1. Product Overview & Description

• Active Ingredient / Technical Name: Piroxofop-Propinyl (often associated chemically or alternatively referred to as Clodinafop-Propargyl) 15% WP

• Formulation Type: Wettable Powder (WP)

• Target Crop: Wheat

• Target Weeds: Specifically designed to control grassy weeds—such as Phalaris minor (little seed canary grass / Gulli danda), wild oats, and other annual grass weeds that compete heavily with cereal crops.

• Mode of Action: It is a systemic, post-emergence herbicide absorbed primarily through the leaves, moving within the plant to inhibit lipid synthesis, effectively arresting the growth of targeted grass weeds without harming the primary wheat crop.

2. Key Benefits

• Targeted Weed Control: Offers specialized post-emergence control over stubborn grassy weeds like Phalaris minor in wheat fields.

• Crop Safety: Highly selective for wheat, ensuring the main crop is unaffected while clearing competing weeds.

• Improves Yield: By eliminating nutrient and water competition early in the crop cycle, it helps maximize crop productivity and harvest quality.

• Convenient Application: Formulated as a wettable powder, making it easy to mix and spray evenly using standard agricultural knapsack sprayers.

3. Dosage & Application Guidelines

• General Dosage: Typically packaged in small sizing variants (such as 16g packets or larger farm packs depending on field scale). (Note: Exact per-acre dosage rates vary depending on the weed infestation density; always refer to the specific label instructions provided on the product packaging).

• Application Timing: Best applied at the post-emergence stage when the wheat crop and weeds are actively growing (usually 30–35 days after sowing, when weeds are at the 2–4 leaf stage).

• Method of Application: Foliar spray mixed uniformly with clean water to ensure thorough coverage of the target weed foliage.

4. Precautions & Safety Measures

• Protective Gear: Always wear personal protective equipment (PPE) including a face mask, safety goggles, rubber gloves, and protective clothing during mixing and spraying.

• Avoid Drift: Prevent spray drift from moving toward non-target crops, water bodies, or livestock feed areas.

• Handling Warnings: Do not eat, drink, or smoke while handling or applying the product. Wash hands and exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water after application.

• Storage: Store the product tightly sealed in its original container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, safely away from children, food items, and animal feed.
