APPLICATIONS

Biochemistry Microtubule assembly inhibition.  Mode ofaction Selective soil-herbicide, which acts by entering theseedling in the hypocotyl region. Also inhibits rootdevelopment.  Uses Pre-emergence control of many annualgrasses and broad-leaved weeds in brassicas, beans, peas, carrots,parsnips, lettuce, capsicums, tomatoes, artichokes, onions, garlic,vines, strawberries, raspberries, citrus fruit, oilseed rape,peanuts, soya beans, sunflowers, safflowers, ornamentals, cotton,sugar beet, sugar cane, and in forestry.
