Isoxaflutole Product Description
Product Name: Isoxaflutole
Chemical Group: Isoxazole
Formulation Types: SC (Suspension Concentrate), WG (Water Dispersible Granule)
Typical Concentration: 480 g/L SC or 75% WG, depending on the formulation.
Product Overview:
Isoxaflutole is a highly effective, pre-emergence herbicide designed for the selective control of a broad spectrum of annual broadleaf and grassy weeds. It is widely used in various crops, especially in maize (corn) and soybeans. Known for its unique bleaching action, Isoxaflutole provides long-lasting residual control, making it a valuable tool for early-season weed management.
Mechanism of Action:
Isoxaflutole works by inhibiting the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), which plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of carotenoids. Carotenoids protect chlorophyll from oxidative damage; when their production is disrupted, the plant loses its ability to photosynthesize effectively. This leads to a bleaching effect on susceptible weeds, followed by their rapid death. Isoxaflutole’s systemic action ensures thorough control of both emerging and established weeds.
Application and Crop Suitability
Isoxaflutole is mainly used as a pre-emergence herbicide in crops such as:
Maize (Corn): Provides superior control of many broadleaf and grassy weeds, including pigweed, lambsquarters, foxtail, and barnyard grass. Its long residual activity helps maintain a weed-free environment during the critical early growth stages of corn, promoting healthy crop development and maximizing yield potential.
Soybeans: Used pre-emergence to target key weed species that compete with soybeans, ensuring effective early-season control and reducing the need for post-emergence applications.
Sorghum: Selective action helps manage weed populations that compete with sorghum for nutrients and water, enhancing crop establishment and reducing yield loss.
Other Suitable Crops: Isoxaflutole can also be applied in sugarcane, certain fruit and nut crops, and non-crop areas to control invasive weed species.
