Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌽A maize-specific option: Designed for the listed weed-control use in maize, also called corn.
- 🌾Grass-weed coverage: The listed scope includes barnyard-grass and signal-grass groups.
- 🌿Broadleaf coverage: The manufacturer also lists carpetweeds in the Trianthema group.
- 📅A clear weed-stage window: Crystal specifies the 2–5-leaf weed stage rather than an unrestricted late-season treatment.
- 🔄A distinct action group: Group 27 offers a defined mode of action for a suitable maize weed-management plan.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Tembotrione stops susceptible weeds making pigments that protect their green tissue from light damage.
- The treatment reaches susceptible weeds: Correct post-emergence application exposes the listed weeds after they appear.
- Protective pigments cannot form normally: Tembotrione blocks an enzyme needed to make pigments that protect the weed’s green tissue.
- Weed growth breaks down: Affected tissue becomes pale or bleached, loses normal function and the susceptible weed dies.
Use an appropriate resistance-management programme. Changing brand names without changing the mode-of-action group is not a rotation.

Identify the weed carefully. A listed group is not a promise of control over every grass or broadleaf weed.
Dosage & Application Guide
The product amount is Crystal’s listed per-acre figure. Water and PHI below are separate CIBRC formulation references for tembotrione 34.4% SC and must be confirmed against the current Tambola pack. The exact surfactant and complete application directions still need confirmation.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maize (corn) | 115 | Approx. 202.3 500 L/ha |
See note* | 55 |
Crystal lists post-emergence treatment at the 2–5-leaf weed stage. Do not choose a surfactant type or amount from another tembotrione brand’s directions.
*No independently labelled per-litre rate is supplied. Do not derive a tank dose from the area quantities. PHI is the interval from the last treatment to harvest.
The generic water and 55-day harvest reference names Echinochloa spp., Brachiaria spp. and horse purslane (Trianthema portulacastrum). Confirm the complete label programme before applying that reference to another Trianthema species.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Check maize and weed stage: Use the current label’s authorised maize stage. Crystal lists the 2–5-leaf weed stage after weed emergence.
- Confirm the surfactant: Check whether the supplied pack requires a companion surfactant, and its exact type and quantity. Do not substitute a convenient additive.
- Complete the programme first: Confirm the application route, mixing sequence, equipment, weather limits, repeat count and re-entry restriction before preparation.
- Protect nearby crops: Follow label drift precautions and prevent treatment from reaching non-target crops, gardens and water bodies.
- Do not transfer varieties or uses: Confirm any maize-variety restrictions on the current pack. Do not assume suitability for other cereals or every maize type.
- Respect harvest limits: Confirm the current pack’s harvest interval; the table’s 55-day figure is a generic formulation reference.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Tambola for maize or all cereals?The listed Crystal use is maize, also called corn. Do not extend it to other cereals without an authorised label use.
What weed stage does Crystal recommend?The manufacturer lists post-emergence use when weeds have 2–5 leaves. The maize stage and other conditions must also match the current pack.
Does it cover both grass and broadleaf weeds?Its listed scope includes Echinochloa and Brachiaria grasses and Trianthema broadleaf weeds. It does not cover every weed species.
Do I need a surfactant?Confirm the exact requirement on the current Tambola pack before preparation. Do not copy another brand’s surfactant type or rate.
Can I use the area quantity as a tank dose?No. Tank concentration depends on the authorised directions and calibrated equipment. No independent per-litre or per-tank recipe is supplied here.
