Herbicides > Amide herbicides

Biochemistry Microtubule assembly inhibition. Mode of action Selective systemic herbicide, absorbed by the roots, with apoplastic translocation. Rates vary from 0.56–2.2 kg/ha. Phytotoxicity Certain varieties of lettuce may be injured at higher dose rates. Cool season grass species are also susceptible.

Uses Selective control of many annual and perennial grasses, and some broad-leaved weeds, in fruit, vines, lettuce, endive, chicory, brassicas, oilseed rape, legumes, alfalfa, clover, trefoil, sainfoin, artichokes, sugar beet, roses, ornamental trees and shrubs, warm season amenity grass, on fallow land, and in forestry. Also control of Poa annua in Bermuda grass, Zoysia, and certain other turf species. Used either pre-emergence or early post-emergence. Compatibility Compatible with many other herbicides to extend weed spectrum.

Uses Selective control of many annual and perennial grasses, and some broad-leaved weeds.
