Product details
Sakura Herbicide | Quizalofop Ethyl 10% EC
A post-emergence grass-weed herbicide for soybean. Match the weed stage, treated area and water volume before application.
What it controls: The listed grass weeds in soybean, not a general treatment for every weed.
When to use it: After weeds emerge, within the manufacturer’s stated weed-stage window.
What to include: The soybean rate, 150–200 L water/acre, even weed coverage and the supplied pack restrictions.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌱Treats emerged grass weeds: Post-emergence use means the weeds are already above the soil. Identify them before choosing this product.
- 🎯A focused soybean option: The supported use below is soybean. A general reference to broadleaf-crop selectivity is not an approval for every broadleaf crop.
- 🍃Moves within treated weeds: The active ingredient enters through leaves and moves inside the weed, rather than relying only on damage at the sprayed spot.
- ⚙️A clear mode of action: It blocks an enzyme grasses need to make essential fatty materials. This interrupts new weed growth.
- 📏Area and water kept together: The dose and dilution are presented on the manufacturer’s acre basis, helping avoid confusion between one tank and one acre.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Sakura is selective, meaning its supported use targets grass weeds in a specified crop rather than indiscriminately treating all plants. It is not a broadleaf-weed or sedge-control recommendation.
- Leaves take up the treatment: Apply the supported foliar treatment to the emerged target weeds. Soil application is not substituted for this leaf-applied programme.
- The active moves inside the weed: Systemic movement carries the active ingredient toward growing parts, including below-ground growth.
- New growth is disrupted: Quizalofop ethyl blocks ACCase, an enzyme needed for fatty-acid production. The susceptible grass can no longer sustain normal growth.
Do not judge resistance management by brand name alone. Sakura and another quizalofop product share Group 1 activity. Use field monitoring and suitable label-approved alternatives instead of repeatedly relying on the same group.
Target Crops & Pests
The manufacturer identifies the following soybean grass weeds. Local names can overlap; identify the actual weed rather than relying only on a regional name.
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Soybean | Grass weeds
|
No use on wheat, rice or another grass crop is recommended here. Do not treat the listed crop selectivity as permission to allow drift onto neighbouring crops.
Dosage & Application Guide
Manufacturer programme for foliar treatment of emerged weeds in soybean. These are published acre rates, not hectare conversions.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soybean | 150–180 ml | 150–200 L | See note* | See note* |
The manufacturer gives a timing window from the 2–3-leaf stage to the flowering stage of weeds. This is a weed-stage description, not a crop flowering instruction or a fixed number of days after sowing.
*The exact current Indian pack leaflet was not available for review. The manufacturer’s page supplies the rate, water and weed-stage information, but does not establish a pre-harvest interval or an independent per-litre dose. Obtain the applicable harvest and other restrictions from the supplied pack before use.
No pump recipe, repeat interval or numerical re-entry period is supplied. Do not calculate a tank dose without measuring how much area that tank covers.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Identify the field use: Check that the crop is soybean and that the weed matches the supported grass targets. A mixed stand of grasses and broadleaf weeds may need a different management decision.
- Measure and calibrate: Measure the area to be treated and calibrate the sprayer for the stated water volume. Use the actual product quantity, not the weight of active ingredient or the pack size as an acreage estimate.
- Cover the weed leaves: Use the leaf-applied, post-emergence programme. Keep spray on the intended treatment area and avoid drift to neighbouring crops or water.
- Follow the mixing directions: Use the mixing order and equipment directions on the supplied pack. No blanket tank-mix, adjuvant or surfactant addition is recommended here.
- Check conditions and record use: Follow the pack’s weather and rain restrictions rather than assuming all treatments are rainproof. Record the date and treated area, and observe the applicable harvest and re-entry rules.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Sakura for grasses or broadleaf weeds?This description supports the listed grass weeds in soybean. It does not give a broadleaf-weed or sedge-control programme.
2. Is Sakura the same concentration as Targa Super?No. This Sakura entry is quizalofop ethyl 10% EC. Targa Super is a separate 5% EC product. Do not copy its product-volume rate or assume the same pack covers the same area.
3. What rate and water volume are shown for soybean?The manufacturer lists 150–180 ml product with 150–200 L water per acre. Keep the area, water and target weed stage together; this is not a universal per-pump recipe.
4. Does post-emergence mean after sowing or after weeds emerge?It means after weeds emerge. The manufacturer states the 2–3-leaf to flowering-stage window for the weeds. It does not set a fixed day after sowing for every field.
5. How long must I wait before harvest?A numerical harvest interval was not established from the reviewed manufacturer page. Check the current supplied leaflet for the applicable restriction before treating the crop; an unstated interval is not zero.
