8 topicsWhy farmers choose itWhy Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️ Rapid Spreading Action: The EW formulation lowers surface tension, allowing the chemical to spread instantly across the paddy water like a uniform sheet.
- ?️ Superior Crop Safety: Unlike EC formulations, this water-based emulsion uses fewer harsh solvents, preventing leaf burn (phytotoxicity) on tender rice seedlings.
- ⏳ Long-Lasting Protection: Provides a weed-free environment for 30 to 40 days, covering the entire Critical Period of Weed Control (CPWC).
- ?️ Works in Standing Water: Specifically engineered for puddled conditions, requiring 2-3 cm of standing water to activate and kill germinating weeds.
- ? Yield Booster: Eliminates competition from "hard-to-kill" weeds like Barnyard grass, preventing yield losses of up to 50%.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Victini - Z acts as a growth inhibitor that targets weeds at the cellular level.
- Stops Lipid Synthesis: The active ingredient blocks the production of Very Long Chain Fatty Acids (VLCFAs), which are essential for cell membrane formation.
- Arrests Germination: As weed seeds try to sprout, they cannot form new cells. The shoot (coleoptile) and root fail to grow, and the weed dies before emerging from the soil.
- Selective Safety: Rice plants have a special metabolic enzyme (glutathione S-transferase) that rapidly detoxifies the chemical, keeping the crop safe while killing the weeds.
Note: This product is strictly pre-emergence. It must be applied before weeds are visible.

- Timing: Apply strictly between 0 to 3 Days After Transplanting (DAT). Effectiveness drops significantly after day 5.
- Mixing: Shake the bottle well. For spraying, mix with 200 Litres of water. Can also be mixed with dry sand for broadcasting if label permits.
- Coverage: Maintain 2-3 cm of standing water in the field for 5-7 days after application. This water distributes the chemical.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not drain field water for 24 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I use Victini - Z if weeds have already emerged?
No. This is a pre-emergence herbicide. It works by stopping weed seeds from germinating. If weeds have 2-3 leaves, it will not be effective.
2. Why is the "EW" formulation better than "EC"?
EW (Emulsion in Water) is water-based, making it safer for rice seedlings (less burn), safer for the user (less smell), and it spreads faster on water.
3. Is it safe for fish in the paddy field?
No. Pretilachlor is toxic to fish. Do not use this product if you are practicing pisciculture (rice-fish farming) in the same field.
4. What is the ideal water level during application?
You must have 2-3 cm of standing water. This water acts as a carrier to spread the herbicide across the entire field.
5. How long does the weed protection last?
Victini - Z typically provides protection for 30 to 40 days, which covers the critical period when rice is most vulnerable to competition.
