Flumetsulam
Type: Herbicide
Mode of Action: Inhibiting the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS)
Common Product Names: Hornet & Python
What is it?
Flumetsulam is a selective, systemic herbicide primarily used to control broadleaf weeds. It is absorbed by the roots and shoots of plants and is translocated throughout the plant's system, concentrating in the growing points. As a post-emergent herbicide, Flumetsulam is applied after the emergence of both crops and weeds, targeting actively growing broadleaf weeds. The herbicide is highly effective against a wide variety of weeds, including lambsquarters, pigweed, and velvetleaf.
How does it work?
Flumetsulam works by inhibiting the ALS enzyme, crucial for amino acid production in plants. When this enzyme is blocked, the production of essential amino acids is halted, leading to the plant's inability to synthesize proteins necessary for growth. As a result, the weeds experience stunted growth and eventually die. Flumetsulam's mode of action is highly selective, meaning it targets specific weeds without harming the crops it is designed to protect.
