GENERAL INFORMATION
BENZ combines the two active ingredients: imazamox, belonging to herbicide mode of action Group 2, and bentazon belonging to the herbicide mode of action Group 6. Imazamox is a selective herbicide that when applied as an early post-emergence treatment may be absorbed through both the roots and foliage. Susceptible weeds stop growing and eventually die.
Bentazon provides selective post-emergence control of many broadleaf weeds. Bentazon does not control grasses. Bentazon is a herbicide with mainly contact action. Uptake into the plant occurs primarily through the leaves. Thorough coverage of foliage is important for consistent weed control. Failure to penetrate crop or weed leaf canopies with the spray will result in incomplete control of small weeds growing underneath.
Cool weather conditions or drought will delay herbicidal activity and if prolonged, may result in poor weed control. Use of BENZ in hot, humid weather may result in temporary leaf yellowing, leaf flecking, bronzing or burning. The crop usually outgrows this condition within 10 days (see Restrictions and Limitations).
