IRAC Mode of Action 9.7

The IRAC Insecticide Mode of Action (MoA) Classification application provides a user-friendly, searchable database designed for mobile devices. This tool enables users to identify insecticide active ingredients and their corresponding MoA groups without requiring a data connection.

Effective insecticide resistance management (IRM) is crucial in minimizing the risk of developing resistance to specific insecticides. This can be achieved through strategies such as alternation, sequencing, or rotation of compounds from various MoA groups. The IRAC MoA application facilitates the identification of active ingredients within their respective groups, thereby assisting users in selecting appropriate treatments to enhance IRM practices.
