How It Works: Mode of Action
Rukawat is a selective systemic grass herbicide. It interferes with fat production needed for normal weed growth.
-
Leaf uptake: The product enters susceptible weeds through their leaves.
-
Movement within weeds: It moves within the weed and inhibits the ACCase enzyme involved in making essential plant fats.
-
Growth is disrupted: Susceptible grasses stop developing normally and are controlled under the label programme.
This is not a general recommendation for broad-leaf weeds or sedges. Do not assume that a different brand within HRAC Group 1 is a different-mode rotation.
Target Crops & Weeds
The manufacturer lists these crop-specific grass weeds. Exact names are included to help distinguish similar-looking grasses.
| Crop |
Target Weed(s) |
|---|---|
| Soybean |

| Cotton |

| Groundnut |

| Black gram |
|
| Onion |

These are grass-weed listings, not a general recommendation for broad-leaf weeds or sedges. A crop mentioned in another quizalofop brand’s directions is not automatically covered by Rukawat.
Dosage & Application Guide
Numerical application programmes are withheld because manufacturer quantities and separate formulation references do not establish complete current Rukawat directions with matching method, carrier, crop and weed stage, harvest and access conditions.
The manufacturer lists the five crop-specific uses above. Its quantities must not be combined with separate generic water or harvest references to create a current Rukawat programme.
The historical soybean formulation reference has an unresolved product-rate unit; no litre conversion is inferred. Explicit-unit references for other crops also do not establish their complete current branded programmes. Confirm the supplied pack directions before treatment.
Do not combine manufacturer quantities with national water or harvest values to invent a programme. Confirm the current label’s dose, method, crop/weed stage, repeats, entry interval, rainfast period and permitted mixtures. No per-litre or tank dose is derived.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Identify the grasses: Match both the crop and weed listing; do not assume all weeds are controlled.
-
Check the exact product: Confirm Rukawat quizalofop-ethyl 5% EC, not Rukawat X 10% EC or a mixture.
-
Follow the current label: Confirm the dose, water, crop/weed stage, equipment, method and mixing directions before application. Use only specifically permitted mixtures.
-
Plan follow-up and harvest: Prevent drift, respect entry and harvest intervals, and monitor surviving weeds under an appropriate weed-management plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Rukawat contain?
Quizalofop-ethyl 5% EC, an emulsifiable-concentrate herbicide.

Soybean, cotton, groundnut, black gram and onion, with their named grass weeds. Confirm current pack approval.
Does it control all weed types?
No. This description covers specified grasses, not a general broad-leaf weed or sedge programme.
Can separate soybean references be combined into an application programme?
Not to create an application programme. They come from separate references; confirm the complete current Rukawat label before treatment.
