Product Overview

Capture (Canary Agro Chemicals) 2 4 D Amine Salt 58% is a selective herbicide that effectively controls a wide range of broadleaf weeds in various crops, including wheat, maize, sorghum, sugarcane, and fallow land. It contains the active ingredient 2,4-D amine salt (58%), a synthetic auxin that mimics the plant hormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA).

Key Features

• Selective herbicide
• Broad-spectrum control of broadleaf weeds
• Systemic action
• Translaminar movement
• Rainfast

Mode of Action

Capture acts as a systemic herbicide. 2,4-D amine salt is absorbed by the plant through its roots and foliage. Once inside the plant, it mimics the action of IAA, disrupting the plant's growth and hormonal balance. This disruption leads to uncontrolled cell division, abnormal growth, and eventually, death of the weed.

Application Rates

The recommended application rate of Capture varies depending on the specific target weed, crop, and environmental conditions. It is essential to consult the product label for precise application rates tailored to each scenario.

Application Methods

Capture can be applied using various methods, including foliar spray, chemigation, and spot treatment. The choice of application method depends on the target weed, crop, and grower's preference. Refer to the product label for specific application instructions for each method.

Restrictions

As with any herbicide, there are certain restrictions to consider when using Capture:

• Avoid applying Capture to crops under stress from drought, heat, or other environmental conditions.
• Maintain a minimum interval of 7-10 days between Capture application and other pesticide applications.
• Do not apply Capture to crops that are flowering or intended for human or animal consumption within the specified pre-harvest interval (PHI).
• Avoid using Capture in areas with sandy soils or high groundwater levels, as it may leach into water sources.

Storage and Disposal

Proper storage and disposal of Capture are crucial to ensure its effectiveness and safety:

• Store Capture in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture.
• Dispose of unused Capture and empty containers according to local regulations, avoiding contamination of water sources or the environment.

Safety Precautions

When handling and applying Capture, it is essential to prioritize safety:

• Wear personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, goggles, and a respirator, to minimize exposure to the product.
• Avoid direct contact of Capture with skin, eyes, or clothing.
