Bispiribac sodium Bispiribac sodium+ Metamifop Pretilachlor Thibencarb+ Bispyribac

sodium Fenoxy-p-ethyl Thibencarb + propanil Metamifop Pretilachlor + Pyribenzosim Pretilachlor + Propanil Clomazone + propanil Bispiribac sodium 20% Fenoxy-p-ethyl+

ethoxysulfuran Fenoxy-p-ethyl Quinoclorac Cyhaflo-p-butyl

Ques 02: Explain the MOAs of the Weedicides in SL?

Mode of Action Importance Examples

Amino acid synthesis (ALS) inhibitors

Total killersSulfonyl ureas- Sedge killers

Bispyribac sodium, Sulfonyl ureas, Pyribensosim, Phenoxylam

Lipid synthesis (ACC ace) inhibitors

All are grass killersHigh doses cause phytotoxicity

Fenoxyfop-p-ethyl, cyhalofop-butyl, Metamifop

Cell division inhibitors Form a thin layer on soil

Pretilachlor, Pendimethilene

Inhibition of emerging shoots

Stop cell elongation Thiobencarb

Photosynthesis inhibitors

Propanil

Pigment inhibitors Cause to bleaching effect

Clomazone

Synthethic auxins Hormonal effect MCPA, Quinclorac

Ques 03: What are the effects gained through formulating premixtures?

▪ Reducing the risk of resistant development

▪ Gaining the effects of both mixing molecules (Additive effect, Synergistic responses, Enhancement responses)

▪ Changing the time of application time

▪ Changing the AI rate of application – reduces cost of the product, increase environment friendlyness

Ques 04: What means the quality of a product?

▪ Overall the quality definces the higher efficacy, less harm to the environment and its stability

Ques 05: What desides the quality of a product?

▪ The AI and the Inert ingredients decides the quality of the product

Ques 05: What means “resistant development” ?

Inherited ability of a weed to survive against a herbicide application to which the original population was susceptible

Ques 06: What are the chemicals availablle in the market for apply I.rugossum into a 25 days old paddy field/ Late application?

• Kiseki• Nominee• Matari• Kensolo• Rice Star/ Tiller gold/ Rice Star Xtra

Ques 07: What are the chemicals availablle in the market for apply Echinocloa spp grasses into a 25 days old paddy field/ Late application?

• Kiseki• Facet• Nominee• Matari• Kensolo• Rice Star/ Tiller gold/ Rice Star Xtra

Ques 08: What are the chemicals availablle in the market for apply Leptochloa grasses into a 25 days old paddy field/ Late application?

• Kiseki• Tiller gold/ Rice Star Xtra

Ques 09: What are the identified main issues in eastern area associated with weed control?

• Poor control over C.Iria – Preferance of Pretilachlor

• Poor control over I. rugossum- Preferance of Matari• Tendency to move towards new chemicals

Ques 10: What are the suggestions to overcome above problems?

• Introduce/ Promote new possible mixtures

• Identify the niches and suggest the suitable chemicals
