A selective, systemic, post-emergence herbicide for control of both annual and perennial grasses in beans, oilseed rape, sugar cane and many speciality crops.
Active ingredient
Fluazifop-p-butyl
Formulation
Contains wettable granules 250g/kg of Fluazifop-p-butyl
WHO classification
II
Mode of action
FUSILADE® is rapidly absorbed into the leaves of target grass weeds and translocated to the site of active growth where it disrupts cell division. This quickly stops further growth and prevents yield loss (from weed competition) in the crop. Sprayed grass weeds turn yellow and die back over a 1-4 week period depending on climatic conditions.
Targets
A broad spectrum of perennial and annual grass weeds.
Main crops
Mainly used in soybeans, sugar cane, and vegetables.
Main product benefits
- FUSILADE is a flexible and highly selective herbicide with a wide application window; application rates depend on the type of grass weeds and growth stage that need controlling.
- FUSILADE works in all tillage situations and readily tank mixes with complementary herbicides that extend the range of control to broadleaf weeds.
- This flexibility allows growers to tailor their own weed control program to suit local conditions.
