OXYKILL

Description

Product Overview

Oxykill is a selective, contact herbicide that controls annual broad-leaf weeds, some grasses, and suppresses certain perennials. It provides both pre-emergence and post-emergence activity, making it versatile for weed management.

Technical Details

• Active Ingredient: Oxyfluorfen 23.5% EC
• Mode of Action: Oxykill inhibits the enzyme Protoporphyrinogen oxidase, leading to the accumulation of phototoxic heme and chlorophyll precursors. In the presence of light, these compounds produce reactive oxygen species that disrupt cell membranes, effectively killing weeds.

Features & Benefits

• Dual Action: Works as a pre-emergence herbicide by forming a chemical barrier on the soil and affecting weeds upon emergence. It also has post-emergence activity, targeting actively growing plants.
• Active Ingredient: Contains oxyfluorfen, a member of the diphenyl ether group.
• Sunlight-Dependent: Oxykill’s performance is enhanced by the presence of sunlight, making it effective in outdoor crop applications.

Usage Recommendations

• Crops: Suitable for Onion, Tea, Potato, Groundnut, Direct Seeded Rice, and Mint.
• Dosage: Mix 450-850 ml of Oxykill in 500 liters of water for application.

Disclaimer: Always follow the product label for specific application instructions and safety guidelines.
