Mahamix - Metsulfuron Methyl 10% + Chlorimuron Ethyl 10% WP - Mahindra Summit
Mahamix Herbicide by Mahindra Summit
Mahamix contains Metsulfuron-methyl 10% + chlorimuron-ethyl 10% WP. Mahamix combines two sulfonylurea herbicides that interrupt essential amino-acid production and growth in susceptible weeds.
Composition: Metsulfuron-methyl 10% + chlorimuron-ethyl 10% WP.
Verified scope: The manufacturer’s crop-and-target pairings are listed below.
Before use: Confirm the product rate, water volume, method and waiting period on the supplied label.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌾Defined crop scope: Mahindra lists Transplanted rice.
- 🎯Matched targets: Each listed target is tied to its own crop, rather than a general all-crop claim.
- 🌿Rice weed focus: The manufacturer lists sedges and broadleaf weeds in transplanted rice.
- 🧪Named timing: The recommendation row specifies pre-emergence use at three days after transplanting.
- 🔄Resistance-aware planning: Match the mode of action to the crop programme; changing brand alone is not a rotation.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Mahamix combines two sulfonylurea herbicides that interrupt essential amino-acid production and growth in susceptible weeds.
- Uptake: The active ingredients act in susceptible weeds after uptake.
- Amino-acid inhibition: Disruption of essential amino-acid production limits normal cell activity.
- Growth inhibition: Shoot and root growth is impaired in susceptible weeds.
Changing brand names does not necessarily change the mode of action. Follow a crop-specific resistance-management plan and all limits on repeat applications.
Target Crops & Weeds
Mahindra’s Mahamix recommendation table names the following crop-and-target pairings.
| Crop | Target Weed(s) |
|---|---|
| Transplanted rice |
|
Each target belongs only to its listed crop. Do not extend these recommendations to unlisted crops or assume that every listed target applies to every crop.
Dosage & Application Guide
Check the current pack before measuring product. The public manufacturer table uses a combined g/ml dose header without identifying the product unit. Quantitative directions are withheld until that ambiguity is resolved.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Product rate | Water volume | Method | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Transplanted rice | Confirm label unit | Confirm label basis | Pre-emergence; 3 DAT | Not verified |
The manufacturer lists 20 per hectare under a combined g/ml heading and 300 L water without an explicit area basis. Neither quantity is turned into a working recipe. DAT means days after transplanting.
PHI means the interval between the last application and harvest. An unverified waiting period does not mean zero days.
The specific recommendation row states pre-emergence at 3 DAT. General website claims about other timings or broadcasting are not a substitute for a crop-specific current label. No tank mix is recommended.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match the target: Check the full Mahamix identity, crop and target against the supplied label.
- Measure correctly: Use the label’s explicit product unit and water volume; do not substitute a hectare quantity for an acre quantity.
- Follow the approved method: Use only the preparation, equipment and application route specified on the pack. Do not assume a tank mixture is permitted.
- Protect people and water: Wear the specified protective equipment and prevent drift or runoff into water and neighbouring crops.
