Product details
Zoomer Herbicide | Oxyfluorfen 2.5% + Isopropylamine Salt of Glyphosate 41%
SC
A non-selective contact and systemic herbicide for permitted tea and non-crop weed-management
uses.
Weed scope: Grasses, sedges and broad-leaved weeds, with the tea and non-crop
target lists kept separate.
Timing: Post-emergence use is described for non-crop areas. Confirm the exact weed
stage and placement for the intended site before application.
Important distinction: This two-active SC premix is not interchangeable with
glyphosate alone. Protect desirable plants.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🍃 Contact and systemic activity: Combines
local contact action with systemic activity against susceptible weeds.
-
🌾 Several weed groups: Covers grasses,
sedges and broad-leaved weeds within the permitted site-specific target list.
-
🌱 Annual and perennial scope: Offers a
weed-management option for listed annual and perennial weeds, without promising control of every species or resistant population.

How It Works: Mode of Action
-
Glyphosate interrupts amino-acid production: It inhibits EPSPS, an enzyme involved in making aromatic amino acids needed for plant
growth.
-
Oxyfluorfen damages membranes: It inhibits PPO, triggering lipid peroxidation that disrupts susceptible weed-cell membranes in
light.
-
Contact and systemic effects act together: The product combines contact injury with systemic activity. Interference with these
essential plant processes can lead to the death of susceptible weeds.
These are two herbicide modes of action, not three. Include both HRAC Groups 14 and 9 in resistance planning.
Non-selective activity can also injure desirable plants; results depend on the weed, resistance status and correct
application.
Target Sites & Weeds
Use these site–weed pairings only where permitted on the supplied current Indian pack. A tea listing does not
permit spraying over tea foliage or other desirable vegetation.
| Site |
Target weeds |
|---|---|
| Tea |
Ageratum conyzoides; Cyperus spp.; Borreria hispida; Paspalum conjugatum; Digitaria ciliaris. |
| Non-crop areas |
Digitaria sanguinalis; Cynodon dactylon; Paspalum conjugatum; Cyperus spp.; Digera arvensis. |
Do not transfer a tea programme to non-crop land, or the reverse. These listings do not authorise aquatic,
household or other unlisted uses. The broad weed groups are not a promise to control every weed within them.
Dosage & Application Guide
Site-specific directions before measuring product
For non-crop areas, use is post-emergence: weeds must already have emerged. This does not establish an exact
weed-leaf stage, a spray placement or permission for any non-crop site. For tea, confirm the crop-specific stage and placement rather
than transferring the non-crop instruction.
Water reference for tea and non-crop areas: 500 L/ha, approximately 202.34 L/acre. Use this reference only for
the exact site permitted on the supplied current pack, together with its complete product-amount, application-method and weed-stage
directions. This water figure is not a complete application programme or a per-litre product recipe.
Before applying, obtain the complete current pack directions for the intended site: product amount, water
volume, application method, weed stage, harvest restrictions where relevant and worker re-entry. No universal product quantity,
per-litre concentration or tank recipe is provided here. Missing figures do not mean zero water or no restriction.
The pre-harvest interval runs from the final application to harvest; re-entry and repeat-treatment intervals
are separate. A missing harvest figure does not permit immediate harvesting. Do not substitute another brand, concentration or an
overseas label. No fixed repeat, rainfast, re-entry, tank-mix or adjuvant programme is implied.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Identify the site and weeds: Match Zoomer and Oxyfluorfen 2.5% + Isopropylamine Salt of Glyphosate 41% SC on the supplied pack.
Confirm the intended tea or non-crop use and target weeds before measuring product.
-
Protect desirable plants: Prevent spray or drift from reaching tea foliage, crop foliage, seedlings and other desirable vegetation.
Non-selective activity is not crop safety.
-
Use the specified placement: Follow the exact site-specific method and equipment directions. Foliar and soil activity do not, by
themselves, specify an application route or authorise a soil treatment. Do not interchange crop spraying, soil application or seed
treatment.
-
Calibrate and check weather: Calibrate equipment to the labelled area and water basis. Observe the pack’s weather and drift
precautions; do not assume a rainfast interval.
-
Check both labels for mixtures: Do not add another pesticide, fertilizer or adjuvant unless both current labels expressly permit
the proposed combination for that site and use. Follow all restrictions for each component.
-
Keep useful records: Record the site or crop, field, weeds, treated area, application date and product quantity. Observe the
applicable harvest and worker-entry restrictions before the next operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Zoomer selective to tea plants?
No. It is non-selective. A tea use listing does not permit an over-crop spray. Follow the exact
weed-placement directions and protect tea foliage and other desirable plants.
2. Are the tea and non-crop weed lists identical?
No. Tea includes Ageratum conyzoides, Borreria hispida and Digitaria ciliaris; the non-crop list instead
includes Digitaria sanguinalis, Cynodon dactylon and Digera arvensis. Both include Cyperus spp. and Paspalum conjugatum. Confirm the
intended use on the current pack.
3. Can I use a glyphosate-only recipe?
No. Zoomer also contains oxyfluorfen and is an SC premix. Do not substitute a glyphosate-only product,
another concentration or overseas directions. Count both HRAC Groups 14 and 9 in resistance planning.
4. Does post-emergence tell me exactly when and how to apply?
No. It means after weeds have emerged, but does not set an exact leaf stage or placement. The non-crop
wording must not be transferred to tea as a complete timing instruction.
5. How much product and water should go into my tank?
First obtain the complete current pack programme for the intended site and calibrate for the area. Do not
derive a universal tank recipe from pack size or from another product. Missing quantities or harvest information are not permission to
apply without water or to harvest immediately.
Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it: Read the supplied current Indian label and leaflet, including its hazard
classification, before use. Use only the permitted site, weeds and application conditions. This non-selective herbicide must not
contact crop foliage, seedlings or other desirable plants; avoid spray drift. No aquatic-use programme is
provided.
Wear all specified protective clothing and equipment. Avoid skin and eye contact and inhalation of dust,
spray mist, fog or vapour. Do not mix with bare hands. Do not eat, drink, smoke or chew while handling or applying. Keep children,
unprotected people and animals away; wash after handling and wash contaminated clothing separately.
Store securely in the original labelled, closed container, separate from food, feed and water and out of
reach of children. Follow the pack’s storage and weather restrictions. Keep product, drift, leftovers, runoff and equipment
washings away from non-target areas and from entering ponds, rivers, wells, drains or other water sources. Never reuse empty
pesticide containers; follow the pack and applicable disposal requirements.
If exposure or illness occurs, stop work and seek medical help promptly with the product label. Do not
self-administer antidotes or attempt home remedies. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting
unless directed by a medical professional.
