Ethofumesate 900 g/l emulsifiable concentrate

Description

Diethylammonium chloride

Generic Name: Acetochlor Emulsifiable Concentrate

Dosage Form and Strength: 900 grams per liter of emulsifiable concentrate (EC)

English Name: Acetochlor 900 g/L EC

Product Category: Selective pre-emergence herbicides

Product Overview

Acetochlor is an amide-type selective herbicide primarily used for pre-emergence soil-applied weed control in dryland crops such as corn, soybeans, peanuts, and cotton. When applied to the soil, the product forms a protective film that effectively controls annual grass weeds and certain broadleaf weeds.

Suitable for large-scale crop management in modern agriculture, it can significantly reduce the cost of manual weeding, improve crop uniformity, and enhance field management efficiency.

Mechanism of Action of Active Ingredients

Atrazine is primarily absorbed through the young shoots and roots of weeds; during weed germination, it inhibits protein synthesis and cell division, thereby hindering the normal growth of weed seedlings.

Its functional characteristics include:

• Inhibits the elongation of young weed shoots
• Interferes with fatty acid and protein synthesis
• Prevents weeds from emerging normally
• Provides excellent control of newly emerging weeds

Acetochlor is a pre-emergence soil-applied herbicide that is less effective against large weeds that have already emerged; therefore, it is recommended to apply the herbicide before weeds emerge.

Product Features

1. Excellent weed control through canopy closure

It is highly effective against annual grass weeds, including:

• Weeds
• Foxtail Grass
• Matang
• Cow's-tail Grass
• Wild Oats

It also controls certain broadleaf weeds.

2. Long-lasting

After application, the herbicide forms a stable film on the soil surface, with residual efficacy generally lasting 30–50 days, effectively reducing the recurrence of weeds.

3. Suitable for a wide range of crops

Can be widely used in:

• maize
• soybeans
• Peanuts
• wool
• Sugarcane
• Dryland crops such as rapeseed

4. Flexible to Use

It can be used as a single application or mixed with other herbicides to broaden the spectrum of broadleaf weed control.

5. Reduce labor costs

A single application effectively controls early-season weeds, significantly reducing the number of manual weeding sessions, making it suitable for large-scale cultivation.

Dosage

crop	prevention and treatment target	Recommended Dosage	Period of Use	Instructions for Use
Cornfield	Annual grass weeds	100-150 ml/acre	post-sowing before seedling	Soil spraying
Soybean Field	Grass weeds and some broadleaf weeds	120–180 milliliters per mu	post-sowing before seedling	mist evenly
Peanut Field	barnyard grass, crabgrass, etc.	100-150 ml/acre	post-sowing before seedling	Soil Treatment
Cotton Field	Annual weeds	120–200 milliliters per mu	post-sowing before seedling	Enclosed Spray

The actual application rate should be adjusted based on soil type, soil moisture conditions, weed density, and local plant protection requirements.

Guidelines for use

Application Recommendations

• It is recommended to apply the herbicide after sowing and before weeds emerge.
• Keeping the soil moderately moist helps the pesticide work effectively.
• Spray evenly to ensure a complete film of the pesticide forms on the soil surface.

Important Notes

• Under drought conditions, shallow soil mixing is recommended to improve the stability of pesticide efficacy.
• Avoid overspray and missed spots
• For sandy soil, the application rate should be reduced appropriately.
• Use with caution before and after heavy rain to prevent phytotoxicity.

Safety Distances and Protective Measures

• Protective gear should be worn when applying the pesticide.
• Avoid contact with skin and eyes
• Apply the medication away from aquaculture areas
• Clean the application equipment promptly after use.
