Norflurazon

Type: Herbicide

Mode of Action: Inhibiting the carotenoid biosynthesis in plants

Common Product Names: Solicam

What is it?

Norflurazon is a selective herbicide used primarily to control a wide range of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. It is particularly effective in crops like soybeans, cotton, fruit trees, and non-crop areas. This herbicide can be used in both pre-emergent and post-emergent applications, making it versatile for different stages of weed growth.

How does it work?

Norflurazon disrupts the synthesis of carotenoids, which are essential pigments that protect chlorophyll from photooxidation. Without these pigments, the plant's chlorophyll breaks down when exposed to light, leading to impaired photosynthesis and eventually causing the plant to die.

Benefits

  • Pre-Emergent and Post-Emergent Use: Flexible application timing for various stages of weed growth.
  • Long-Lasting Residual Activity: Provides extended weed control, reducing the need for frequent reapplication.
  • Selective Action: Safe for use in various crops without harming the desired plants.
  • Reduced Chlorophyll Degradation: Prevents weed survival by inhibiting essential pigments for photosynthesis.
