- ⏱️ High-Potency Low Dose: Requires only 8 grams per acre, reducing chemical load and making it easy to carry and mix.
- ?️ Systemic Root Kill: The chemical moves through the plant to kill the roots and tubers (especially in Motha), preventing regrowth.
- ⏳ Long-Lasting Control: Provides residual action that keeps fields weed-free for weeks after application.
- ?️ Rainfast Efficiency: Becomes rainfast within 4 hours when mixed with a good surfactant (like Shigoto/Silwet).
- ? Crop Safe & Selective: Highly selective to target crops (Wheat, Rice) due to metabolic breakdown, ensuring your yield is protected.
Product scienceTechnical Specifications
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Brand Name | Makoto (IFFCO-MC) |
| Technical Name | Metsulfuron Methyl 20% WP |
| IRAC MoA Code | Group 2 (ALS Inhibitor) |
| Chemical Group | Sulfonylurea |
| Formulation | Wettable Powder (WP) |

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Makoto works by targeting a specific enzyme (ALS) that weeds need to grow, effectively starving them of essential proteins.
- Absorption: The herbicide is absorbed through leaves and roots within 4 hours.
- Translocation: It travels through the plant's system to the growing tips and roots.
- Elimination: Cell division stops immediately. The weed turns yellow (chlorosis) and dies completely within 1-3 weeks.
Note: Sensitive crops like Wheat and Rice contain enzymes that break down the chemical, keeping them safe.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Application Time | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wheat | 8 grams | 150 - 200 L | 25-35 Days After Sowing | 80 (Approx) |
| Rice | 8 grams | 150 - 200 L | 5-10 Days After Transplanting | 60 (Approx) |
| Sugarcane | 8 grams | 200 - 240 L | 10-40 Days After Planting | As per Label |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply when weeds are young (2-4 leaf stage) for Wheat. For Rice, apply early (5-10 days after transplanting).
- Mixing: Always pre-mix the 8g powder in a mug of water before adding it to the main tank. Add a surfactant (like Silwet/Shigoto) at 2ml/Litre for best results on waxy weeds.
- Coverage: Use a Flat Fan or Flood Jet nozzle. Do NOT use a hollow cone nozzle. Ensure 200 Litres of water per acre for thorough coverage.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Avoid spray drift to nearby sensitive crops like mustard or vegetables.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Makoto kill grasses like Phalaris (Gulli Danda)?
No. Makoto is specific to broadleaf weeds and sedges. For grass control in Wheat, it is often tank-mixed with Sulfosulfuron (Safal).
2. Can I apply Makoto by mixing it with sand?
Yes, for Rice only. You can mix 8g of Makoto with sand or urea and broadcast it into standing water (keep water for 2-3 days).
3. What happens if it rains after spraying?
If you use a surfactant, it becomes rainfast in 4 hours. Without a surfactant, rain immediately after spraying may reduce efficacy.
4. Is it safe for the next crop?
In alkaline soils (high pH), the chemical can persist. Avoid planting sensitive crops like Sunflower, Mustard, or Pulses immediately after harvest if soil pH is high.
5. What is the shelf life?
When stored in original packaging in a cool, dry place, it is stable for 2 years from the date of manufacture.
