Product details
Targa Super Herbicide | Quizalofop Ethyl 5% EC
A selective post-emergence herbicide for the listed grass weeds in soybean, cotton, groundnut, black gram and onion. It is not interchangeable with 10% EC quizalofop products.
What it controls: The listed narrow-leaved grass weeds, matched to each crop below.
When to use it: After weed emergence; the manufacturer gives a 2–3-leaf to flowering-stage weed window.
What to include: The correct 5% EC product, crop-specific dose, 150–200 L water/acre and supplied-pack restrictions.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌱Treats visible grass weeds: Post-emergence use allows the target weed to be identified before treatment. It is not a general soil-residual programme.
- 🎯Defined crop selectivity: The manufacturer lists five crops. That does not extend use to every broadleaf crop or make drift onto other crops acceptable.
- 🍃Leaf uptake and internal movement: The active enters weed leaves and moves toward growing tissue, rather than working only at the point touched by spray.
- ⚙️Stops a process needed for growth: ACCase inhibition prevents susceptible grasses from making the fatty materials required for normal development.
- 📋Clear formulation distinction: This is 5% EC. Keeping the concentration visible helps prevent copying a product-volume rate from Sakura 10% EC.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Targa Super is a systemic grass herbicide. “Systemic” means the active ingredient moves within a treated weed; it does not mean that every plant or every weed species is a suitable target.
- Treat emerged weed leaves: The manufacturer explicitly describes absorption through the leaf surface. Use the post-emergence route rather than an unverified soil or pre-sowing treatment.
- Movement carries the active: The absorbed active moves inside the weed toward growing tissue, where new growth is being produced.
- Grass growth is interrupted: Quizalofop ethyl blocks ACCase and therefore fatty-acid production in susceptible grasses. Weed response varies with weed condition and application circumstances.
Both Targa Super 5% EC and Sakura 10% EC contain quizalofop ethyl, so changing between them is not a change from Group 1. Use monitoring and appropriate integrated weed management; no fixed kill time or residual-control duration is promised here.
Target Crops & Pests
The listed grass-weed names follow the exact-product manufacturer tables. Species names help distinguish targets when local common names vary.
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Soybean | Grass weeds
|
| Cotton | Grass weeds
|
| Groundnut | Grass weeds
|
| Black gram | Grass weeds
|
| Onion | Grass weeds
|
This is not a broadleaf-weed or sedge-control programme. Do not apply to rice, wheat or another grass crop on the assumption that selective means safe on all crops. Cotton targets are retained, but its numerical programme is withheld below.
Dosage & Application Guide
Manufacturer programme for foliar treatment of emerged grass weeds. The original acre units are retained. The shared manufacturer water and weed-stage cells explicitly span all five crops.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soybean | 300–400 ml | 150–200 L | See note* | See note* |
| Cotton | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
| Groundnut | 300–400 ml | 150–200 L | See note* | See note* |
| Black gram | 300–400 ml | 150–200 L | See note* | See note* |
| Onion | 300–400 ml | 150–200 L | See note* | See note* |
For the supported rows, the manufacturer states the 2–3-leaf to flowering stage of weeds. This is a weed stage, not a crop flowering direction or a fixed day after sowing.
*Cotton’s dose is withheld because the reviewed manufacturer page contains inconsistent cotton-rate entries. Use the supplied current label to resolve the complete cotton programme before application.
A current exact Indian pack leaflet was not available. No PHI, independent per-litre rate, fixed repeat interval or numerical re-entry period is established here. The other four rows retain the manufacturer’s 150–200 L/acre water recommendation; do not substitute a retailer’s generic pump recipe.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match crop and weed: Identify the crop and listed grass weed before selecting the treatment. A field containing broadleaf weeds or sedges may require a different management decision.
- Confirm the complete programme: Check the current pack for the crop dose, harvest restrictions and equipment directions. Resolve the cotton-rate uncertainty before using this description for that crop.
- Calibrate by area: Measure the area and distribute the labelled volume evenly. One filled pump does not represent one acre unless calibration establishes that coverage.
- Treat weed foliage: Use the supported leaf-applied route and prevent drift. Do not infer an approved pre-emergence or soil application from the fact that the active later moves inside the plant.
- Avoid unverified additions: Follow the supplied pack’s mixing and weather directions. No blanket adjuvant, tank-mixture, perennial-weed higher rate or rainfast guarantee is supplied here.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Targa Super control all weeds?No. The supported programme is for the listed grass weeds in five crops. It is not an all-weed solution and no broadleaf-weed or sedge programme is provided.
2. Why is the cotton dose missing?The exact-product manufacturer page gives differing cotton-rate entries. Rather than choose one without evidence, this description withholds the cotton programme until the supplied current label resolves it.
3. Can I use the Sakura dose for Targa Super?No. Sakura is a separate 10% EC product, while this entry is Targa Super 5% EC. Use the instructions for the exact formulation and crop, not an assumed volume substitution.
4. Can I use a 15-litre pump recipe from another listing?Not as a substitute for the crop’s area rate and calibrated water use. This description does not provide a universal concentration or tank recipe.
5. What harvest interval applies?No current exact-brand PHI was established from the manufacturer page. Obtain the crop-specific waiting period from the supplied pack. The weed-stage window and any weed-response time are not harvest intervals.
