Range of Application:
Used in maize, sorghum, cotton, sugar beet, fodder beet, sugar cane, potatoes, soya beans, peanuts, sunflowers, various vegetables, and pulse crops. Applied pre-plant incorporated, pre-emergence or early post-emergence, at 0.8-1.6 kg/ha. Often used in combination with broad-leaved herbicides, to extend spectrum of activity.
Control Weed:
Control of annual grasses (Echinochloa, Digitaria, Setaria, Brachiaria, Panicum, and Cyperus) and some broad-leaved weeds (Amaranthus, Capsella, Portulaca).
Mode of action:
Selective herbicide, absorbed predominantly by the hypocotyls and shoots. Inhibits germination.
