Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl 9.3% & 10% EC is a selective herbicide used primarily for controlling grassy weeds in various crops such as soybean, rice, cotton, and onion.
Highly Selective Weed ControlFenoxaprop-p-ethyl 9.3% & 10% EC delivers precision targeting of grass weeds without harming your main crops. Its selective mode of action, focused on ACCase inhibition, ensures only unwanted grasses such as barnyard grass and other Echinochloa species are eliminated. This makes it an excellent solution for rice paddies and similar cropping systems.
Quick Application, Fast ResultsFormulated as an emulsifiable concentrate, this herbicide is quickly absorbed and begins acting on weeds soon after application. With a recommended dosage of 100-120 ml per acre post-emergence, it integrates easily into standard farm routines and delivers visible results swiftly, improving crop health and yield potential.
Safe and CompatibleFenoxaprop-p-ethyl offers low risk for applicators when handled as per safety guidelines. It is compatible with most popular insecticides and fungicides (excluding alkaline-based products), simplifying multi-product tank-mixes. Always store in a cool, dry area in tightly-sealed original packaging to extend shelf life up to two years.
FAQ's of Fenoxaprop-p ethyl 9.3% & 10% EC:
Q: How should Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl 9.3% & 10% EC be applied for optimal weed control?
A: Apply Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl post-emergence at 100-120 ml per acre, diluted in the recommended water volume. Use it when target weeds are actively growing, typically at the 3-4 leaf stage, for best efficacy.
Q: What types of weeds does this herbicide target most effectively?
A: It is formulated to control grassy weeds such as Echinochloa spp. (Barnyard grass), Ischaemum spp., Dactyloctenium, and related annual or perennial grasses common in paddy and other crops.
Q: When is the ideal time to use Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl in crop cultivation?
A: The ideal time is post-emergence, once weeds have sprouted but before they grow too large-generally at the 3-4 leaf stage-to maximize weed control while minimizing crop competition.
Q: Where should this herbicide be stored to maintain its effectiveness?
A: Store Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location, away from heat and direct sunlight. Always keep it in its original, tightly-sealed HDPE container.
Q: What process does Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl use to eliminate weeds?
A: It inhibits the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) enzyme, disrupting lipid synthesis crucial for grass weed growth, leading to their effective elimination.
Q: Is Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl compatible with other agrochemicals?
A: Yes, it can be tank-mixed with most insecticides and fungicides, except with alkaline products which should be strictly avoided to prevent reduced efficacy or negative reactions.
Q: What are the benefits of using Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl 9.3% & 10% EC?
A: Key benefits include selective and efficient grassy weed control, quick release and action, compatibility with most crop protection chemicals, and low mammalian toxicity when safety measures are followed.
