Galaxy Herbicide
General Information:
Galaxy is a selective post-emergence herbicide for the control of broadleaf weeds in Soybean. It contains the active ingredient Fluthiacet-methyl. Galaxy is a contact herbicide that kills the weeds by disrupting their cell membranes.
Active Ingredient:
- Fluthiacet-methyl 10.3% EC
Mode of Action:
Galaxy is a contact herbicide, which means that it kills the weeds by disrupting their cell membranes. It is absorbed by the leaves and stems of the weeds and quickly kills them.
Application:
Galaxy should be applied post-emergence to the weeds, when they are 2-4 leaf stage. It can be applied using a knapsack sprayer or a boom sprayer.
Precautions:
- Galaxy is a selective herbicide, but it can injure some crops if applied incorrectly. It is important to read and follow the label directions carefully.
- Galaxy is not rain fast. Therefore, it should not be applied if rain is expected within 4 hours of application.
- Galaxy is toxic to fish and other aquatic organisms. Therefore, it should not be applied near water bodies.
Additional Information:
Galaxy is a popular herbicide among soybean farmers in India because it is effective against a wide range of broadleaf weeds, including some difficult-to-control weeds such as Amaranthus and Ipomoea. It is also relatively safe for soybean plants and has a short residual activity in the soil, which allows for crop rotation.
