Product details
Widigo Herbicide | Pyrithiobac Sodium 10% EC
An ALS-inhibiting herbicide for the listed broad-leaved weed problems in cotton.
Crop and weed focus: Cotton and its listed broad-leaved weeds, not an all-crop or
all-weed treatment.
Growth-blocking action: Pyrithiobac sodium interferes with a process susceptible
weeds need for normal growth.
Plan the treatment: Match the exact pack’s first application timing, product
quantity, method, water, coverage and harvest restriction before measuring.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌿 Broad-leaf weed management: The cotton use
includes several broad-leaved weed groups, including Trianthema, Amaranthus, Chenopodium and Digera.
-
🌱 Disrupts weed development: ALS inhibition
interferes with the amino-acid production needed for normal growth in susceptible weeds.
-
🌾 Cotton-focused use: The defined cotton use
helps match the product to a specific crop problem rather than treating all crops or all grass weeds alike.

How It Works: Mode of Action
-
ALS activity is inhibited: Pyrithiobac sodium inhibits acetolactate synthase in susceptible weeds.
-
Amino-acid production is affected: The affected process supplies branched-chain amino acids used in making proteins.
-
Normal weed growth is disrupted: Interference with this essential growth process restricts development of susceptible weeds. A
rapid or universal kill is not guaranteed.
The mode of action does not establish an application route, leaf-stage trigger or rainfast interval. Resistance
can reduce performance, and switching to another Group 2 brand is not automatically a different mode of action. Use the supplied
label’s resistance and rotational-crop precautions.
Cotton & Broad-Leaved Weed Targets
| Crop |
Selected target weeds |
|---|---|
| Cotton |
Trianthema spp.; Amaranthus spp.; Chenopodium spp.; Digera spp. |
These are selected broad-leaved targets for cotton. Check the complete weed list on the supplied Indian Widigo
label. Do not assume blanket grass or sedge control, or add another crop because a retailer groups the product with other
herbicides.
Dosage & Application Guide
Match the cotton treatment before measuring
For the listed cotton use, the water reference is 500 L/ha, approximately 202.34 L/acre. This does not
establish a product dose or a complete application programme. Confirm the exact permitted weed species, first application timing,
method, product quantity, equipment, coverage and harvest restriction on the supplied Indian pack before treating the
field.
Do not infer a foliar, soil or seed method from the EC formulation or ALS activity, and do not turn the water
reference into a per-litre or pump recipe. Do not substitute another brand, concentration or overseas label to fill a missing
instruction. A pre-harvest interval is the minimum time from the final treatment to harvest. A missing interval is not a zero-day
interval. Harvest restrictions, worker re-entry periods and repeat-treatment intervals are separate requirements.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Identify the cotton weeds: Distinguish the listed broad-leaved weeds from grass or sedge infestations before choosing
treatment.
-
Check exact identity: Match Widigo and pyrithiobac sodium 10% EC on the supplied pack. A different formulation or brand is not an
automatic substitute.
-
Obtain the complete timing and method: Use the crop and weed stages, equipment and route on the supplied pack. Do not assume a
calendar-day or leaf-count trigger from general product descriptions.
-
Measure and protect the field: Use the complete permitted quantity and calibrated water. Wear the specified protective equipment
and prevent drift and runoff to neighbouring crops and non-target areas. Do not assume a fixed rainfast interval.
-
Review mixtures and follow-up: Both current labels must permit any proposed mixture for cotton and the method. Record the crop,
field, date and product amount. Observe harvest, worker-entry and repeat restrictions before the next operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Widigo a treatment for every cotton weed?
No. Match the actual weed to the permitted cotton spectrum. Broad-leaved weed activity does not establish
control of every grass or sedge.
2. What does EC mean?
EC means emulsifiable concentrate. It describes the formulation, not the dose, nozzle, application route or
crop stage.
3. Does Group 2 mean it is interchangeable with another ALS herbicide?
No. The common mode of action does not establish identical crop tolerance, weed spectrum or use directions,
and may involve shared resistance concerns.
4. Can 500 L/ha be converted into a pump dose?
No. It is a water reference, approximately 202.34 L/acre, not a product concentration. The complete
crop-specific quantity, method, timing and calibrated area are still required.
5. Can I mix it with another crop input?
Only when both current product labels permit the proposed combination for the crop and application method.
Physical mixability does not establish crop safety or permission to add another pesticide, fertilizer or adjuvant.
Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it: Read the supplied Indian label and leaflet before opening the pack. Use only its
permitted crop, target and application method. Follow its hazard classification and handling restrictions, and wear the specified
protective clothing and equipment. Avoid skin and eye contact, inhalation and drift. Keep children, unprotected people and animals
away during handling and application. Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling or applying the product. Wash thoroughly after
work.
Store securely in the original labelled container, away from children, food, animal feed and water. Keep
product, drift, runoff, leftovers and equipment washings out of water sources and away from non-target areas. Follow the pack’s
weather precautions, equipment-cleaning instructions, beneficial-organism precautions and disposal directions. Never reuse empty
pesticide containers. Observe all applicable harvest, worker re-entry and repeat-treatment restrictions before the next
operation.
If accidental exposure or suspected poisoning occurs, stop work and seek medical help promptly with the
product pack or label. Do not self-administer antidotes, attempt home remedies or improvise treatment. Follow the supplied
first-aid directions while obtaining professional help.
