Nagarjuna Dicaught (NACL Industries Limited) Pyrithiobac Sodium 10% EC is a post-emergence selective herbicide for broad-leaved weed control in cotton crops. It is a systemic herbicide that is absorbed by the leaves and roots of weeds and translocated to the growing points. Pyrithiobac sodium inhibits the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS), which is involved in the synthesis of amino acids. This disrupts the weed's growth and eventually kills it.

Nagarjuna Dicaught is safe to use on cotton plants at all stages of growth. It is also rainfast once dry, so it can be used even if rain is expected soon after application.

Recommended dosage:

The recommended dosage of Nagarjuna Dicaught is 400-500 ml per acre. It should be applied with a knapsack sprayer or a tractor-mounted sprayer.
