Lufenuron is an insect growth regulator (IGR) used in the agrochemical and fertilizer market. It is a benzoylphenyl urea compound that works by inhibiting the molting process of insects, preventing them from reaching adulthood.

Lufenuron is applied as a foliar spray, soil drench, or seed treatment. It is considered to be a safe and effective pest control option, as it does not harm beneficial insects or other non-target organisms.
