Features

Active Ingredient: Contains 750g/kg Metribuzin.

Mode of Action: Absorbed predominantly by the roots, but also by the leaves, with translocation acropetally in the xylem. It inhibits photosynthesis in susceptible plants, leading to their death.

Target Weeds: Effective against a wide range of grass and broad-leaved weeds.

Formulation: Water-dispersible granules (WG) for easy mixing and application.

Active Ingredient

Metribuzin: 750g/kg

Mode of Action

Absorption: Predominantly by the roots, but also by the leaves.

Translocation: Acropetally in the xylem.

Target Undesirable Plants

Grasses: Various species.

Broad-leaved Undesirable Plants: Various species.

Recommended Usage

Rate of Use: 30-60g per 20 liters of water (750g/ha).

Packaging

Size: 500g per package.

Application

Crops: Well tolerated by baby corn, maize, sugarcane, and other crops.

Composition and Formulation

Formulation: Water-dispersible granules (WG)

Active Ingredient: Metribuzin 75%

Mechanism of Action

Metribuzin, the active ingredient in Moto Plus 75WG, inhibits photosynthesis in target undesirable plants by disrupting the electron transport chain in the chloroplasts. This results in the death of susceptible plants, particularly those that have emerged and are actively growing.

Application Timing

Pre-emergence: Apply before undesirable plant seeds germinate to control seedlings as they emerge.

Post-emergence: Apply after undesirable plants have emerged but before they reach a height of 10cm.

Efficacy

Moto Plus 75WG is highly effective against a broad spectrum of grass and broad-leaved undesirable plants, including but not limited to:

Grasses: Barnyardgrass, Crabgrass, Foxtail, Goosegrass

Broad-leaved Undesirable Plants: Pigweed, Lambsquarters, Mustard, Nightshade

Soil and Environmental Considerations

Soil Type: Works effectively in a variety of soil types, but the recommended dosage may vary based on soil organic matter content.

Rainfastness: Becomes rainfast within a few hours after application, minimizing the risk of wash-off.

Environmental Impact: Metribuzin is moderately persistent in soil and may have residual activity. It is important to follow label instructions and avoid runoff to non-target areas to minimize environmental impact.

Safety and Handling

Protective Equipment: Use appropriate protective gear, including gloves, goggles, and long-sleeved clothing, when handling and applying the product.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children and pets.

Disposal: Dispose of empty containers and unused product according to local regulations.

Compatibility

Moto Plus 75WG can be tank-mixed with other herbicides and pesticides to enhance control and broaden the spectrum of activity. However, it is recommended to perform a compatibility test before mixing with other products.

Additional Notes

Reentry Interval (REI): Wait until the spray has dried before allowing reentry into treated areas.

Harvest Interval: Follow the pre-harvest interval specified on the product label for the treated crop.
