About Pretilachlor 37% EW / 50% EC
Pretilachlor is a highly effective, selective pre-emergence herbicide primarily used in paddy (rice) cultivation to control annual grasses, sedges, and broadleaf weeds. Available in 37% EW (Emulsion in Water) and 50% EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate) formulations, it acts as a cell division inhibitor, killing weeds during germination before they compete with the rice crop
Key Benefits of Pretilachlor 37% EW / 50% EC
Selective & Safe on Rice: It is highly selective, providing a "safety shield" to transplanted paddy plants while being lethal to target weeds.
Broad-Spectrum Control: Effectively controls major paddy weeds, including Barnyard grass (Echinochloa spp.), Sedges (Cyperus difformis, C. rotundus), and various broad-leaved weeds.
Long-Lasting Residual Action: A single application provides weed control for the critical first 3040 days, reducing the need for manual weeding and secondary herbicide applications.
Early Protection: As a pre-emergence herbicide, it eliminates weed competition for nutrients, light, and space from the very beginning of the crop cycle.
Prevents Stunting: It is safe for all known rice varieties, with no negative impacts like stunting or yellowing, and often provides a greening effect
How to Use Pretilachlor 37% EW / 50% EC
Apply Pretilachlor as a pre-emergence herbicide to rice fields soon after sowing or transplanting. The product is emulsifiable in water, ensuring even distribution. Use compatible spraying equipment and follow dosage as per label instructions. Avoid mixing with strongly alkaline substances.
Benefits of Pretilachlor for Paddy Cultivation
Pretilachlor offers targeted selective weed control, allowing rice plants to grow without competition. By inhibiting cell division in weeds, it reduces their emergence and impact throughout the early stages, translating to higher crop yields and easier field management for farmers.
Safe Storage and Handling Recommendations
Store Pretilachlor in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep the container tightly closed and out of reach of children and animals. Follow local regulations for safe disposal of containers after use.
