Shapat - Sodium Acifluorfen 16.5% + Clodinafop-Propargyl 8% EC - Parijat

Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits

• 🌿  Mixed grass and broadleaf scope: The soybean target list includes grasses and broadleaf weeds, rather than only one weed group.
  
• 🧩  Two different herbicide mechanisms: Acifluorfen and clodinafop-propargyl affect different biochemical processes in susceptible weeds.
  
• 🌱  Defined post-emergence window: Crop age and weed leaf stage are considered together, instead of treating any emerged weed as suitable.
  
• 🚿  No spreader or booster required: The product directions do not require either addition; an extra additive is not automatically beneficial or permitted.
  

Technical Specifications

How It Works: Mode of Action

1. Acifluorfen affects the PPO pathway: Group 14 activity disrupts a plant pigment-production pathway, leading to damage to susceptible weed-cell membranes.
   
2. Clodinafop interrupts fatty-acid production: Group 1 activity inhibits ACCase, an enzyme needed for the fatty acids that support grass-weed growth and new cell structures.
   
3. Membrane injury and growth disruption combine: The two actions contribute to decline of susceptible weeds, explaining the mixed grass-and-broadleaf purpose.
   

Two mechanisms do not guarantee control of resistant or unlisted weeds, an exact kill time or freedom from crop injury. Consider both HRAC groups and the one-use-per-crop restriction when planning weed management.

Target Crops & Weeds

Identify the weeds in the soybean field before treatment. Genus-level entries do not establish control of every species, and this soybean list is not permission to spray another crop or neighbouring vegetation.

Dosage & Application Guide

Soybean at 15–25 Days & Weeds at 2–4 Leaves

Apply as a post-emergence foliar spray 15–25 days after sowing, when weeds are at the 2–4-leaf stage, within the complete soybean pack directions. Both conditions matter. Use only once in a crop, with sufficient soil moisture and a knapsack sprayer fitted with a flat-fan or flood-jet nozzle.

Before measuring, confirm the product amount, treated area, water and harvest interval together. Mix the specified product into a bucket half-filled with water, mix well, then add the remaining specified water. Spray uniformly without overlap. No spreader or booster is required; do not add another product unless both current labels permit the combination for the crop and use.

How to Apply: Best Practices

• Identify the weeds and soybean stage: Match the listed weeds and check both 15–25 days after sowing and the weeds’ 2–4-leaf stage. Do not extend the window to older weeds by increasing the quantity.
  
• Plan one treatment in the crop: The stated limit is one use per crop. Record the application and do not turn surviving weeds or crop symptoms into an automatic repeat.
  
• Check soil moisture and weather: Ensure sufficient soil moisture and do not spray in foggy conditions. Follow the pack’s wind restrictions and avoid conditions that could carry spray into adjoining crops.
  
• Prepare the stated spray setup: Use a knapsack sprayer with a flat-fan or flood-jet nozzle. Inspect and calibrate it for the treated area rather than assuming a fixed area per tank.
  
• Mix and place evenly: Add the measured product to a bucket half-filled with water, mix well, then add the remaining specified water. Use suitable mixing equipment, not bare hands. Spray in the wind direction without overlap while preventing drift into adjoining crop fields.
  
• Assess crop response and later work: Leaf bronzing can occur after treatment, but do not assume every crop symptom is harmless or certain to recover. Seek qualified advice if concerned, and follow harvest, re-entry and following-crop restrictions.
