HerbicidesTanoshi Herbicide (Metribuzin 70% WP): The Ultimate Weed Control Guide
Are tough weeds like Phalaris minor (Gulli Danda) stealing nutrients from your Wheat, Potato, or Sugarcane crops?
Meet Tanoshi, a powerful and affordable herbicide brought to you by IFFCO MC (a joint venture of IFFCO and Mitsubishi). Unlike generic weed killers, Tanoshi uses high-quality Metribuzin 70% WP to stop weeds before they damage your yield. It is the smart choice for Indian farmers looking for "Right Quality at the Right Price."
Best For: Controlling grasses and broadleaf weeds in Wheat, Potato, Soybean, Tomato, and Sugarcane.

8 topicsWhy farmers choose itWhy Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️ Fast & Effective Action: It quickly stops the weed's ability to process sunlight, killing them from the inside out.
- ?️ Broad Spectrum Control: One product handles both tough grasses (like Phalaris) and broadleaf weeds (like Bathu) simultaneously.
- ⏳ Long-Lasting Protection: It stays active in the soil for 30 to 60 days, preventing new weeds from germinating after you spray.
- ?️ Unbeatable Value: At roughly ₹160–₹200 per acre for wheat, it is far cheaper than manual weeding labor.
- ? Dual Power: It is "Ambimobile," meaning it attacks weeds through both their roots (soil) and their leaves (spray).

| Brand Name | Tanoshi |
| Technical Name | Metribuzin 70% WP |

| Chemical Group | Triazinone |
| Formulation | Wettable Powder (WP) |
| Toxicity Label | Blue/Yellow Triangle (Slightly Hazardous) |
Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Tanoshi works by starving the weed. It targets the plant's chloroplasts (the kitchen of the cell).
- Absorption: The herbicide is absorbed through the weed's roots (from the soil) and leaves (from the spray).
- Blockage: It moves into the plant and blocks the "D1 Protein" in Photosystem II.
- Elimination: This stops photosynthesis. The weed can no longer turn sunlight into energy. It turns yellow (chlorosis), dries up, and dies.
Note: Crops like Potato and Sugarcane are safe because they have special enzymes that break down the chemical before it hurts them.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Never overdose, especially on sandy soils.
How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wheat | 100 g (Med Soil) - 120 g (Heavy Soil) | 100 - 120 L | ~1 g | 120 |
| Potato | 300 g | 300 L | ~1 g | 30 |
| Sugarcane | 300 - 400 g | 300 - 400 L | ~1 g | 60 |
| Tomato | 300 g | 300 L | ~1 g | 30 |
| Soybean | 200 - 300 g | 300 L | ~0.8 g | 30 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Note: Dosage is in Grams (g) because this is a powder.
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: For Wheat, apply Post-Emergence (30-35 days after sowing). For Potato/Soybean, apply Pre-Emergence (within 2-4 days of planting).
- Mixing (The Paste Method): Do not dump the powder directly into the big tank. First, mix the powder in a small bucket with a little water to make a smooth, thin paste. Then add this paste to the main tank.
- Coverage: Use a "Flat Fan" or "Flood Jet" nozzle. Do not use fine mist nozzles. Agitate (shake) the tank continuously to keep the powder from settling.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How much does Tanoshi cost per acre for wheat?
Tanoshi is very economical. For a 100g dose used in wheat, the cost is approximately ₹164 to ₹200 per acre (based on 2024 prices).
2. Can I use Tanoshi on sandy soil?
No. You should avoid using Tanoshi on very sandy soils. The chemical moves too easily in sand and can wash down to the crop roots, damaging the plant (phytotoxicity).
3. Can I plant Mustard immediately after a crop treated with Tanoshi?
No. Mustard is highly sensitive to Metribuzin residues. If you used Tanoshi on your previous crop (like Soybean), you must wait at least 90-100 days before planting Mustard.
4. Why do I need to shake the tank while spraying?
Tanoshi is a "Wettable Powder," meaning it suspends in water rather than dissolving completely. If you stop shaking, the powder settles to the bottom, causing an overdose at the start and no effect at the end.
5. Where can I buy Tanoshi in Telangana?
You can buy it at authorized IFFCO MC dealers, "IFFCO Bazar" centers in districts like Mahabubnagar and Siddipet, or online via RythuKart and BigHaat.
