Council® activ is the latest post-emergent Rice herbicide that offers highly effective weed control resulting in high productivity and savings of time and labor cost. It can be used for transplanted as well as direct-seeded rice (wet DSR).
Chemical Composition :
- Triafamone 20%, and
- Ethoxysulfuron 10% WG.
Mode of Action:
-
In weeds, Council® activ is taken up by leaves and is metabolized into N-demethylation and this metabolite strongly inhibits acetolactate synthase (ALS). Based on the recommended application rate, it can be safely used for Rice crop.
- In susceptible weeds, ethoxysulfuron is mainly taken up by the weed leaves and is translocated within the plant and strongly inhibits acetolactate synthase.
Features:
- Can be used in transplanted as well as direct-seeded rice (wet DSR)
- Offers control of grasses, sedges, and broadleaf weeds
- Superior residual effect and crop safety
- One-shot and a season-long weed control solution.
Crops and Target Weeds:
- Time of application: 10 to 15 days after planting OR 2 to 4 weed leaf stage
