About Pinoxaden 5.1% EC

Pinoxaden 5.1% EC is a selective post-emergent herbicide effective against specific grassy weeds in wheat, particularly Phalaris minor and Avena ludoviciana.

Key Features and Benefits

• Mode of Action: Pinoxaden works by inhibiting the enzyme Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase), which is essential for fatty acid biosynthesis in plants. This disruption leads to wilting and eventual death of the targeted weeds www.dhanuka.com+1.
