Product details
Modesty Herbicide by AgroStar | 40
g
Modesty contains imazethapyr 35% + imazamox 35% WG for early
post-emergence weed control in soybean, groundnut, cluster bean and red gram. The complete crop programmes require MSO adjuvant
and application at the weeds’ 2–3-leaf stage. This listing is the 40 g pack.
What it targets: The crop-specific grassy and broadleaf weed species listed
below.
When to use it: One foliar spray at the weeds’ 2–3-leaf stage, not an assumed
number of days after sowing.
Essential companion: MSO adjuvant at the native label rate is required. Confirm the
correct product and actual pack contents rather than assuming it is included.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌿 Early weed management: Acts on susceptible
weeds at the specified early post-emergence stage.
-
🎯 Four crop programmes: Separate soybean,
groundnut, cluster-bean and red-gram directions retain their different water and harvest requirements.
-
💧 Water-dispersible granules: The WG
formulation disperses in water and requires proper mixing and agitation.
-
🧭 Transparent resistance grouping: Both
ingredients are HRAC Group 2. The combination is not two different modes of action.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Imazethapyr and imazamox both inhibit acetolactate synthase (ALS),
disrupting synthesis of branched-chain amino acids in susceptible weeds.
-
Stops growth processes: ALS inhibition interferes with essential growth in susceptible weeds.
-
Two actives, one group: Both ingredients belong to HRAC Group 2; a two-ingredient product does not automatically provide two
independent resistance modes.
-
Stage matters: Treat at the specified small-weed stage with complete foliage coverage and the required MSO. Do not compensate for
overgrown or resistant weeds by increasing the dose.
Use appropriate non-chemical weed management and inspect surviving
weeds. Obtain advice on effective, permitted alternatives from a different mode of action; switching to another Group 2 herbicide is
not a different-site rotation.

Dosage & Application Guide
These are complete crop-specific programmes for the clearly
identified listed weeds. Acre figures are approximate conversions using 1 acre = 0.40468564224 hectare, with original hectare values
retained. The required MSO and first timing apply to every row.

Mandatory MSO: Add MSO adjuvant at 2 ml per litre of water
for all four crops. This is an explicit label adjuvant rate, not a calculated Modesty-per-litre recipe. Confirm the appropriate MSO
and whether it is supplied; do not substitute another brand’s companion product without approval.
Weed-name clarification: The leaflet prints Digitaria
arvensis for groundnut and cluster bean, while other official information uses Digera arvensis. Do not assume these are two approved
weeds. Confirm the actual weed and supplied label before treating that disputed target.
Harvest and entry: PHI means the interval from the last
spray to harvest: soybean 56, groundnut 83, cluster bean 64 and red gram 125 days. Confirm worker re-entry separately; do not
interpret an ambiguous drying instruction as unrestricted immediate entry.
No tank or pack recipe: No derived product-per-litre, tank,
pump or exact pack-coverage instruction is given. The 40 g pack is not an exact one-acre quantity under the hectare
conversion.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Check crop and weeds: Use only soybean, groundnut, cluster bean or red gram with the listed targets. Resolve any uncertain weed
name before treatment.
-
Use one early spray: Apply once when weeds are at 2–3 leaves. This is a weed-stage rule, not the crop’s leaf stage or a guessed
sowing-day interval.
-
Prepare with agitation: Disperse the recommended quantity in one-quarter of the recommended water while agitating, then add the
remaining water with continued agitation. Include the required MSO as the supplied directions require.
-
Cover foliage evenly: Use a knapsack sprayer with a flat-fan nozzle for thorough weed-foliage coverage. Do not convert the foliar
programme into drenching, seed treatment or fertigation.
-
Choose suitable conditions: Prefer morning or evening. Avoid afternoon application, rain, wind, hot sunshine and temperatures above
30°C. Do not spray while bees are foraging or near water bodies, aquaculture or pisciculture.
-
Respect mixing and intervals: Do not mix with fungicides or insecticides. Observe the crop-specific PHI, confirm worker-entry
instructions and do not apply after harvest.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Modesty have two different modes of action?
No. Imazethapyr and imazamox both inhibit ALS and belong to HRAC Group 2. Plan resistance management accordingly.
No. Imazethapyr and imazamox both inhibit ALS and belong to HRAC Group 2. Plan resistance management accordingly.
2. Do all four crops use the same water and harvest interval?
No. Cluster bean uses 500 L water per hectare; the other three use 375–500 L. Harvest intervals differ by crop and must stay paired with the correct row.

3. Is MSO optional or already in the pack?
It is required at the native label rate shown above. Pack contents are not guaranteed here; confirm the correct MSO and its supply before treatment.

4. What does the uncertain Digitaria arvensis name mean?
That spelling is printed in the leaflet, while other official information uses Digera arvensis. Identify the actual weed and confirm the supplied label before treating this target; do not count the two spellings as two separate approved weeds.

5. Can I use it later, on another pulse crop or with any pesticide?
Do not extend the 2–3-weed-leaf window or add crops such as green gram or black gram. The programme is one spray, not a repeat schedule, and mixing with fungicides or insecticides is prohibited.

Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it: Read the supplied label and leaflet, verify the exact formulation, and follow
current national, state and local restrictions. Use only the listed crop and target combinations. Check harvest, worker-entry
and destination-market residue requirements separately; this description is not a substitute for the approved pack directions.
Agricultural use only; not for post-harvest application.
Wear protective clothing, long sleeves, trousers, boots, chemical-resistant gloves, eye or face
protection and the respiratory protection specified by the label and safety data sheet. Avoid breathing dust or spray mist and
avoid skin and eye contact. Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling. Wash exposed skin after use and wash contaminated
clothing separately.
If exposed or unwell, seek medical help promptly and show the container, label or safety data sheet.
Move an inhalation casualty to fresh air, wash contaminated skin and rinse exposed eyes with clean water. Do not induce
vomiting unless a medical professional directs it. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person.
Toxic to honeybees: do not spray during bee-foraging. Toxic to fish and aquatic organisms: do not spray
near water bodies, aquaculture or pisciculture. Prevent drift, runoff, spills and equipment washings entering drains or
waters. Avoid rainy, windy or hot sunny conditions and temperatures above 30°C.
Keep unprotected people out during application and while the spray is wet. The leaflet’s re-entry
wording requires clarification against the supplied pack; this page does not establish a precise entry interval. Follow the
crop-specific harvest interval independently.
Keep in the original tightly closed pack in a cool, dry, ventilated, secure place away from children,
animals, food, feed, seeds and fertilisers. Never reuse empty containers. Follow approved local disposal requirements; do not
burn or bury packs yourself. No guarantee of control, crop safety, yield or market acceptance is implied. The safety data
sheet specifies storage at 0–30°C.
