Maher Oxadiazon (25% EC)

Oxadiazon is a herbicide from the oxadiazole group that has contact, selective and systemic properties, and is used in rice fields to control the weeds after emergence, and in onion fields after planting and before weeds growing.
Mechanism of action: This herbicide acts by inhibiting the protoporphyrinogen oxidase enzyme, thus preventing the growth and development of weeds that have germinated and, due to the persistence during the season, lead to wilt and stop their growth. Oxadiazon is rapidly infiltrated into the weed and is absorbed and metabolized through the stems and leaves of the weed, and the remainder does not accumulate in the plant.
 
Indications :
Oxadiazon is an herbicide that is used to control broad leaf, narrow-leaved weeds, and sedges. This herbicide is produced and marketed in various formulations, which includes SL Oxadiazon (3.5/4  liter per hectare) for controlling after weeding of rice farms, including panicum grass, nut grass, Typha latifolia, common water-plantain, water-plantains, Mini bulrush, Common duckweed,  and pickerelweed. Oxadiazon  (25% EC) is applied 3 liters per hectare after planting and before sprouting the weeds in the onion fields, including bindweed, types of amaranth, panicum grass, and wild millet types.This herbicide is effective on monocotyledonous weeds and dicotyledonous rice. Also, this herbicide can be recommended for controlling broad leaf and thin annual leaf weeds after planting and before growth on products such as ornamental plants, fruit trees, citrus fruits, grapes, cotton, soybeans, and sunflowers. The best time to use the oxadiazon before emerging two leaves is about five to eight days after transplantation when two centimeters of water (from the farm floor) completely covers the farm surface so that the soil does not appear, the oxadiazon can be spread over the field.
