Pyroguard
Pyroguard (Pyroxasulfone 85% WG)
Pyroguard is a selective, pre-emergence herbicide in the form of a water-dispersible granule (WG) containing 85% active ingredient. As a member of the sulfonanilide herbicide class, it is designed to control a wide range of grassy and broadleaf weeds in crops like soybeans, corn, and wheat.
Mode Of Action
Pyroxasulfone 85% WG inhibits the biosynthesis of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) by blocking the enzyme acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase). This disrupts cell membrane and wall formation in germinating weeds, preventing root and shoot growth, and effectively controlling a wide range of grasses and broadleaf weeds pre-emergence.
Key Features and Benefits :
• Comprehensive solution for controlling Phalaris minor from the early crop stages
• Provides long-lasting control of Phalaris minor
• Reduces crop and weed competition, leading to increased yield
• Reduces the need for multiple herbicide applications due to its prolonged residual activity
