Description

Pethoxamid CAS NO 106700-29-2 is a selective pre-emergence herbicide belonging to the chloroacetamide chemical class. It is valued for its effective control of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in a variety of key crops. This compound is a critical tool for agricultural professionals and formulators seeking reliable, long-lasting residual weed management. Its primary applications are in the cultivation of corn, soybeans, sunflowers, and other major field crops.

Application

• Pre-emergence Herbicide in Corn: Provides foundational control of weeds like barnyardgrass, foxtails, and black nightshade, protecting crop yield from early-season competition.
• Soybean Crop Protection: Used in integrated weed management programs to control problematic weeds such as velvetleaf and common ragweed.
• Sunflower Field Management: Offers selective weed control, establishing a clean seedbed for optimal sunflower establishment and growth.
• Formulation into Agricultural Products: Serves as the active ingredient (AI) in the manufacturing of emulsifiable concentrates (EC), suspension concentrates (SC), and other commercial herbicide formulations.
• Weed Control in Other Field Crops: Applied in crops like potatoes and sugar beets for broad-spectrum, pre-emergence weed suppression.
• Resistance Management Tool: An important component in herbicide rotation strategies to mitigate and manage herbicide-resistant weed populations.
