Product details
Rekishi Herbicide by IFFCO-MC
Sulfosulfuron 75% WG for post-emergence weed management in wheat. The brand rate includes a separately measured surfactant; the exact mixing instructions need label confirmation.
Active ingredient: Sulfosulfuron 75% WG.
Crop fit: Wheat.
Before applying: Match the crop, target, rate, method and harvest interval on the current pack.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌾Wheat programme: A crop-specific option rather than an all-crop herbicide.
- 🎯Grass and broadleaf targets: IFFCO names Phalaris minor, wild oat and several broadleaf groups.
- 📅Defined timing: The brand specifies 30–35 days after wheat sowing when weeds have 2–4 leaves.
- 📏Separate quantities: Product grams and surfactant millilitres are not confused.
- ⚠️Intercrop safeguard: The brand warning against use with broadleaf intercrops is retained.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Sulfosulfuron is a systemic ALS-inhibiting herbicide. It disrupts amino-acid synthesis in susceptible weeds and limits further growth.
- Treat emerged weeds: Use the verified wheat post-emergence window.
- Move within weeds: Systemic uptake carries the active to growing tissues.
- Inhibit ALS: Interruption of amino-acid synthesis limits normal weed development.
Use this product within a resistance-management programme. Switching brand names does not necessarily change the mode of action.
Target Crops & Weeds
The following crop and target pairings are listed by IFFCO. Keep each programme with its own crop.

The source prints “Lathrus” without a clear species identification. That additional target is held for label clarification rather than silently substituted with a guessed species.
Dosage & Application Guide
The following are IFFCO’s crop-specific product rates. Follow the current pack if its directions differ.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wheat | 13.5 | Confirm | Not given | Confirm |
The product rate is 13.5 g/acre plus 500 ml surfactant/acre. The exact surfactant identity, total spray water and preparation sequence must be confirmed before use.
The source’s mixing paragraph incorrectly refers to another 500 g of Rekishi, conflicting with its clear 500 ml surfactant rate. That paragraph is not reproduced or used to calculate a tank dose. PHI is not supplied.
Confirm crop-stage timing, equipment, mixing sequence, repeat interval, maximum applications, rainfast time and re-entry directions on the supplied pack. Do not increase the rate or improvise a tank mix.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Check the field: Never use where mustard, sunflower, pea or another broadleaf crop is intercropped with wheat.
- Match both stages: IFFCO specifies 30–35 days after sowing wheat and a 2–4-leaf weed stage; confirm the current label.
- Confirm the surfactant and mix: The rate is 13.5 g Rekishi plus 500 ml surfactant per acre. Obtain the exact surfactant identity and corrected preparation instructions before mixing.
- Apply with the right equipment: IFFCO specifies flat-fan or flood-jet nozzles. Confirm water volume, harvest interval and following-crop restrictions on the pack.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Rekishi contain?Sulfosulfuron 75% WG.
What is the brand rate?13.5 g Rekishi plus 500 ml surfactant per acre. The surfactant is not 500 g of additional herbicide.
When is the listed wheat timing?30–35 days after sowing, when weeds are at the 2–4-leaf stage. Both conditions need the current label check.
Can it be used in wheat mixed with mustard or peas?No. IFFCO expressly warns against use when mustard, sunflower, pea or another broadleaf crop is intercropped with wheat.
Why is no tank recipe given?The retail preparation paragraph conflicts with its own rate table. Water volume and stock-solution instructions are withheld until the current pack resolves them.
