Product Description:

Carpropamid is a specialized pre-emergent herbicide designed for selective weed control in paddy rice fields. It effectively controls annual grasses, especially Echinochloa spp. (barnyard grass), one of the most damaging weeds in rice cultivation. Carpropamid works by inhibiting very-long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) synthesis, disrupting weed seed germination and early growth, while being safe for rice seedlings when used as directed.

Due to its excellent residual activity, Carpropamid offers season-long weed suppression with a single application. It is ideal for use in direct-seeded and transplanted rice systems, and can be integrated into resistance management strategies for sustainable weed control.

Key Features & Benefits:

• ✅ Highly Effective Against Barnyard Grass (Echinochloa spp.)

• ✅ Long Residual Control for extended weed suppression

• ✅ Low Solubility and High Soil Binding – minimizes leaching and runoff

• ✅ Safe for Paddy Rice under recommended application

• ✅ Resistant to degradation in flooded fields, ideal for wetland use

• ✅ Supports Integrated Weed Management (IWM) strategies
