Ricestar Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl 6.9 EC Herbicide

Ricestar is a selective post-emergent herbicide recommended for the control of grassy weeds, especially Echinochloa spp. in direct-seeded and transplanted rice. It contains Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl as an active ingredient which offers flexibility in the application window. When combined as a tank mix with a broadleaf herbicide like Sunrice it can offer total control of the rice weed spectrum.
Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl is absorbed by the leaves and stems of the plants and is translocated systemically. It predominantly inhibits the synthesis of fatty acids in the meristem tissue of grassy weeds.

• Effective grass control - a wide range of grasses controlled.

• Excellent plant selectivity - safe to crops at recommended dosages.

• Flexibility in application time - 3-5 leaf stages, used as Early Post Emergent herbicide.

• Excellent combining ability with Early Post Emergent Broadleaf / Sedge controlling rice herbicides (i.e. Sunrise)

Dosage: 350 ML per Acre.
