X-Weed - Quinclorac 250 g/L SC - Mahindra Summit
X-Weed Herbicide by Mahindra Summit
X-Weed contains quinclorac 250 g/L SC, a synthetic-auxin herbicide. Mahindra’s exact pack image confirms this concentration directly; it is not inferred from the website’s percentage shorthand.
Composition: quinclorac 250 g/L SC.
Verified scope: The manufacturer’s crop-and-target pairings are listed below.
Before use: Confirm the product rate, water volume, method and waiting period on the supplied label.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌾Rice-focused scope: The manufacturer recommendation table is for rice.
- 🌱Barnyard-grass target: Echinochloa species are specifically named.
- 🍃Creeping-panic target: Panicum repens is also included in the rice table.
- 🧪Explicit concentration: The official pack declares quinclorac 250 g/L SC.
- 🔄Current group identity: HRAC classifies quinclorac in Group 4/29, useful when planning mode-of-action rotations.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Quinclorac is classified by the current HRAC lookup as Group 4/29: auxin mimics and inhibition of cellulose synthesis. These activities affect susceptible weed growth.
- Plant uptake: Mahindra describes foliar absorption and movement within treated weeds.
- Auxin-related activity: Quinclorac disrupts normal growth signalling in susceptible weeds.
- Cellulose-related activity: The current HRAC classification also identifies inhibition of cellulose synthesis; follow the exact rice programme on the label.
Changing brand names does not necessarily change the mode of action. Follow a crop-specific resistance-management plan and all limits on repeat applications.
Target Crops & Weeds
Mahindra’s X-Weed recommendation table names the following crop-and-target pairings.
| Crop | Target Weed(s) |
|---|---|
| Rice |
|
Mahindra describes use in direct-seeded and transplanted rice. Confirm the exact growing-system programme, crop stage and weed stage on the supplied pack; do not extend the two listed targets to all grasses or weeds.
Dosage & Application Guide
Check the current pack before measuring product. The public manufacturer table uses a combined g/ml dose header without identifying the product unit. Quantitative directions are withheld until that ambiguity is resolved.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Product rate | Water volume | Method | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rice | Confirm label unit | Confirm label basis | Follow label | Not verified |
The manufacturer’s product-dose heading is per hectare, not per acre. No operational dose or acre conversion is supplied from the ambiguous unit heading. The water column also needs its area basis confirmed on the pack.
PHI means the interval between the last application and harvest. An unverified waiting period does not mean zero days.
Confirm crop stage, equipment, repeat interval, maximum applications, re-entry and weather restrictions. No universal per-litre or tank recipe is inferred.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match the target: Check the full X-Weed identity, crop and target against the supplied label.
- Measure correctly: Use the label’s explicit product unit and water volume; do not substitute a hectare quantity for an acre quantity.
- Follow the approved method: Use only the preparation, equipment and application route specified on the pack. Do not assume a tank mixture is permitted.
- Protect people and water: Wear the specified protective equipment and prevent drift or runoff into water and neighbouring crops.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the pack confirm the 250 g/L identity?Yes. The manufacturer’s X-Weed pack image explicitly reads quinclorac 250 g/L SC. The website’s separate 25% wording is not used to infer a concentration basis.
Which crops are listed?The manufacturer crop-and-target table above gives the verified scope. Check the supplied pack before deciding whether the product fits your crop.
What is the dose per acre or per litre?The public table does not identify an unambiguous product unit. Obtain the complete label directions before measuring or converting a rate.
Can it be used in direct-seeded and transplanted rice?Mahindra describes both rice systems. Confirm the crop stage, weed stage, application method and complete programme for your rice system on the current pack.
Can I mix X-Weed with another rice herbicide?No specific partner, dose or mixture approval is established here. Check both current labels and crop-specific advice instead of relying on a general combination claim.
Safety & Disclaimer
