About Propanil 80% DF

Propanil 80% DF (Dry Flowable) is a highly effective, selective post-emergence herbicide primarily used in rice farming to control grassy weeds, sedges, and broadleaf weeds, including barnyard grass. It works by inhibiting photosynthesis in weeds, leading to rapid disintegration, while being safe for rice crops, often increasing yields.

Key Pesticide/Herbicide Benefits of Propanil 80% DF:

Effective Weed Control: Targets major rice weeds like Echinochloa spp. (barnyard grass), Leptochloa (sprangletop), and sedges.
Post-Emergence Action: Best applied early (1-4 leaf stage of weeds) for maximum efficiency, usually 15-25 days after planting.
Selective & Safe: It kills weeds while the rice plant breaks it down into non-toxic products.
Dry Flowable (DF) Formula: It is a granular formulation that disperses easily in water, reducing dusting and offering better handling compared to liquid or powder forms.
Rapid Action: Inhibits photosynthesis and

fixation, causing weed death quickly.
Low Environmental Persistence: Propanil is not persistent in the soil, with a half-life of 1-3 days, making it biodegradable.

Application and Usage:

Dose: Generally recommended at 1 kg per acre.
Method: Applied as a foliar spray.
Application Timing: It is crucial to apply when rice has a strong enough stand, usually between 15 and 40 days after planting, depending on weed growth (1 to early 4 leaf stage is ideal).
