What is Fluchloralin used for?
Fluchloralin is used for soil incorporated applications. Translocation characteristics; root uptake and acropetal movement throughout the entire plant occurs.
What type of herbicide is Fluchloralin?
It is pre sowing selective or pre-emergence herbicide useful to control annual weeds. It is very selective to cotton, soybean, and groundnut. Also selective in peas, beans, pulses, and sunflower.
What is Group 2 herbicide?
Group 2 ALS/AHAS inhibitors. These chemicals block the normal function of an enzyme called acetolactate (ALS) actohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS). This enzyme is essential in amino acid (protein) synthesis. Without proteins, plants starve to death.
What is Group 9 herbicide?
Group 9: Aromatic amino acid inhibitors. The mode of action of these herbicides is as an amino acid synthesis inhibitor. This mode of action is specific to glyphosate (glycines), which are nonspecific herbicides that act by inhibiting the amino acid synthesis.
What is pre plant application herbicide?
Pre – plant application (PPI) Application of herbicides before the crop is planted or sown. Soil application as well as foliar application is done here.
What is group 3 pesticide?
3A. Pyrethroids. Alpha-cypermethrin, Beta-cyfluthrin, Bifenthrin, Cyfluthrin, Deltamethrin, Esfenvalerate, Fenvalerate, Lambda-cyhalothrin, Pyrethrins. 4A.
What is Group 15 herbicide?

| Trade name | Active ingredient |
|---|---|
| Stalwart | metolachlor |
| Outlook | dimethenamid |
| Zidua | pyroxasulfone |
| Harness, Warrant | acetochlor |
What are the types of herbicide?
There are two major categories of herbicides classified by mode of action: contact herbicides and translocated herbicides. Contact herbicides affect only the part of the plant that they touch.
What is a Group 5 pesticide?
Group 5: Spinosyns. Spinosad is a metabolite produced during fermentation of the actinomycete, Saccharopolyspora spinosa, which is a soil-inhabiting microorganism. Spinosad is a mixture of spinosyns A (85%) and D (15%), which are the two biologically active metabolites responsible for insecticidal activity.
What are group 27 herbicides?
Callistemones, isoxazoles, pyrazoles, and triketones (Group 27) are examples of herbicides that inhibit p-hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), which converts p-hydroxymethyl pyruvate to homogentisate.
Which herbicide is used as post emergence?
Roundup-Pro (glyphosate, Monsanto Corp.) is a systemic, postemergence herbicide which kills annual and perennial weeds. Advantages of Roundup-Pro are the systemic kill of annual and perennial weeds and low mammalian toxicity.
What is fluchloralin used for?
Fluchloralin is used for soil incorporated applications. Translocation characteristics; root uptake and acropetal movement throughout the entire plant occurs. Weed Science Society of America. Herbicide Handbook. 5th ed. Champaign, Illinois: Weed Science Society of America, 1983., p. 237
What crops can fluchloralin be used on?
Fluchloralin is selective in cotton, soybeans, peanuts, dry beans, snap beans, lima beans, peas & several vegetable crops. Weed Science Society of America.
What is the half life of fluchloralin in soil?
Fluchloralin is reported to degrade much faster in aerobic loamy sand soil than in sterile soil (2). The field dissipation half-life of fluchloralin is reported to range from 60-75 days with a mean half-life of 67 days (3).
What is the adsorption potential of fluchloralin?
AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme (1), Koc values in the range of 150-550 (2) indicate that fluchloralin is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in the water column.
