When to use it: Post-emergence, at the 3–5-leaf stage of weeds, usually 15–20 days after sowing or transplanting.
What to include: 500 ml/acre in 150–200 L water, applied with a knapsack sprayer and flat-fan or flood-jet nozzle.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌾Mixed-weed control: Controls the listed grasses, sedges and broadleaf weeds together in rice.
- ⏱️Early reduction in competition: Acts on emerged weeds, helping reduce their competition with rice for water and nutrients.
- 🌧️One-hour rainfastness: Rapid uptake helps maintain performance when rain occurs one hour after application.
- 🌱Protects crop establishment: Timely weed control supports rice tillering during the critical period of weed competition.
- 🧑🌾Less hand-weeding pressure: Reducing the weed burden can reduce reliance on hand weeding; results depend on field conditions.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Novixid combines Rinskor active (florpyrauxifen-benzyl) with penoxsulam. It is a systemic herbicide applied to emerged weeds.
- Uptake: The spray is absorbed by exposed weed foliage and moves within susceptible weeds.
- Growth disruption: Florpyrauxifen-benzyl mimics auxin, disrupting normal plant growth.
- Complementary action: Penoxsulam blocks ALS, an enzyme needed to make essential amino acids.
Rotate effective herbicide modes of action and combine chemical control with appropriate field management. Two active ingredients do not guarantee control of every resistant weed.

Dosage & Application Guide
Use the crop-specific programme below. PHI is the minimum interval between the last application and harvest.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Transplanted rice | 500 ml | 150–200 L | See note* | 83 days |
| Direct-seeded rice | 500 ml | 150–200 L | See note* | 83 days |
PHI reference: the harvest intervals shown are the Indian registration intervals for this formulation. Check that the supplied product label carries the same crop-specific interval before use.
Per-litre dose: this is an area-based treatment; no fixed per-litre rate is provided. Measure the product for the area and use the stated water volume.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Weed stage: Spray at 3–5 weed leaves, usually 15–20 days after sowing or transplanting. Expose target weed foliage above the water.
- Equipment: Use a knapsack sprayer with a flat-fan or flood-jet nozzle. Minimise overlap and keep drift away from neighbouring broadleaf crops.
- Water management: Flood the field within 1–2 days after treatment.
- Crop nutrition: Apply nitrogenous fertiliser within 7–10 days after treatment, following the crop nutrition plan.
- Swarna variety: Temporary leaf rolling may occur in Swarna rice; the manufacturer reports recovery within 4–21 days.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can it be used in both direct-seeded and transplanted rice?Yes. Use the target weed list and harvest interval for the appropriate rice establishment system.

How much product and water are needed per acre?Use 500 ml in 150–200 L water per acre. This is not a fixed tank concentration.
When should the field be flooded again?Flood within 1–2 days after application, after spraying the exposed weed foliage.
How soon can rice be harvested?The Indian formulation registration lists 83 days for both rice systems. Check the matching harvest interval on the supplied Novixid label before use.
