Twigamexyl

Twigamexyl 80EC is a highly effective post-emergence herbicide designed specifically for controlling a wide range of grass weeds in wheat, rye, and triticale crops. It contains a combination of active ingredients, Clodinafop-propargyl and Cloquintocet-mexyl, which work synergistically to ensure selective and efficient weed control.

Features

• Post-emergence herbicide targeting annual grass weeds, including Wild Oats (Avena), Black-grass (Alopecurus), Love grass (Setaria spp.), Wild finger millet (Eleusine indica), Guinea grass (Panicum maximum), and Ryegrass (Lolium spp.).
• Acts through leaf uptake, with symptoms of action appearing within 48 hours on susceptible grasses.
• Selective safener accelerates wheat metabolism, minimizing phytotoxic effects on the crop.
• Provides visible symptoms such as decay of nodes, chlorosis, and necrosis in grass weeds within one to three weeks, depending on environmental conditions.

Benefits

• Ensures reliable control across varying climatic conditions.
• Superior efficacy against the most common grass weed species.
• Flexible application timing with a wide window of opportunity.
• Compatible with other pesticides, facilitating integrated pest management programs.
• Favorable degradation profile, minimizing environmental impact.

Directions for Use

• Timing: Apply Twigamexyl 80EC post-emergence to cereals and grass weeds, ideally after wheat reaches the 3-leaf stage. Best results occur when grass weeds are actively growing, typically under warm and moist conditions.
• Residual Activity: Twigamexyl 80EC does not have residual activity. It controls only the grass weeds present at the time of application and does not affect later-emerging weeds.
• Rainfall Caution: Avoid application if rainfall is expected within 2 hours to prevent runoff and ensure efficacy.

Environmental and Wildlife Considerations

• Twigamexyl 80EC is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Prevent contamination of water bodies by disposing of product waste responsibly.
• Keep livestock out of treated areas to avoid unintended exposure.
