Tabah - Oxadiargyl 80% WP - Parijat

Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits

• 🌱  Soil-applied weed management: Placement over the soil surface targets susceptible weeds in the crop’s establishment programme rather than treating every weed as a general foliar-spray target.
  
• 🌿  Crop-specific weed coverage: The sunflower list contains two grasses, while transplanted rice and cabbage include other weed groups. This allows selection by the actual crop and weed combination.
  
• 🌻  An early sunflower window: The pre-emergence 0–3-day window after sowing gives a defined point for planning treatment before sunflower emerges.
  
• 🌾  A separate transplanted-rice use: The 3–5-day window after transplanting helps distinguish this rice use from the sunflower programme and from direct-seeded rice.
  

Technical Specifications

How It Works: Mode of Action

1. Place the treatment on the soil: Uniform soil-surface spraying places the herbicide where susceptible weeds encounter it during the crop-specific application window. Avoid untreated gaps.
   
2. Block the PPO enzyme: Oxadiargyl inhibits protoporphyrinogen oxidase, or PPO. This disrupts normal pigment-related processes in susceptible plant tissue.
   
3. Damage susceptible weed tissue: The disrupted process leads to necrosis, meaning death of affected tissue. It does not establish equal control of established weeds, unlisted species or resistant populations.
   

Group 14 describes the mode of action, not permission to use Tabah on additional crops or at other growth stages. Changing to another oxadiargyl brand does not change the group. Use field scouting and suitable non-chemical measures alongside crop-appropriate resistance management; no duration or universal crop-safety guarantee is made.

Target Crops & Weeds

Keep each weed with its own crop entry. Digitaria spp. is a genus-level listing, not confirmation that every crabgrass species is controlled. Do not substitute a different Ludwigia species or extend the transplanted-rice directions to direct-seeded rice.

Dosage & Application Guide

Crop-Specific Timing & Uniform Soil Coverage

For sunflower, apply before crop emergence, 0–3 days after sowing. For transplanted rice, spray 3–5 days after transplanting. Confirm the separate application window for cabbage before treatment. Use a knapsack sprayer fitted with a flat-fan nozzle for uniform soil-surface coverage without gaps.

Before measuring or mixing, confirm the complete crop-specific product quantity, water volume and its area unit, and the harvest waiting period with its time unit. The sunflower and rice timing windows do not supply those quantities. Do not estimate a water requirement, derive a per-litre or tank recipe, or use another brand’s oxadiargyl directions to fill a gap.

How to Apply: Best Practices

• Match crop, establishment method and weed: Check the exact Tabah formulation and crop-specific target list. The rice entry is for transplanted rice, not another rice-establishment system.
  
• Keep the first windows distinct: Use sunflower’s pre-emergence 0–3 days after sowing and rice’s 3–5 days after transplanting only for their own crops. Obtain the cabbage timing separately.
  
• Confirm quantities before preparation: Establish product amount, water, treated area, method and harvest restriction together. Keep the harvest waiting period separate from worker re-entry requirements.
  
• Prepare the powder in stages: Once quantities are confirmed, mix the required herbicide with a small quantity of water, add the remaining water and mix well before use. Use a stick or rod, never bare hands, in an open and ventilated place.
  
• Distribute evenly over the soil: Use the flat-fan knapsack sprayer and cover the intended soil surface without gaps or unnecessary overlaps. Check the equipment for leaks and faults; never blow a blocked nozzle clear with the mouth.
  
• Protect nearby people and plants: Do not spray against the wind, in strong wind or during the hottest part of the day. Keep people and animals out of the downwind area, prevent drift and follow additional pack weather precautions.
  
• Limit mixtures and clean up carefully: Use a partner only when both current labels permit the exact mixture for the crop and route. Clean the sprayer thoroughly with water after work and prevent washings from contaminating water sources, food or another crop.
