Description

Flumetralin is a selective herbicide belonging to the dinitroaniline chemical class, widely recognized for its pre-emergent activity. Its primary value lies in providing effective, long-lasting control of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in key agricultural systems. This product is essential for growers and formulators in the tobacco, cotton, and fruit crop sectors seeking reliable crop safety and yield protection.

Application

• Tobacco Sucker Control: Primary use as a contact chemical for controlling axillary bud (sucker) growth in tobacco, improving leaf quality and reducing labor costs.
• Cotton Field Herbicide: Pre-emergent application for control of troublesome weeds like barnyardgrass, crabgrass, and pigweed in cotton crops.
• Orchard and Vineyard Management: Used in established fruit trees, nuts, and vines for residual weed control in the tree row.
• Vegetable Crop Protection: Applied pre-plant or pre-emergence in certain vegetable crops for selective weed management.
• Industrial Vegetation Management: Component in non-crop herbicide formulations for areas like railways, utilities, and industrial sites.
• Formulation Ingredient: Sourced by agrochemical companies for the production of emulsifiable concentrate (EC) and other commercial herbicide formulations.
