Agil - Propaquizafop 10% EC - ADAMA

Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits

• 🌿  Selective grass-weed control: Provides an option for susceptible annual and perennial grasses in the permitted broadleaf crops.
  
• 🍃  Systemic movement to growing points: After leaf uptake, the ingredient moves toward growing tissues in the weed’s leaves and roots.
  
• 🌱  A defined early weed-stage window: Positions treatment while grasses are actively growing at the 2–4-leaf stage, with the crop’s day window checked at the same time.
  

Technical Specifications

How It Works: Mode of Action

1. Absorption through weed leaves: The ingredient is absorbed by treated leaves of susceptible grass weeds.
   
2. Movement to growing tissues: It moves from the foliage to growing points in the leaves and roots.
   
3. Fatty-acid production is interrupted: Propaquizafop inhibits ACCase, an enzyme needed for fatty-acid synthesis, disrupting normal growth in susceptible grasses.
   

Systemic movement does not make every crop safe to treat. Account for HRAC Group 1 in previous and later treatments; changing to another Group 1 brand is not a new mode of action. Visible effects vary, and no fixed speed or resistance-proof result is promised.

Target Crops & Grass Weeds

Match the crop and exact weed to the current Agil pack. The black gram numerical row below covers its four named grasses only; confirm a separate complete programme before treating Echinochloa crus-galli in black gram. Do not extend use to grass crops or assume activity against broadleaf weeds and sedges.

Dosage & Application Guide

Soybean, Black Gram & Onion: Paired Foliar Programmes

Each row is one complete crop-and-weed programme, not interchangeable product and water choices. Acre figures are approximate conversions of the hectare quantities shown. For permitted Agil uses, use a single application and allow at least 24 hours before re-entry. PHI is the minimum interval from the final application to harvest, not a repeat or re-entry interval. Confirm the current pack agrees before use; do not derive a per-litre or tank recipe from this table.

Other crops: water & harvest safeguards: For jute, cotton, groundnut, tomato, cluster bean, chickpea, chilli and sesamum, retain the crop-specific water volume of 500 L/ha (approximately 202.34 L/acre). Minimum intervals from the final application to harvest are: jute, 87 days; cotton, 115 days; groundnut, 97 days; tomato, 31 days; cluster bean, 63 days; chickpea, 39 days; chilli, 31 days; sesamum, 59 days. These are water and harvest safeguards, not a product quantity or a complete application programme. Obtain the complete current crop-and-weed directions, including the product amount, before treatment.

How to Apply: Best Practices

• Meet both the crop and weed windows: For soybean and black gram, use 15–20 days after sowing; for onion, 15 days after transplanting. In each case the target grasses must also be actively growing at the 2–4-leaf stage. Neither condition replaces the other.
  
• Keep other crop timings separate: Subject to the complete current crop directions and the same 2–4-leaf actively growing weed stage: tomato and chilli, 20 days after transplanting; jute, cluster bean, chickpea and sesamum, 20 days after sowing; groundnut, 22 days after sowing; cotton, 25 days after sowing. These timing facts alone are not a complete dosing programme.
  
• Shake, measure and agitate: Shake the bottle before use. Measure the required product and mix it well with a small quantity of water, then add the remaining specified water with thorough agitation. Calibrate the equipment for the treated area.
  
• Use the foliar equipment specified: Use suitable high-volume or knapsack spraying equipment with a flat-fan or flood-jet nozzle, as permitted on the current pack. Follow its equipment and coverage instructions rather than changing to soil or seed treatment.
  
• Choose safe weather and protect water: Prefer morning or evening. Do not spray during rain, windy conditions or hot sunny periods. Work in the wind direction without allowing drift onto people or non-target plants. The product is toxic to fish; do not use around aquaculture.
  
• Keep the rain and mixture limits clear: Rainfall one hour after application is not expected to affect product activity, but this is not permission to spray in rain or disregard the weather restrictions. Use a mixture only when both current labels permit the proposed combination for the crop and use. Physical compatibility alone is not permission.
