Introduction

KROLL (Krishi Rasayan Export) Oxyfluorfen 23.5% EC is a selective pre-emergence herbicide used to control a wide range of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in a variety of crops. It is a diphenyl ether herbicide that works by disrupting the electron transport chain in chloroplasts, which is essential for photosynthesis.

Mode of Action

Oxyfluorfen is absorbed by the roots or foliage of plants and translocated throughout the plant. Once inside the plant, it disrupts the electron transport chain in chloroplasts, which leads to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS are highly reactive molecules that can damage cellular components, including DNA and proteins. This damage eventually leads to the death of the plant.

Application Rates

The application rate of KROLL (Krishi Rasayan Export) Oxyfluorfen 23.5% EC will vary depending on the target weed, the crop, and the soil type. In general, the application rate will range from 0.25 to 0.5 pounds of product per acre.

Application Methods

KROLL (Krishi Rasayan Export) Oxyfluorfen 23.5% EC can be applied by pre-emergence, early post-emergence, and directed spray. Pre-emergence application is the most common application method. To apply by pre-emergence application, mix the appropriate amount of product with water and apply the mixture to the soil surface before the weeds emerge. Early post-emergence application can be used to control weeds that have already emerged. To apply by early post-emergence application, mix the appropriate amount of product with water and apply the mixture to the foliage of the weeds until they are thoroughly wet. Directed spray is a good option for controlling grasses in sensitive areas, such as around trees and shrubs. To apply by directed spray, mix the appropriate amount of product with water and apply the mixture directly to the target grasses.
