic acid formaldehyde condensate, methylnaphtaline-formaldehyde-condensate sodium salt, napthalene condensates, lignosulfonates, polyacrylates and phosphate esters, calcium lignosulfonate, lignin sulfonate sodium salt or mixture thereof.
Anti-freezing agent as used herein can be selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycols, methoxy polyethylene glycols, polypropylene glycols, polybutylene glycols, glycerin and ethylene glycol. Water-based formulations often cause foam during mixing operations in production. In order to reduce the tendency to foam, anti-foam agents are often added either during the production stage or before filling into bottles. Generally, there are two types of antifoam agents, namely silicones and non-silicones. Silicones are usually aqueous emulsions of dimethyl poly siloxane while the non-silicone anti-foam agents are water- insoluble oils, such as octanol and nonanol, or silica. In both cases, the function of the anti-foam agent is to displace the surfactant from the air-water interface.
A wetting agent is a substance that when added to a liquid increases the spreading or penetration power of the liquid by reducing the interfacial tension between the liquid and the surface on which it is spreading. Wetting agents are used for two main functions in agrochemical formulations: during processing and manufacture to increase the rate of wetting of powders in water to make concentrates for soluble liquids or suspension concentrates; and during mixing of a product with water in a spray tank or other vessel to reduce the wetting time of wettable powders and to improve the penetration of water into water-dispersible granules. Examples of wetting agents used in wettable powder, suspension concentrate, and water-dispersible granule formulations include but not limited to Mono C2-6alkyl ether of a polyC2-4alkylene oxide block copolymer ,condensation product of castor oil and polyC2-4alkylene oxide, alkoxylated castor oil is available under the trade name Agnique CSO-36, a mono- or di-ester of a C12-24fatty acid and polyC2-4alkylene oxide, carboxylates, sulphates, sulphonates, alcohol ethoxylates, alkyl phenol ethoxylates, fatty acid ethoxylates, sorbitan esters, ethoxylated fats or oils, amine ethoxylates, phosphate esters, ethylene oxide - propylene oxide copolymers, fluorocarbons,alkyd-polyethylene glycol resin, polyalkylene glycol ether, apolyalkoxylated nonyl phenyl, alkoxylated primary alcohol, ethoxylated distyrylphenol, ethoxylated distyrylphenol sulphate, ethoxylated tristyrylphenol phosphate, tristyrylphenol phosphate ester, hydroxylated stearic acid polyalkylene glycol polymer, and their corresponding salts,alkyd-polyethylene glycol resin, polyalkylene glycol ether, ethoxylated distyrylphenol, ethoxylated distyrylphenol sulphate, ethoxylated tristyrylphenol phosphate, tristyrylphenol phosphate ester, tristyrylphenol phosphate potassium salt, dodecysulfate sodium salt or mixture thereof.
Suspension aid in the present description denotes a natural or synthetic, organic or inorganic material with which the active substance is combined in order to facilitate its application to the plant, to the seeds or to the soil. This carrier is hence generally inert, and it must be agriculturally acceptable, in particular to the plant being treated. The carrier may be solid (clays, natural or synthetic silicates, silica, resins, waxes, solid fertilizers, and the like or mixtures thereof) or liquid (water, alcohols, ketones, petroleum fractions, aromatic or paraffinic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, liquefied gases, and the like or mixtures thereof). Further specifically suspending agents for the present formulation is selected from Aluminum Magnesium Silicate, Bentonite clay, Silica, Attapulgite clay.
Biocides / Microorganisms cause spoilage of formulated products. Therefore antimicrobial agents are used to eliminate or reduce their effect. Examples of such agents include, but are not limited to: propionic acid and its sodium salt; sorbic acid and its sodium or potassium salts; benzoic acid and its sodium salt; p-hydroxy benzoic acid sodium salt; methyl p-hydroxy benzoate; and biocide such as sodium benzoate, 1,2- benzisothiazoline-3-one, 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one, 5-chloro-2-methyl-4- isothiazolin-3-one, potassium sorbate, para hydroxy benzoates or mixtures thereof.
Thickeners or gelling agents are used mainly in the formulation of suspension concentrates, emulsions and suspoemulsions to modify the rheology or flow properties of the liquid and to prevent separation and settling of the dispersed particles or droplets. Thickening, gelling, and anti-settling agents generally fall into two categories, namely water-insoluble particulates and water-soluble polymers. It is possible to produce suspension concentrate formulations using clays and silicas. Examples of these types of materials, include, but are limited to, montmorillonite, e.g. bentonite; magnesium aluminum silicate; and attapulgite. Water-soluble polysaccharides have been used as thickening-gelling agents for many years. The types of polysaccharides most commonly used are natural extracts of seeds and seaweeds are synthetic derivatives of cellulose or mixtures thereof. Examples of these types of materials include, but are not limited to, guar gum; locust bean gum; carrageenam; xanthan gum; alginates; methyl cellulose; sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (SCMC); hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) or mixtures thereof. Other types of anti-settling agents are based on modified starches, polyacrylates, polyvinyl alcohol and polyethylene oxide or mixtures.

Procedure: Manufacturing process of Suspension Concentrate (SC)
SC Suspension Concentrate :
Step 1 Gum Solution should be made 12-18 hour prior to use. Take required quantity of water, biocide, and defoamer and homogenise, then slowly add gum powder to it and stir till complete dissolution.
Step 2 Charge required quantity of DM water need to be taken in designated vessel for Suspension concentrate production.
Step 3 Add required quantity of Wetting agent, antifreeze, dispersing agent & suspending agents and homogenise the contents for 45 – 60 minutes using high shear homogeniser.
Step 4 Then add technical and other remaining adjuvants excluding ‘thickener’ are added to it and homogenised to get uniform slurry ready for grinding.
Step 5 Before grinding half the quantity of antifoam was added and then material was subjected to grinding in Dyno mill till desired particle size is achieved.
Step 6 Half quantity of the antifoam was added after grinding process completes and before sampling for in process analysis.
Step 7 Finally add gum solution to this formulation and send to QC for quality check.
Step 8 After approval material is packed in requied pack sizes.

BIOLOGICAL EXAMPLES:
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:

The synergistic insecticidal action of the inventive mixtures can be demonstrated by the experiments below.

FIELD BIO-EFFICACY STUDIES:
EXAMPLE 12:
Experiment 1: Control of brinjal fruit and shoot borer, Leucinoides orbonalis
Crop & Variety : Brinjal, Dolly
Location : Anand, Gujarat
Treatments : 40
Plot size : 20 sq.m
Spacing : 120 cm x 60 cm
Time of Application: 70 days after transplating
Method of Application: Foliar spray using knapsack sprayer.
Agronomic Practices: Fertilizer, irrigation, inter culturing, earthing up and weeding done as per the crop requirement.
Observation Methods:
Fruit and Shoot borer incidence (%):
Randomly 50 shoots per plot were observed and number of damaged shoots were recorded to calculate per cent shoot damage by fruit and shoot borer at 7 days after application.

Fruit and shoot borer (FSB) control calculated by below formula,

% Fruit & shoot borer data used to check the synergism by applying Colby’s formula given above.
Fruit count:
Count the number of healthy/marketable fruit from 5 plants per plot at 14 days after applications.
The percent increase in healthy fruits over prior art has been calculated.
