Dharrier (Dharmaj Crop Guard) Sulfosulfuron 75% WG is a selective post-emergence herbicide used to control a broad spectrum of broadleaf weeds in sugarcane and maize (corn) crops. It is a sulfonylurea herbicide that inhibits photosynthesis, disrupting the plant's ability to produce energy and ultimately killing the weed.
Active Ingredient
The active ingredient in Dharrier is sulfosulfuron, a sulfonylurea herbicide that belongs to the ALS inhibitor class of herbicides. Sulfosulfuron works by inhibiting the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS), which is essential for the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). Without BCAAs, protein synthesis is disrupted and the plant dies.
Application Methods
Dharrier is applied to sugarcane and maize (corn) crops as a post-emergence herbicide. The herbicide is applied to the weeds when they are small and actively growing. Dharrier is applied as a foliar spray using a ground sprayer. The application rate is 20-30 g/ha.
