Vignafuran is a chemical compound derived from plants in the Vigna genus, known for its potential applications in agriculture. It acts as a natural insect repellent and pest control agent by disrupting the behavior and reproductive systems of certain insect pests. Vignafuran works by interfering with the insect’s nervous system and hormonal regulation, leading to reduced feeding, growth, and reproduction. It is primarily used to protect crops like legumes and vegetables from insect infestations, offering an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic chemical pesticides.
