Description
It is a selective, early post emergence herbicide used for the effective control of Phalaris minor in Wheat crop. It also control broad-eaved weeds like Chenopodium album, Melilotus alba and other problematic weeds.
Mode of action:
It inhibits synthesis of enzymes acetolactate (ALS), also called acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS), which is responsible for the biosynthesis of the amino acids, isoleucine, leucine, and valine. Inhibiting the synthesis of amino acids, it stops the metabolic process, within the weed plants which result drying of weeds and ultimately death of weed.
Benefits:
- Effectively controls the narrow and broad leaf weeds in wheat.
- Long duration control
