About Product
- SYNDAX POWER is a pre-emergence herbicide for the control of a broad spectrum of weeds in rice cultivation, including direct-sown rice, rice nursery, and transplanted rice.
- It effectively controls major grasses, sedges, and broadleaf weeds of rice.
Mode of Entry
- Systemic
Mode of Action
- It works by combining two active ingredients, Bensulfuron-methyl and Pretilachlor, which target different biochemical pathways in weeds. Bensulfuron-methyl inhibits the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS), disrupting the synthesis of essential amino acids and leading to the death of susceptible weeds. Meanwhile, Pretilachlor inhibits the biosynthesis of very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs), causing cell membrane damage and ultimately cell death.
Key Features & Benefits
- Syndax Power Herbicide effectively controls a wide range of weeds, including grasses, sedges, and broadleaf weeds.
- It can be applied both before and after the weeds emerge, providing flexibility in weed management.
- As a systemic herbicide, it is absorbed and translocated throughout the weed, ensuring long-lasting control.
- It becomes rainfast within 1-2 hours of application, maintaining its effectiveness even if it rains shortly after application.
- When used according to the product label, it is safe for rice crops.
