| ◆ Technical grade: |
1.Active Ingredient: 90% min. 2.Appearance: Amber colour solidified mass with a musty odour |
| ◆ Formulations: |
48% w/v E.C. (= 45.1% w/w E.C.) 48% w/v C.S. |
| ◆ Application: |
| elective systemic herbicide, absorbed principally by germinating shoots, but also by the roots. Acts by inhibition of protein synthesis and root elongation. Used pre-emergence to control annual grasses and many broad-leaved weeds in cotton, brassicas, soybeans, corn, and peanut. It is mainly absorbed by germinating shoots, secondarily by roots. It is translocated throughout the plant mainly to vegetative rather than to reproductive organs. It is rapidly metabolised in plants. Rate: 1100-6600 g a.i./ha. |
